Vehicle Accidents in California
Studies indicate that a chain reaction vehicle accident is when three or more vehicles collide as a result of an initial accident. Because so many factors must be considered when evaluating who should be at fault, determining liability can be difficult. It’s important for all injured victims involved in chain reaction accidents to seek legal representation immediately so they can start collecting facts and speaking with witnesses to help prove negligence claims.
The police are currently investigating this accident to determine what led up to the crash and if multiple people will be held liable. Once they conclude their findings, the deceased person’s family may be able to file a wrongful death lawsuit with the help of a California wrongful death attorney.
