In a wrongful death lawsuit, there are many aspects to it that for which you can be awarded in money damages. The damages are intended to help give you closure and financial compensation for the devastating experience that you have endured. One of these damages is loss of consortium. The surviving spouse can be awarded for this claim.
Loss of consortium damages are essentially to award you for the grief you experience losing a spouse and the loss of sexual relations and companionship. The Illinois Wrongful Death Act specifies that this is a claim in addition to the wrongful death lawsuit that is available to recover the losses that accompany the tragic loss of a spouse. You should be able to prove that you both were happily married and the other party was, in fact, liable for this incident. We acknowledge that this will not fix what has happened, but we hope this compensation will allow you some more closure to be awarded this for what the defendant has done.
