    Suffering injuries in a car wreck is frightening, but being involved in a crash that results in death is devastating. Not only must you deal with your own injuries and property damage, but you’ll also likely feel terrible about the victim who succumbed to their injuries sustained in the crash. And if you are a spouse or relative of the person who died, you may feel emotionally overwhelmed, worried about your future finances, and ultimately lost without your loved one’s companionship.

    In Chicago, fatal car accidents claim between 300 and 400 lives annually. After all, it’s a busy city with millions of residents, creating many opportunities for severe car wrecks. Any car accident can result in fatalities, but the most common factors leading to death are driving at extreme speeds, being under the influence of drugs or alcohol, and distracted driving.

    If you or a loved one experience a car wreck resulting in a fatality, it’s essential to seek legal assistance. Morgan and Morgan can help you navigate the legal system and obtain monetary compensation for your damages. Use the contact form on our website to schedule a free case evaluation today.

    I spoke with a very nice lady named Alex. She was very apologetic, asked more questions than a prior firm I spoke with about my Social Security appeal. She was very thorough and actually asked more questions than Social Security did. They accepted my case and I am looking forward to working with them to see what can be done about my appeal.
