Dix Hills -Serious Driving Accident onĀ  Northern State Pkwy

Early on Tuesday, October 20, an SUV tried to evade police pursuit and drove the wrong way down Northern State Parkway, according Long Island News 12. The SUV crashed into another car east of exit 41. Two people died as a result of this fatal crash around 2:30 a.m. Police closed the freeway between exits 41 and 42 after the accident.

Clearly, the car being pursued by the authorities and driving the wrong way down the freeway was at fault for causing the accident. The driver of the car that the SUV struck was killed which is why the outcome of the accident could lead to a wrongful death suit.

Wrongful death is difficult at best, and families who suffer from an unexpected loss of their loved ones face tremendous emotional loss, often compounded by financial hardships. No one is ever prepared to deal with such a tragedy. When wrongful, the death becomes a legal matter, and having experienced accident lawyers to take on your case can provide you with effective guidance and support during a time when support is needed most.

Death falls under the serious injury threshold covered by New York laws, and surviving family members have the right to sue to recover damages. Damages often include funeral
expenses, loss of income of the deceased, mental pain and suffering, and loss of companionship and protection.

Our attorneys at Palermo Tuohy Bruno offer a free consultation where we explain your rights and discuss the prospects of pursuing a case to recover damages. You owe no fees unless we recover through verdict or settlement.
