A Butler, PA Fatal Car Accident Lawyer from Our Team Will Take Your Case Off Your Hands

Nobody who experiences a wrongful death should have to focus on anything but recovery. While a wrongful death lawsuit is a vital priority, it is one you should not have to handle. Let a Butler fatal car accident lawyer from our team take your case off your hands by:

Establishing Liability for the Fatal Accident

Our team will determine who is financially responsible for your loved one’s passing. We will investigate the cause of the car accident, which could lead us to liable parties. 

Anyone whose negligent actions led to the fatal accident may be liable for your economic and non-economic damages. These parties could include:

• A motorist
• A motor vehicle manufacturer
• A vehicle component manufacturer
• The seller of a secondhand vehicle
• A municipality (perhaps the city of Butler) responsible for dangerous road conditions

Each accident happens under unique circumstances. Our attorneys and investigators will waste no time in probing the fatal collision, putting together an accident lawsuit, and establishing punitive damages for your loved one’s passing.

Obtaining Evidence

To secure the wrongful death claim you deserve, we will need to prove who is responsible for the wrongful death. Negligent parties will fight, and we will be ready with evidence of their liability.

Useful evidence may include:

• Video footage of the fatal crash
• Witness accounts
• A police report
• An expert’s reconstruction of the accident

This is a brief list of evidence we seek in cases involving car accident deaths. Your fatal car accident lawyer will strive to secure all available evidence for your lawsuit.

Documenting the Toll of the Fatal Accident

The National Safety Council (NSC) explains that from a financial aspect alone, the average fatal auto crash could cost over $1 million. However, this figure does not account for the non-economic cost of losing a loved one, which is immense.

We will strive to secure documentation for every one of your damages, which may include:

• Loss of consortium (which is the loss of the decedent’s non-economic value)
• Loss of financial support (including the decedent’s income)
• Your pain and suffering
• The decedent’s pain and suffering
• Loss of the decedent’s household contributions 

If you have any other damages (and there is a strong chance you do), we can include them in your fatal car accident claim.

Calculating a Fair Settlement Target and Leading Negotiations

Our lawyers will determine exactly how much financial compensation you deserve. Losing a loved one comes at a steep price, which goes far beyond the short-term costs, and we will strive to determine the full economic and noneconomic damages of the liable parties’ fatal negligence.

42 Pa. C.S.A. § 5524(2) generally allows us a two-year time limit for wrongful death cases. While this may seem like a long period, the statute of limitations can expire more quickly than you realize. This is especially true when you are grieving the loss of a loved one.
