Fatal accidents on Pennsylvania roads

Fatal accidents on Pennsylvania roads can be caused by negligence. When the inappropriate actions of a person, company, or entity results in a person's death, it is considered to be a "wrongful death". Negligence can be an intentional act or a momentary act of recklessness or carelessness.

It is truly tragic when an accident caused by negligence results in the fatality. To protect certain family members in these terribly unfortunate situations, state laws provide for wrongful death and/or survival actions. Pennsylvania law provides for both wrongful death and survival actions. An attorney is best able to advise family members on how the law applies in their wrongful death action.

Compensation for a wrongful death claim may include actual losses experienced by each individual survivor; the deceased's future earnings that family members would have received; and hospital, nursing, medical, funeral and estate administration expenses that they had to pay because of the injuries that resulted in the deceased's death.
