Deaf Woman Killed in Detroit Bus Accident
There was a tragic story in the paper today about deaf woman killed in a Detroit bus accident this morning, March 2nd, on Detroit’s west side. According to witnesses, a deaf Detroit woman, known locally as Ms. Jazz, was crossing Livernois, near Courtland, when she was hit by a City of Detroit bus being test-driven for safety. The deaf woman did not survive the accident. Police are investigating the accident at this time.
I am very sorry to hear about this accident send my most sincere condolences to the family of the deaf Detroit woman for their loss.
Our Michigan car accident lawyers advise accident victims of their legal rights. For this type of auto accident in Michigan, the family members of the deceased woman may be able to make a claim for Survivor Loss Benefits. This can include payment of funeral expenses, lost wages, and loss of other services.
In addition, the injury victim may be able to file a lawsuit against the persons determined to be at fault in auto accident as well as the City of Detroit. The insurance company for the driver must still cover any injuries. In this lawsuit, the family of the deceased victim can claim damages and compensation for the injuries suffered in the accident. The insurance company for the negligent driver typically pays a settlement for this type of case.
Also, the family members of the deceased woman may have a claim for a Michigan wrongful death lawsuit against the driver that police determine was negligent and caused this accident as well as the City of Detroit. At the very least, the surviving family members should hire the best possible lawyer to look into these possibilities.
An experienced Michigan car accident lawyer can assist the family of the victim with this type of claim. The family of the accident victim should not speak with the insurance adjuster for the negligent driver before consulting with an attorney.
