The 60 freeway in Boyle Heights was the scene of a fatal Los Angeles roll-over car accident recently. While the cause of the accident is still under investigation, CBS News reports that two passengers were ejected out of their car in the crash and died on the scene.

Boyle Heights Deadly Car Accident

Roll-over car accidents have a particularly high fatality rate because of the force and speed of this type of car crash and the recent deadly car crash in Boyle Heights is no exception. Whenever there has been a car accident involving injuries or death, victims and families should consider getting in touch with Walch Law to learn more about their legal options. Here’s some things to know:

• Wrongful death: The only difference between a Boyle Heights wrongful death accident and a Boyle Heights personal injury accident is that one involves a death and one involves injuries. The goal of both is the same– to get you or your loved ones financially compensated by holding the responsible party responsible.
• Different than a criminal case: When there’s been a death, there are many instances in which there might be a criminal case as well– for instance, if the other party to this accident was driving drunk they will be charged. The civil wrongful death case and the criminal charges are two different cases that do not impact each other and may very well end in two different results.
• Two years: Known as the statute of limitations, how long you have to file a Boyle Heights wrongful death case is usually two years but can sometimes be as short as six months. Don’t delay in making this important call to Walch Law to make sure that you don’t miss the deadline to potentially get a lot of money following the loss of a loved one.
