Who Can File a Wrongful Death Claim?

Alabama has strict rules regarding who can file a wrongful death claim on behalf of a loved one. According to Alabama law only a personal representative of the deceased’s estate can file a claim. This person is not limited to being a family member of the deceased. If such a person does not yet exist, the court can appoint one. In all cases, the statute of limitations for filing a wrongful death claim is two years from the date of the deceased’s passing. If a claim is not filed in this time period, you will most likely lose your right to file a claim.
