How Wrongful Death Lawsuits Work in Illinois

A personal representative of the deceased’s estate is responsible for filing a wrongful death claim in Illinois. This is often a close family member such as a spouse, child, parent, or someone legally appointed to represent the estate’s interests.

The Illinois wrongful death statute of limitations generally gives you two years from the date of death to file a claim. However, certain situations, like cases involving government entities or medical malpractice, may have different deadlines.

At Mahony Law, we help you realize your rights and guide you through every step of the legal process. From identifying who can file the claim to making sure all deadlines are met, we ensure your case is handled with care and urgency.
