Beneficiaries Eligible to File a Wrongful Death Claim in Maryland

Maryland uses strict rules to handle wrongful death claims. Generally, only family members have the legal right to file one of these claims. The court gives the option to an individual:

  • Spouse
  • Parents
  • Children 

However, if your family member had no children, spouse, or parents, others may qualify to file a claim. Our Maryland wrongful death lawyers will help you identify the appropriate party or parties to bring the claim.

Deadline to File a Wrongful Death Lawsuit

Maryland has a three-year statute of limitations on most wrongful death claims, per Md. Cts. & Jud. Proc. Code § 3-904. Once the statute of limitations expires, you lose the ability to seek compensation for your losses.

You can find out more about these claims with a wrongful death attorney in Maryland. Our team provides open lines of communication with a 24/7 text line, email, and phone service. Allow us to answer your questions today.

Causes of Maryland Wrongful Death Accidents

Accidents occur for many different reasons in Maryland. We stand ready to help your family if you lost a loved one in a:

Motor Vehicle Collision

Zero Deaths Maryland reported over 550 fatalities caused by car accidents in Maryland in 2021. These accidents impacted drivers, passengers, pedestrians, and bicyclists. Cars, trucks, motorcycles, and other vehicles may be involved in collisions in Maryland. 

Workplace Accident

We all face hazards each time we go to work. The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) tells us that there were over 4,000 fatal injuries in the workplace in 2020. Many of these accidents occur in industries like construction, but they may impact people in any career. 

Medical Malpractice Accident

We visit medical professionals to get help when we sustain an injury or fall ill. Unfortunately, sometimes healthcare workers act negligently. They may fail to uphold their duty of care, resulting in serious harm, including, in the most tragic medical malpractice cases, death. 

Premises Liability

A property owner or manager who fails to maintain their property may be liable for accidents like slips and falls, dog bites, and more. Property owners may be liable for negligent security and swimming pool accidents as well. Our premises liability lawyers assist families who lost a loved one in these accidents.
