Who Can File a Wrongful Death Lawsuit in New London?
In Connecticut, wrongful death claims must be filed by the executor or administrator of the deceased person’s estate, not by family members directly. This representative, often named in the will, acts on behalf of the surviving family members and the estate itself. If your loved one did not designate an executor, the court will appoint someone to serve in this capacity, usually a close family member.
