Tampa
Attorney for Personal Injury and Wrongful Death in Auto Accidents
Each year in Florida, there are more than
250,000 auto accidents, or about 700 per day. Approximately
80% of these accidents result in some kind of personal injury
with more than 3,000 dying from their injuries. The Tampa
Bay area sees its share of auto accident deaths. In Hillsborough
County alone, there are more than 20,000 accidents per year
resulting in about 200 deaths. Many more fatal auto accidents
occur in Pinellas, Pasco, Hernando, Manatee, Polk, and other
central Florida counties.
While some auto accidents are truly accidents
without anyone being at fault, most fatal auto accidents are
caused by negligence. Whether it's a DUI in St Petersburg,
racing cars down public roads in Clearwater, or reckless driving
in Tampa, if someone is killed in an auto accident, their
family deserves to be aware of their rights and compensated
for their loss. The best place to start is by contacting a
Tampa personal injury attorney who
is experienced in wrongful death cases caused by auto accidents.
Many family members and loved ones hesitate
in pursuing a wrongful death claim caused by a car accident,
and that hesitation is perfectly understandable considering
the grief and pain the family is experiencing. But hesitation
can also be a significant mistake. Once the grief and pain
subsides, families want answers to their questions regarding
how the vehicle accident happened. Many times, although not
initially, they want justice in the name of their loved one.
But delay in hiring a law firm after a wrongful death caused
by an auto accident can result in lost evidence at the scene
of the accident, witnesses forgetting significant details,
or witnesses disappearing altogether.
