Fatal motorcycle wrecks usually occur due to a motorist’s negligence on the road in Sunnyvale. Some of the most common examples of said negligence that cause crashes are:
Determining what caused a crash requires skill, dedication, and practical knowledge. Experienced lawyers could review the evidence in detail to determine what happened and who is potentially to blame. The legal team and their group of experts working on the case could carefully examine police reports, medical records, eyewitness testimony accounts, and crash scene photographs. They could also visit the accident site to look for other physical evidence.
Wrongful death lawsuits allow surviving family members to pursue damages to compensate for the untimely loss of their loved one in a Sunnyvale motorcycle crash. While there is no set amount of recoverable damages, families can seek compensation for the losses they experienced because of their loved one’s preventable death.
A deceased person’s heirs could seek recovery of their economic losses resulting from the death. Economic losses might include the decedent’s lost wages, benefits, and other financial support that the decedent would have provided to their heirs had they lived. If the deceased person contributed to the child-rearing or maintenance of the house, the family could pursue compensation for the loss of their household services. The family could also seek recovery of funeral expenses.
Grieving family members can also seek recovery of non-quantifiable, intangible damages, which could include loss of companionship and consortium.
A trusted team of lawyers has experience working for insurance companies and could skillfully negotiate for fair and reasonable settlements.
The earlier a family reaches out to an attorney, the better their chances of receiving financial compensation are. It is easier to question Sunnyvale eyewitnesses shortly after a deadly motorcycle collision because they will have a better memory of what happened. Also, there is typically more evidence readily available in the immediate aftermath of an accident. In addition, state law generally requires a deceased person’s surviving spouse, partner, or children to file suit within two years of the death.
Losing beloved family members in fatal motorcycle accidents in Sunnyvale can permanently change the course of your family’s life. You deserve a chance to seek accountability and compensation for the loss that could have been avoided.
