Who can receive compensation in a wrongful death lawsuit?

In South Carolina the immediate family members are the beneficiaries. If there are no surviving family members, the heirs of the deceased are the beneficiaries. The executor or administrator of the estate will be the person who files for wrongful death on their behalf.
