Tulare County, CA — A fatal collision on Wednesday night, July 3, 2024, resulted in the death of a 47-year-old man from Rosamond in Tulare County, as reported by KBAK.

The crash was reported shortly after 10 PM.

Wrongful Death Claims

Establishing fault in a collision can depend on multiple factors. One crucial way a personal injury attorney can assist grieving families is by determining legal liability after the loss of a loved one in a traffic accident.

If another party is found to hold some responsibility for the death, the family may be eligible to file a Wrongful Death claim with the at-fault driver’s insurance provider. This claim can provide compensation to help cover hospital fees, burial costs, and the loss of support for the deceased’s dependents.
