Wrongful Deaths in Auto Accidents

While motor vehicle collisions can vary in severity, accidents that occur at high speeds or in other dangerous situations may result in the death of drivers or passengers. Our attorneys can assist with wrongful death cases involving:

• Car accidents - Fatal collisions may occur because of a variety of factors, including speeding, drunk driving, or distracted driving. Head-on collisions are some of the most common causes of wrongful deaths, and they may occur because an intoxicated or distracted driver wandered out of their lane and into oncoming traffic or because of traffic violations such as illegal passing. T-bone collisions may take place at intersections because a driver ignored a red light or stop sign, and the impact of one vehicle against the side of another can result in fatal injuries to a driver or passengers. Rollover accidents, which often occur because of reckless driving, tire blowouts, or dangerous roads, may result in the deaths of a vehicle's occupants.
• Truck accidents - Large trucks can weigh tens of thousands of pounds, and when they are involved in an accident with a smaller vehicle, the results can be catastrophic. Common causes of truck accidents include driver fatigue, improper maintenance, and overloaded trucks. Truck drivers, trucking companies, or other parties may be held responsible for the wrongful death of drivers, passengers, or others who were involved in collisions with commercial trucks.
• Motorcycle accidents - Motorcyclists have less protection than drivers or passengers in cars or trucks, and they are much more likely to suffer fatal injuries in a collision. The impact of a collision may result in severe bodily harm, and if a person is thrown from their motorcycle, they may suffer additional harm, especially if they land in the path of other vehicles. In many cases, fatal motorcycle crashes are caused by the negligence of other drivers, and this negligence may include distracted driving, failure to notice motorcycles, or violations of traffic laws.
