Who Can File a
Wrongful Death
Claim in Texas?
What is Standing in a Wrongful Death Case?
In Texas, the law provides specific family members with the right to file a wrongful death claim, known as "standing." Typically, this includes the spouse, children, and parents of the deceased. Siblings and extended family members, however, are generally not eligible to file. Determining who qualifies can be complex, but our team is here to help you understand your rights.
"Standing" refers to the legal right to bring a claim to court. In wrongful death cases, it specifically designates the family members who are eligible to pursue compensation on behalf of the deceased. Our firm has extensive experience in guiding clients through the intricacies of standing and ensuring their cases comply with Texas wrongful death statutes.
