Fatal Multi-Vehicle Collision is Underway

The California Highway Patrol is currently investigating the fatal accident.

Multi-vehicle collisions can result in extreme vehicular damage and death. A car accident is classified as a multi-vehicle collision when three or more vehicles are involved. This type of car accident is commonly caused by a “chain reaction,” when one car bumps into another, which causes the other to hit the next vehicle.

Multi-vehicle collisions are commonly caused by drunk driving, speeding, reckless and distracted driving. It can be quite challenging to pinpoint liability during a multi-vehicle collision investigation, so it is essential to hire an experienced Los Angeles wrongful death attorney to conduct an independent investigation.

Attorneys have decades of experience and can help the victim’s family in many ways. They can re-interview important witnesses, review relevant surveillance footage from the scene, and obtain the responsible party’s phone and texting records.
