Fatal Car Accidents in California
There is nothing more devastating than the loss of a loved one in a traffic collision. This is especially true if your family member was killed in an accident that was not their fault. In California, negligent driving is the main cause of fatal traffic accidents. This includes distraction, impairment, and exceeding the posted speed limit.
Following a fatal crash, family members are often left feeling frustrated and overwhelmed. Fortunately, there may be some help available. While nothing can ever replace the loss of a loved one, California law does allow the deceased victim’s next of kin to file a wrongful death lawsuit against any individuals who are legally responsible for the collision. These cases are very complex and should only be handled with the help of an experienced attorney.
