WHAT IS A SURVIVAL ACTION? A survival action focuses on reimbursing the deceased person’s estate for their own losses from the accident while living , rather than reimbursing surviving family members for their grief and financial losses. The executor of the deceased person’s estate typically files the survival action on their behalf. Although the victim is no longer alive to recover compensation for their pain, suffering, and other losses, an amount won in a survival action can go to their estate. These funds can pay off any outstanding debts connected to the estate or disperse to any living beneficiaries, depending on the terms of the decedent’s will or the laws of intestate succession in Missouri. HOW CAN AN ATTORNEY HELP? An attorney can review your case and let you know whether you have grounds for a wrongful death lawsuit, a survival action, or both. Then, your attorney can help you with the required paperwork to file and negotiate with an insurance company on your behalf. Although no amount of money will ever replace your loved one, a fair financial award could bring your family justice and closure.
