The quantum of compensation based on the amount of contribution of the person( who died in accident ) towards his family. It depends upon his age and income primarily. Other parameters are his future prospect, number of dependents etc. Police case documents, Post Mortem report, documents of Medical expenses(if any) and vehicular documents are required for claim. Please contact with any competent lawyer who will properly guide you.
