In a motorcycle accident, the risk for serious injury is much higher when compared to a car accident due to the lesser amount of protection. Because of this, sadly, the outcome can end in the loss of lives. When you believe that a loved one passed due to another’s negligence or recklessness, intentional or unintentional, in a motorcycle accident, then you may consider filing a wrongful death claim.

To file a wrongful death claim, there are several factors to consider in proving that it does, in fact, qualify as a wrongful death by the law. The laws regarding wrongful death stipulations vary by the state, however, they all follow the same general requirements for what must be proven. In Illinois, the claim must be filed two years from the date of the accident. Whoever files the claim will be awarded the damages deemed fair which accounts for the mental suffering and grief that their loved ones will endure. The damages would be given to the next of kin or their surviving spouse to fairly compensate them.

A wrongful death claim can bring up many emotions and is likely very difficult to work through. However, we will be with you to navigate the process and make sure that you are fairly compensated for the unfortunate loss that you had to endure.
