The tragic loss of a loved one due to a 9/11-related illness is devastating for families. In these cases, families may be eligible to file a wrongful death claim to secure compensation for medical bills, funeral expenses, and emotional distress.

Eligibility for Wrongful Death Claims

  • Family members of individuals who have died due to health conditions linked to 9/11 toxic dust
  • Health conditions must be directly connected to 9/11 exposure
  • Proof of the victim’s presence at or near Ground Zero during the exposure period

Compensation Available in Wrongful Death Claims

Families who file wrongful death claims may be eligible for compensation to cover a variety of expenses, including funeral costs, unpaid medical bills, and lost income that the deceased would have contributed to the household. Additionally, families may receive compensation for the emotional pain and suffering they have endured as a result of losing their loved one.

Challenges in Proving Wrongful Death Claims

Proving that a loved one’s death was directly caused by 9/11 toxic dust exposure can be challenging, especially when the death occurred years after the exposure. Families must provide evidence that links the deceased’s health condition to their exposure during or after 9/11. This often requires medical documentation and expert testimony to connect the illness and the exposure.
