Fatal Car Accidents in Connecticut
Fatal car accidents are a devastating reality for many families across Connecticut. Crashes like the one in North Haven highlight how quickly lives can change in a matter of seconds. According to recent state data, hundreds of people die in traffic collisions each year, many caused by factors like speeding, distracted driving, driver impairment, and failure to yield.
These incidents often leave families dealing with unimaginable emotional pain, unexpected funeral costs, and long-term financial challenges. The aftermath of a wrongful death can include medical bills from emergency care, the loss of household income, and the emotional burden of losing a loved one.
If your family lost someone in a fatal crash, you may have the right to pursue a wrongful death claim. Financial compensation can help cover funeral and burial expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and the emotional toll caused by the loss.
