Bel Air South Fatal Car Accident Lawyer

The unexpected loss of a loved one can leave your family reeling and unsure of what to do. When you are ready to hold the at-fault driver accountable for their actions, our Bel Air South fatal car accident lawyer can help. We will handle all communication with the at-fault driver and their insurance provider, including the negotiation process.

Our team at the Law Offices of Adam M. Smallow will review your case at no cost or obligation. When we agree on representation, we handle evidence collection and every other aspect of your case. Our Bel Air South personal injury lawyers will field each settlement offer you receive and fight hard to obtain fair compensation for you and your family.

Recoverable Wrongful Death Damages After a Fatal Car Accident

When your family pursues compensation after losing a loved one, you can generally recover all the compensation they would have been entitled to if they had survived to file a personal injury case.

When our firm represents you, we also help you recover the following wrongful death damages:

  • Your loved one’s funeral and burial costs
  • Your loss of their financial contributions
  • Your loss of their familial contributions
  • Loss of consortium and companionship
  • Loss of guidance and support

Our investigative team will collect the documents that prove the value of your recoverable damages. We will obtain your loved one’s medical bills, receipts for their final arrangements, proof of their income, and the costs of repairing or replacing their damaged vehicle.

Maryland Law Determines Who Can Benefit From Wrongful Death Compensation

The loss of a beloved family member will impact everyone who loved them. Maryland law, though, only allows specific family members to benefit from a wrongful death case. Typically, a representative of the estate files a wrongful death lawsuit. In most cases, a representative may include:

  • The deceased person’s parents
  • The deceased person’s spouse
  • The deceased person’s child(ren)

Depending on their familial relationship and the support received from the decedent, other family members may be eligible to recover damages. The best way to understand your possible right to compensation is to get our fatal car accident attorney involved in your case right from the start.

How the Statute of Limitations Affects Your Family’s Ability to Recover Damages

In Maryland, the statute of limitations determines how much time you have to file your lawsuit. This can be a complex part of your case since the filing deadline can fluctuate based on certain factors of your case.

It can take time to recover from the unexpected loss of someone you love and be ready to deal with the legal aspects of your case. In general, your family has three years to file its wrongful death lawsuit, according to Md. Cts. & Jud. Proc. Code § 3-904. An expired filing deadline could mean:

  • Your family cannot file its lawsuit at all
  • Your lawsuit will be dismissed without being heard

With sufficient notice from you, we will help you avoid the costly consequences of filing your lawsuit too late. To ensure the statute of limitations does not expire, our fatal car accident attorney will file your case on time.
