The Decedent’s Claim that Survives to the Estate.
When a person is killed as result of an on-the-job injury or a motor vehicle crash, and he or she would have had a right to file a lawsuit against the negligent party had they survived, the rights that decedent continues to exist and will belong to the deceased individual’s estate. The claims or, the right to file the suit, “survive” the passing of the loved one. There are some obvious differences between claims that the estate can make and claims that an individual who survives an incident can make (Wrongful Death).
