Single-Vehicle Accidents in California and Wrongful Death Claims
It cannot always be assumed that a motorist bears total responsibility in a single-vehicle collision. Even if their negligence contributed to the accident, if the negligence of other parties played a role, it may be possible to seek partial compensation through a wrongful death claim. A wrongful death claim can provide compensation for damages such as funeral expenses and the loss of support and companionship from the deceased.
