For decades, Rutzick Law Offices has helped injured clients and grieving families in St. Paul, Minneapolis, and surrounding areas of Minnesota.

When death is caused by someone's negligence or misconduct, that is, by law, referred to as a wrongful death. A wrongful death lawsuit is a civil action that is separate from criminal charges, although criminal prosecution related to the fatality may be involved.
The laws in Minnesota indicate any action to recover damages for a death caused by negligence of the medical practitioner, hospital, sanitarium, or employee of the aforementioned, shall be commenced within three years of the date of actual death.
When injury is caused to a person by misconduct or omission of any person, and the victim dies as a result of the injuries, a trustee appointed may maintain a suit for damages due to the injuries had the victim lived. The court has the right to appoint a suitable person as a trustee to obtain monetary compensation for any damages caused.
