Car Accident Lawyer Fresno

The effects of a car accident can last a lifetime for both the victims and their families. Our state has more than 270,000 accidents each year. While we would like everyone to walk away without any issues from accidents, this isn’t always the case. Every year, more than 3,200 people lose their lives in automobile accidents in California. Most of these accidents are the result of human error. Around 80% of all vehicle collisions occur due to reckless driving, negligence, speeding, driving while impaired, and other careless actions.

It is always difficult to lose a loved one. Even more painful is the knowledge that your loved one died in a preventable accident. Additionally, families are forced to endure endless mental and emotional suffering, as well as spending tens of thousands of dollars on medical treatment, property damage, funeral services, and more. Families who have suffered wrongful death due to the negligence of others can contact a wrongful death attorney in California to explore legal options after losing a loved one in an accident.
