A wrongful death lawsuit is filed by family members for compensation due to a loved one's death from another's negligence or actions, covering emotional distress, lost support, and funeral costs. A survival action is filed by the deceased's estate for claims they could have pursued, like pain and suffering or medical bills before death. The key difference is that wrongful death focuses on the survivors' loss, while survival actions focus on the deceased's damages.
