Estate recovery refers to the process of pursuing damages on behalf of the deceased’s estate. This includes:
Medical expenses related to the final injury or illness
Funeral and burial costs
Pain and suffering experienced by the deceased prior to death
Lost wages and future earnings the deceased would have contributed to the household
Loss of benefits or inheritance
The estate may also act as a vehicle to distribute recovered compensation to the rightful heirs or surviving family members under New Jersey law.
If you suspect wrongful death, time is critical. Here’s what you should do:
Preserve evidence: Keep medical records, accident reports, correspondence, and witness contact information.
Do not speak with insurance companies without legal representation.

A wrongful death claim compensates surviving family members for their loss. Estate recovery is focused on recovering financial losses that the deceased’s estate incurred or would have earned, such as lost wages, medical bills, and funeral costs. Both are often pursued simultaneously.
Typically, the executor or administrator of the deceased’s estate files the claim on behalf of surviving family members, such as a spouse, children, or parents. If no estate representative exists, the court may appoint one.
Under NJ law, the statute of limitations is generally two years from the date of death. It is crucial to consult a lawyer promptly to preserve your legal rights and evidence.
Potential compensation may include medical expenses, funeral and burial costs, lost financial support, and loss of companionship. In certain cases, punitive damages may also apply.
Look for firms that:
Specialize in wrongful death or personal injury
Have trial experience and negotiation skills
Provide client-centered service and transparency
Offer contingency-based representation (no fee unless you win)
