Plano Wrongful Death Lawyer Richard Armstrong comments: a great many damages sustained by wrongful death victims are intangible. "Many of the things we take for granted in a loved one are difficult or impossible to quantify when they are gone," says Armstrong.

However, in addition to tangible damages such as past and future loss of income and earning capacity, Texas law recognizes a right to recover for the loss of spousal and parental "consortium." See Reagan v. Vaughn, 804 S.W.2d 463, 466 (Tex. 1990). When a surviving spouse sues for loss of consortium of the deceased spouse, care   [more info...]
