I doubt there is any meaningful corporate money worth chasing with a civil lawsuit.

If the dead CEO inherited family wealth, maybe a wrongful death lawsuit could tap into the CEO's estate.

My guess is the lawyers will go after the carbon fiber material supplier, the hull construction company, or others involved who may have deep pockets, including liability insurance. Do not know if OceanGate has/had insurance coverage.
