How to Claim Compensation When a Teen Dies in a Car Accident
Losing a teenager in a car accident is a devastating tragedy no parent or loved one should ever have to face. Beyond the emotional pain, families are often left with financial burdens, including funeral costs, medical bills, and lost future income. In such cases, pursuing a wrongful death claim can help families obtain justice and financial relief.
Who Can File a Wrongful Death Claim?
In California, certain surviving family members are eligible to file a claim, including:
- Parents
- Siblings (if there are no surviving parents)
- Legal guardians or representatives of the estate
To navigate the process, it’s crucial to consult experienced wrongful death attorneys who understand the legal and emotional complexities involved.
What Compensation Can Be Recovered?
A wrongful death lawsuit may help recover damages for:
- Funeral and burial expenses
- Medical costs incurred before death
- Loss of companionship and emotional support
- Loss of future earnings the teen would have contributed
If the accident was caused by another driver’s negligence—such as speeding, distracted driving, or DUI—a Los Angeles car accident attorney can help prove liability and fight for the maximum settlement.
