Recoverable damages include funeral and burial expenses, lost income and financial support, loss of companionship and consortium, mental anguish, and the medical expenses incurred before death. The specific damages available depend on the circumstances of the case and the relationship to the deceased.
The statute of limitations for a wrongful death claim in Maryland is three years from the date of death. It is important to consult with an attorney promptly, as critical evidence may be lost and key deadlines missed if action is not taken in a timely manner.
