Wrongful Death Claims For a Sibling

Answer:

We’re often asked if you can file a wrongful death claim for a sibling in Wyoming, and the answer to that is, yes, you can file a wrongful death claim for a brother or a sister. Oftentimes, brothers and sisters don’t have a direct loss for financial care, but sometimes they do. We actually have a case right now in which two brothers have filed a lawsuit; one of the brothers actually lived with the decedent at the time and was very dependent on the decedent for his care, comfort and society, and even financial care. That happens, and, under those circumstances, you can claim all of those things for that loss of that brother.

The short answer to the question is, yes, you can file a lawsuit for the wrongful death of a brother or sister in Wyoming. We’re happy to help you with that and other questions about wrongful death cases.
