What Compensation May Families Seek After a Fatal Crash in Greenville, SC?

After a fatal crash in Greenville, families may be able to recover compensation for funeral and burial expenses, lost financial support, medical costs related to the final injury, and the loss of their loved one’s care and companionship. The amount and types available depend on the circumstances of the case.

Under South Carolina law, the executor or administrator of the deceased person’s estate generally brings the wrongful death claim for certain surviving family members. This means one person handles the legal claim on behalf of those who may receive the recovery.

When fault is disputed, the claim may depend heavily on what happened before the collision. Investigators may look at vehicle positions, traffic controls, roadway markings, and each driver’s actions to determine how the crash occurred.

If the insurance company disputes responsibility, the process may take longer while it reviews the available information. Families may also receive requests for documents or statements while they are still handling funeral arrangements and other immediate concerns.

In some cases, the estate may also have a separate survival claim. This type of claim concerns losses tied to the period between the injury and death and is different from the family’s wrongful death claim.

If a case ends in a settlement, South Carolina rules may affect how the agreement is approved and how the money is distributed. The process depends on who is entitled to receive a share of the recovery.

Because these cases can involve both estate and insurance matters, a wrongful death lawyer can review which claims may apply and who should bring them. A lawyer can also handle communication with the insurance company during the process.
