What Are the Damages in My Fatal Car Accident Case?
Since your loss, your family may be having a lot of difficulties. All of you may be suffering emotionally and financially. These issues are your wrongful death damages, and you can demand them from the insurer or the other party in your case. You can also demand any damages your deceased family member may have experienced.
However, insurance may not cover all of your family’s damages. You deserve all of these damages, and a Chestertown, MD, wrongful death lawyer from our firm will pursue them for you, even if it means suing the other party. Your lawyer may be able to recover:
- Your financial damages, such as the cost of a funeral, the cost of a burial or cremation, any loss in your family’s income, any lost work-related benefits, the cost of a damaged or destroyed vehicle, and any unresolved medical bills
- Your family’s intangible damages, including mental suffering, emotional suffering, loss of companionship, loss of consortium, and loss of parenting
- Your deceased loved one’s physical and other intangible damages before they passed away

What Else Can I Expect From My Chestertown, MD Fatal Car Accident Lawyer?
Our team can handle every aspect of your case so you don’t have to worry about any legal matters at all.
Your lawyer will take on all of the following for you:
Establishing Your Family’s Damages
One of the first things your lawyer will do is help you determine what all of your family’s damages are. These can include ones you may experience in the future. It’s important to establish these particular damages now since you may not be able to demand them later.
Income statements and other documents can help establish your damages.
Establishing the Other Party’s Liability
It’s necessary to establish liability for your damages. Your lawyer can establish liability for you by identifying the negligent party and indicating each of the elements of negligence in your case.
Our team must gather evidence to demonstrate negligence. Such evidence could be data from a vehicle’s event data recorder, details in the police report, or other evidence. Your lawyer can order the police report and collect the other evidence for you.
The elements of negligence in your case include a duty of care, breach of duty, causation, and damages. Your lawyer will establish all four elements for you.
Negotiating Your Settlement or Litigating Your Case
You and your lawyer will decide together how to pursue your damages. If you decide to go through insurance, your lawyer will attempt to negotiate a settlement with the insurer. If negotiation doesn’t resolve your case, your lawyer may be able to threaten litigation. This may convince the insurer to settle.
If you and your lawyer decide to pursue your damages through suing, your lawyer will take care of the entire litigation process for you. Your lawyer can file the lawsuit for you, hire experts to corroborate your case in court, and negotiate with the judge on your behalf.
We handle all these tasks with no upfront fees.
