Texas Law: Wrongful Death in Graham

The Texas Wrongful Death Act (Chapter 71) permits the spouse, children, and parents to file within 2 years of death. The survival action (§ 71.021) recovers the deceased's own damages before death. There are no caps on wrongful death compensatory damages except in medical malpractice (§ 74.301). Recoverable damages include loss of financial support, loss of companionship, mental anguish, loss of inheritance, and funeral expenses. Punitive damages under § 41.003 are available for gross negligence. Comparative fault (Chapter 33) applies — the deceased's fault reduces but does not eliminate the family's recovery (unless 51%+ at fault).
