At common law, the right to bring a claim ended when your life ended and thus there was no claim for negligent death. In the US, however, our states have passed wrongful death statutes which afford the families of loved ones who have died due to the negligence of others the ability to seek compensation. Though one can never replace a human life, the wrongful death statutes allow families some measure of compensation for that which is irreplaceable.
