Wrongful Death - Accidental Death Law Answers

Any grandchildren over age 18 may be able to petition the court to be included in the lawsuit as plaintiffs provided that the case is still in litigation.  If the case has already been settled, it is too late to include the grandchildren.  If the case has been settled, your grandmother would have signed a release of liability which would prevent Florida from being sued again in the same matter.
