Wrongful death law in Michigan allows the surviving family members of a deceased person to seek compensation when a loved one’s death is caused by another party’s negligence, recklessness, or intentional act. Governed by Michigan’s Wrongful Death Act (MCL 600.2922), these claims must be filed by the personal representative of the deceased’s estate and can provide damages for funeral expenses, lost financial support, pain and suffering, and loss of companionship. The statute generally requires the claim to be filed within three years of the death, making it important to act promptly.
