Wrongful Death Accidents

The U.S. Department of Transportation just released the National Roadway Safety Strategy, which showed that in 2020, 38,360 people died on American roadways, an 8 percent increase despite far fewer miles behind the wheel, for a 24 percent increase per mile driven. During the first six months of 2021, there were 20,160 traffic deaths, representing an 18.4 percent increase over 2020’s already elevated total.

The death of a loved one is one of the most devastating experiences to go through.  It becomes even more so when the death was caused by negligence or oversight, and was therefore avoidable.  A wrongful death can occur in a myriad of ways, from automobiles, motorcycles, trucks, or pedestrian accidents, to premises liability, fire and slip, trip and fall accidents.  The fallout from a death event can be severe more than just mentally and emotionally.  The financial burden brought about the sudden unexpected death of a family member can also be great.  Medical and funeral costs can be high, and the loss of income formerly brought in by a close relative can wreak financial havoc on your family.  If negligence was at the source of the wrongful death of one of a close family member, then you may be entitled to compensation from the responsible individual, company, or entities’ insurance coverage.
