- DUI/DWIWrongful death is the legal term used to describe the death of another caused through negligent acts. Special statutes have been passed by state legislatures to try and provide justice to the families of injury victims who have died as the result of the wrongful acts of another. Wrongful death cases may be filed alone or as a result and/or a part of a catastrophic personal injury such as fatal car crashes, drunk driving fatalities, commercial truck (18-wheeler or tractor trailer) accidents, prescription drug injuries or medical malpractice.
