When you’re involved in a car accident, you have a right to pursue monetary compensation for the physical, emotional, and financial damages you incurred. Unfortunately, this legal right is not affected if the at-fault driver dies in the crash.
While it can be difficult to think about legal matters when dealing with tragedy, the legal system still recognizes the suffering caused by another person’s negligence. Filing a lawsuit to get paid for your injuries may look different if the other driver passes away, but there are still steps you can take to pursue justice and receive the compensation you deserve.
