Passenger Death In A Car Accident
Drivers who cause accidents that result in the death of their passengers, people in other cars or even pedestrians may find themselves liable. After a fatal car accident, you need to protect your wrongful death claim against the driver and any other people responsible.
More than 37,000 people die on roadways every year. That is equal to one person dying every 14 minutes. These fatal road crashes involve automobiles, trucks, motorcycles, or pedestrians.
When you’ve lost a loved one to a fatal car accident, you have the right to compensation from the at-fault driver. When negligence causes a fatal car crash, the legal concept of wrongful death comes up.
The family of a fatally injured car accident victim has three options:
- File a claim with the deceased’s insurance company
- File a claim with the at-fault driver’s insurance company
- File a lawsuit against the at-fault driver
