What Is Wrongful Death?

Wrongful death occurs when an individual dies due to the negligence, recklessness, or intentional act of another person, company, or entity. Common causes include:


  • Car, truck, or motorcycle accidents
  • Boating or watercraft accidents
  • Medical malpractice
  • Nursing home neglect or abuse
  • Workplace accidents
  • Defective products or premises liability incidents


In Oklahoma, surviving family members may file a wrongful death claim to recover compensation for economic and non-economic losses caused by the death.
