The two people were riding in a 2004 Explorer east on Highway 20 when the vehicle left the roadway to the right, and struck a cement barrier. They were arilifted to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle where both later died. The accident is still under investigation. A portion of the highway was shut down while emergency crews worked.

What money damages are recoverable in a death claim?

Every death from an accident is tragic. When a death is the result of someone else’s negligence, certain survivors may make a wrongful death claim against those responsible. Close relatives may recover monetary damages for the loss of financial support, as well as for medical, funeral, and burial expenses, lost earnings, and in some cases for pain, suffering, and loss of love and affection. Learn more about wrongful death claims here…
