What Are Wrongful Death Damages?
If your loved one lost their life in an unfortunate accident that another party caused, you likely could pursue a wrongful death lawsuit.

What Can I Do to Hold the Other Party Accountable for a Fatal Car Accident?
Recovering damages will help you and your family support yourselves financially. Holding the liable party directly accountable may help in other ways. For one, it may help you and your family find some sense of closure.
Through a wrongful death lawsuit, you could hold the other party directly to account for their actions. However, for your lawsuit to be successful, you will have to prove the other party is, in the eyes of the law, liable for the incident. To do this on your own, you’d have to:
- Show (the insurance company or a judge) evidence that the other party is liable
- Show that the other party was negligent, causing harm
One of our firm’s lawyers can take care of your lawsuit and the liability issues.

How Can Our Bartlett Personal Injury Lawyer Help You After a Car Accident?
Since your loved one’s accident, you and your family may be dealing with many family and financial issues. They may even be overwhelmed right now. While our lawyer manages your fatal car accident case, you can focus on those issues. Also, our lawyer can recover your damages so your family can support itself. While we work for you, you won’t have to pay us any service fees, and we will update you regularly about your case’s status.
You can expect our lawyer to take care of the following for you and more. We will:
- Establish your compensatory damages: We can identify damages you may not know you can claim, like some intangible damages and some financial damages you may incur in the future. We will ensure your list includes all your claimable compensatory damages.
- Establish the other party’s liability: To do this, we will show (the insurance company or a judge) evidence of liability. Such evidence may be traffic camera footage or the accident, vehicle event data recorder information, and more. We must also show the other party was negligent if they owed you a duty of care, breached that duty, caused the accident, and you suffered injuries and losses.
- Communicate with other parties: Our injury attorney will answer important phone calls for you and represent your interests while corresponding with other parties. This means you can focus on your family and financial matters without taking phone calls, answering emails, or other communications.
- File the insurance claim or lawsuit: We will prepare it, serve it to the other party or a judge, and file it through the proper channel.
- Negotiate for a verdict or settlement: It may be possible to recover a fair settlement from the other party’s car insurance provider. We can either negotiate with them or sue the other party and negotiate with a judge for a fair verdict. Either way, we will fight hard for all your due damages and a fair resolution.
- Corroborate your case: If necessary, we can get additional, supportive evidence for your case. For instance, if your lawyer takes your case to court, they may get invaluable supporting testimony from a car accident reconstructionist.
