Fatal Accidents in Florida
Fatal accidents happen more often in Florida than in many other areas within the U.S. In just one recent year’s time, it is estimated that over 2,400 people were killed as a result of fatal accidents in the state of Florida. Approximately 2% of car accidents are deemed head-on crashes every year. These accidents may not happen as commonly as other accidents on our roads but, when they do, they lead to some of the most severe harm. It is imperative that families who have lost someone speak with a knowledgeable attorney about their options moving forward.
