Fault and Wrongful Death Liability
Without more information, it is impossible to tell who is responsible for this fatal accident. However, if another driver caused this fatal Point Loma auto accident, or if a dangerous condition in a roadway caused the accident, the family of the victim may be entitled to compensation for the wrongful death of their loved one. While this accident is under investigation, the family of the man killed in this crash may benefit from speaking with an experienced San Diego wrongful death attorney who can oversee the investigation and determine whether the family may have legal rights in a wrongful death claim.
