Wrongful Death Case Values in Florida (2026)

Based on the limited dataset of two 2024 Florida wrongful death cases, outcomes are clustering in a notably high range between $10.5M and $14.3M, with a median and mean of $12.4M suggesting relative consistency rather than extreme outlier variance. Both cases resolved in 2024, reflecting a potentially aggressive valuation environment for wrongful death claims in Florida despite the state's $500,000 non-economic damages cap, which may indicate that economic damages and loss of support calculations are driving the bulk of these awards. However, practitioners should exercise caution in drawing broad conclusions from only two data points, as this sample size is insufficient to establish reliable predictive trends.
