How Will an Attorney Help a Car Accident Fatal Case in Maryvale?

An attorney is absolutely necessary for fatal car accident claims in Maryvale. These cases become a combination of a vehicle accident claim and wrongful death claim rolled into one. When an attorney gets involved, they will be an advocate for the family members who have lost a loved one. An attorney will have a multi-faceted role in these situations, including:

• Investigating the vehicle accident to determine liability for the incident.
• Filing both an insurance claim and a wrongful death case in civil court.
• Handling all negotiations with insurance carriers and at-fault parties to recover the closure and compensation the family needs.

Understanding Fatal Car Accident Claims

When we look at information available from the Arizona Department of Transportation, we can see that 1,057 individuals tragically lost their lives in vehicle accidents across the state during the latest reporting year. When we look at the breakdown of this data, we can see that most of these fatalities occurred on urban roadways, but a significant percentage of these incidents occurred in rural settings.

It is important for families to understand that they have a limited amount of time to file these claims. First, insurance carriers require that these incidents be reported very soon after they occur. Additionally, the wrongful death statute of limitations in Arizona is two years from the date of death. Failing to file a claim within this timeframe could result in individuals losing the ability to recover the compensation they are entitled to.
