Iowa Automobile Accident Lawyers
Helping Families of Wrongful Death Victims
Nothing is more devastating than losing a loved one as the result of an accident that could have been prevented if someone had not acted carelessly. The legal term for this type of loss is wrongful death, which is defined as a death caused by a willful or negligent act of one or more people. Just a few examples of wrongful death accident claims include the following:
- Children losing a parent whose car was hit by a driver who was driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs (DUI)
- The overwhelming loss of a child whose bicycle was hit when a distracted driver failed to stop for a red light
- Losing a spouse because of a senseless road rage incident
While no amount of money can truly compensate the loved ones for this type of loss, automobile accident lawyers in Iowa can help immediate family members receive compensations that can help them start to rebuild their lives. If you have experienced the loss of a loved one due to a wrongful act, a skilled Iowa automobile accident lawyer at Eells & Tronvold Law Offices, PLC can help.

- Knowledge of wrongful death laws: Our lawyers know the conditions that must exist to collect wrongful death damages within the state of Iowa. We can assess the details of your situation to determine if you have a case.
- Ability to handle complex cases: When auto accidents are fatal, the individual responsible for the accident, particularly in cases such as DUI, may face criminal charges, which could result in up to 25 years of jail time. While a criminal case has no legal bearing on the results of a civil wrongful death case, a lawyer must have special legal experience to handle the timing and other complications associated with these cases.
