WOODARD, Judge.

Both the Plaintiffs and Defendants appeal the trial court's judgment in this legal malpractice suit. We reverse the damages awarded to Randi Guidry because she is not a proper party to recover wrongful death or survival damages. We vacate the trial court's JNOV, reinstate the jury's verdict, amend its judgment to increase the quantum of damages for pain and suffering, and render.
