When multiple family members survive the deceased, how are wrongful death damages divided among them?

Under Pennsylvania law, wrongful death settlements or jury awards get divided as follows:

• If there is a spouse, the first $30,000 is allocated to the spouse. The remainder is divided between the spouse and children.
• If there is no spouse, then the full award is divided between the surviving children. If there are no surviving children, then the full amount is divided between the deceased’s parents.
