Wrongful Death

[Budington]

Am I correct? I've tried to figure this one out on my own. I think I know the difference but I want to be sure.

It's medical malpractice if a licensed medical professional is involved, otherwise it is called wrongful death?

Jeeez, I need more information. If a doctor makes a medical mistake leading to death, it is medical malpractice and a cause of action for wrongful death.  If someone drives a car into a person and causes a death, the cause of action is for wrongful death. What is the reason for the question. I can give a better answer if you give me some facts.
