When a wrongful death steals a loved one from your life, the pain is unimaginable and the loss profound. The loss of a spouse, parent, or child is certainly one of the most devastating losses one can suffer. Florida law recognizes rights in favor of survivors of a family member who dies as a result of another’s negligence, offering a path to justice amid grief.
At the Law Office of Mark Wolin, we bring over 35 years of experience representing grieving families throughout South Florida. Our firm is here to hold negligent parties accountable and secure the compensation you need to cope with your loss.
A wrongful death occurs when someone’s negligence, recklessness, or intentional act causes a fatality that could have been prevented. Negligence resulting in the loss of life can involve many different circumstances, including car and motor vehicle accidents, construction accidents, medical malpractice, and many others. This legal claim allows survivors to seek justice and support after an irreplaceable loss.
Even as you mourn, pursuing a claim can provide closure and financial stability.
Wrongful deaths stem from a variety of preventable incidents. At the Law Office of Mark Wolin, we’ve handled cases involving:
The death of a loved one leaves lasting wounds. While the physical loss is final, the emotional and practical impacts endure.
Wrongful death cases are emotionally and legally complex. Because the statute of limitations for wrongful death actions in Florida is two years—shorter than the four years for many other claims—it’s critical to consult an attorney sooner rather than later. Substantial investigation and technical pre-suit requirements must often be completed, and insurers may exploit delays or deny liability to minimize payouts.
At Mark Wolin’s Law Office, We Will:
Our investigative journalism background and trial expertise ensure we honor your loved one’s memory with a strong case.
The value of a wrongful death claim reflects the survivors’ losses, both tangible and intangible, under Florida’s Wrongful Death Act.
Mark Wolin has secured substantial settlements and verdicts for families in Miami-Dade, Broward, and Monroe Counties, working with economists and experts to capture your full loss.
In Florida, the statute of limitations for wrongful death cases is two years from the date of death (per 2023 legal updates). This shorter timeline, compared to four years for other claims, means acting quickly is essential to meet investigative and legal requirements. Delays can bar your claim entirely.

How do I know if I have a wrongful death claim?
If negligence—like a crash or malpractice—caused your loved one’s death, you may have a claim. A consultation can confirm.
Who can file a wrongful death claim?
Surviving spouses, children, parents, or estate representatives can file under Florida law.
What evidence proves wrongful death?
Death certificates, accident reports, medical records, and witness statements are key.
How long does a wrongful death case take?
Cases can take months to years, depending on complexity, disputes, and trial needs.
Will I need to go to court?
Many settle, but we’re prepared to litigate if the offer isn’t fair.
What if the death was partly their fault?
Florida’s comparative negligence may reduce recovery, but you can still claim if others were negligent.
How much is my wrongful death case worth?
Value varies by losses like income, support, and suffering. A review estimates your claim.
Our client’s wife was admitted to hospital as a suicide risk. Unfortunately, her psychiatrist and the hospital failed to implement and follow appropriate suicide precautions, and while under their care, she took her own life. Through experts in psychiatry and nursing, we helped prove that if appropriate suicide precautions had been in place and followed, this tragic loss would not have occurred. A confidential and substantial settlement was reached shortly afterwards.
