An economic analysis of damages in fatal accident claims
<strong>Surviving dependent's financial perspective.</strong><br /> The basis of any damages calculation is to restore a plaintiff to the same financial position in which he or she would have been had the wrongful act not occurred. In other words, in the case of a wrongful death claim, the objective is to allow the deceased’s dependents to enjoy the same quality of life, from a financial perspective, as they would have enjoyed had the deceased lived. The award is thus meant to reflect the portion of the deceased’s earnings that would have gone towards the financial support of the dependents.
