Under Illinois law, a wrongful death suit can take place following the death of an individual who dies as a result of the negligence of another. Wrongful death lawsuits may involve medical malpractice, vehicular accidents or defective products. Normally, the decedent's family initiates a wrongful death lawsuit.
