On Monday, March 8, a 16-year-old pedestrian was killed in an accident in Urbana, IA. Police report that the man was struck by a car on Interstate 380. Police are still investigating the details of the incident. So far, no charges have been filed.
Drivers have a responsibility for other people's safety. They are responsible for making sure that they do not endanger others with their actions. When a victim is killed due to a driver neglecting this responsibility, family members may wish to file a wrongful death lawsuit. Unfortunately, this is rarely simple. I have worked on many wrongful death cases, and in my experience, people will do almost anything to avoid being held responsible for an accident. But ultimately, the law is in place to protect victims and their families. With an experienced legal professional on your side, you can make sure that those responsible for your loved one's death are held accountable.
