Big Island officials are investigating an incident which took place near Kaloko-Honokohau National Historical Park on Thursday, March 1. Around 5.50am, a male pedestrian was struck by a pumping truck, before being pronounced dead at the scene by paramedics, despite the best efforts of a female passerby and the emergency services. According to reports, it is not yet known if the pedestrian was walking in the roadway near the intersection of Queen Kaahumanu Highway, where the fatal accident occurred.

Fatal Accidents in Hawaii

Car accidents can have a huge impact on people’s lives. From a relatively minor collision that results in some fractures, bruising, and maybe a little damage to your car, to those catastrophic car accidents that lead to fatalities, every car accident leaves its mark. While those bruises might not look too serious to others, the emotional effects of car accidents can be much longer-lasting.

If you or a loved one, has sustained catastrophic injuries in a car accident, you’ll be all too familiar with the medical bills, loss of wages, and other expenses associated with the experience. Of course, if the car accident in question was a fatal accident, and your loved one never made it home, the financial consequences will pale into insignificance – only they’re not insignificant, as you’ll need to pay them somehow.

After a fatal car accident in Hawaii, you may be entitled to file a wrongful death suit to recover the cost of medical bills, expenses, and the loss of companionship you’ve suffered since your loved one’s life was cut short. Not all survivors are entitled to file a wrongful death claim but, if you qualify, some of the damages you may be able to recover include:

  • Medical bills
  • Funeral costs
  • Lost future wages
  • Loss of property or inheritance
  • Loss of companionship
  • Pain and suffering inflicted on your loved one between the time of the accident and time of death
  • Loss of consortium

While you’re grieving, a complex legal battle is likely to be the last thing you feel equipped to deal with, and that’s where an excellent Hawaii wrongful death attorney can prove worth their weight in gold.
