Fatal accidents caused by negligence in Orange County California and across the State legally result in what is known as a wrongful death. The families of those who are killed in fatal accidents may file a wrongful death action in order to recover final expenses as well as lost income and other financial damages.
There is absolutely nothing which can make up for or replace your beloved family member. However, this loss will have a major impact on you and your family. You will miss many important events and moments in every day life which you would have shared with them. In many cases, the family member provided vital income for your family and California law provides the rightful opportunity to recover appropriate financial damages.
Usually, these cases involve the insurance of the person or parties responsible for the fatal accident. If the accident was caused by a commercial vehicle or by someone who was at work the employer also shares in the liability for your family’s loss.
