Deadly Car Crashes in Idaho

Fruitland, ID - Robert Giles Dies in Head-on Collision on US 95 at MP 63

Fatal car accidents, especially those involving multiple drivers, can occur on any Idaho roadway, from urban streets to rural highways and higher-speed interstates. No matter the cause of the crash or location of the incident, if you were hurt or lost a loved one in an auto accident in Idaho, you may be entitled to compensation from the at-fault party.

When a victim dies as a result of the carelessness or wrongdoing of another motorist, a wrongful death claim may be made. In essence, it gives families a chance to be compensated for any financial losses due to their loss. This might include funeral and hospital expenses, as well as lost wages.

It is difficult to deal with the loss and anguish of a loved one, particularly when such a loss occurs in an avoidable vehicle wreck. In addition to the psychological grief, families often experience lingering financial difficulties. You may be able to pursue legal compensation to ease your financial burdens if you think that the carelessness of another driver caused the death of your loved one.
