Wrongful death can be caused by almost any kind of negligent act, including a car accident or collision, drowning, slip and fall, medical malpractice, construction site accident, defective product, explosion, or bike accident. If the wrongful death arises from gross negligence or reckless conduct, Massachusetts allows for the imposition of punitive damages.
