Legal Questions That Arise After A Fatal Pedestrian Crash in Winslow Twp., NJ

Families who lose someone in a pedestrian fatality tend to face funeral and burial costs, lost future income the person would have earned, and the loss of guidance and companionship that person provided. These losses can affect a household well beyond the immediate aftermath of the crash.

New Jersey law gives families two years from the date of a loved one's passing to file a wrongful death claim under the state's Wrongful Death Act.

New Jersey also allows a separate survival action, brought on behalf of the deceased person's estate, to recover for pain and expenses that existed between the crash and the time of death. 

A wrongful death lawyer can help families determine whether both a wrongful death claim and a survival action apply to their situation. A lawyer can also help gather evidence, such as witness statements, before it becomes harder to obtain.

At Metro Law, we understand the uncertainty that families face after the loss of a loved one. If you have questions about your case, our team can go over how New Jersey's wrongful death act may work for your situation and how to proceed.
