Ridgeville, SC - Driver Killed in Head-On Crash on I-26 near Volvo Car Dr

The impact of two cars crashing head-on has the potential to be devastating. These types of collisions are known to result in permanent damage for those involved. Even though they only account for 2% of collisions each year, you will almost likely suffer significant injuries. Head-on collisions account for 10% of all road deaths nationwide, and thousands of fatalities are reported annually in the United States.

It is more than upsetting when a family member passes away suddenly and without warning. An investigation must be started whenever there is even the remotest chance that the death may have been brought on by the carelessness, recklessness, or criminal intent of another person. If a loved one dies in a vehicle accident, you could be eligible to file a claim for compensation against the negligent parties. You could be able to use this to replace the major earner’s income, pay for your funeral and medical expenses, and receive compensation for the emotional distress you’ve experienced because of the loss.

A “wrongful death” is defined by South Carolina law as a death that was caused by someone else’s carelessness, negligence, or conduct of a crime. If the victim was still alive and had been harmed as a result, they should have been given the opportunity to make a claim against the person or business that perpetrated this unlawful act or omission and receive compensation. We want to help you recover after a devastating loss.

At Monge & Associates, helping families who lost a loved one as a result of someone else’s negligence has always been our main priority. After a fatal accident, our attorneys help the surviving family members file a claim against the at-fault parties in order to obtain just compensation. You should not be responsible for paying for a family member’s funeral and other accident-related costs if they died as a result of another person’s carelessness.
