Construction worker suffers minor injuries, after an accident on the Milton-Madison U.S. 421 bridge in Madison, Indiana

According to the Milton-Madison Bridge Project, crews closed the bridge around 2 a.m. Tuesday after a steel bearing, about four-feet in diameter, dislodged between the bridge and a pier. The project manager closed the bridge believing it is unsafe to cross. The worker was not seriously injured. The bridge was due to be reduced to one lane on Thursday and to close completely on Friday for about a week. Now, the bridge will remain closed until the new bridge is slid into place, a process that is scheduled to begin on Thursday.

After a Louisville wrongful death, families need help to begin recovering

When someone dies as a result of negligence, the family left behind must deal with loss, sorrow, and anger. Not only are they left trying to handle emotional trauma, they must make many decisions about how to move forward in life, especially when outstanding bills, lost income, and insurance claims are involved.

In Kentucky, the law recognizes these hardships for loved ones of wrongful death victims, and allows for financial recovery through a wrongful death claim. This type of claim helps families move forward both financially and emotionally after a tragedy.
