Fatal accidents happen when various conditions are met, including:
- High speeds
- Trucks
- Drunk driving, especially when combined with high speeds and trucks
- Trains
In many instances, high speeds and drunk driving may be considered to be the negligent behavior that causes heinous injuries and wrongful death in vehicle accidents. If a loved one died in a fatal accident, contact an accident attorney as soon as possible. Our experienced fatal accident attorneys advise you of your rights when wrongful death is involved in an accident.
Filing a case because of a wrongful death caused by a fatal accident must be done within a certain time frame because of California’s statute of limitations. As soon as you are able, contact a California fatal accident attorney to get your case started. If heinous behavior is found to be a contributing factor in the death of your loved one, you may be entitled to additional compensation for your loss and to compensate for your standard of living.
