Fatal Car Accidents

New York Fatal Car Accident Lawyers

Auto Accident Wrongful Death Claims

There is no worse tragedy than losing a family member or another loved one, especially when the loss is a direct result of someone else's negligent driving. Fatal accidents are a terrible tragedy for families. Although legal action cannot bring your loved one back, you deserve to be compensated for your losses, and for many families, wrongful death compensation awards can be the only way to survive financially.

At Restivo & Murphy LLP, we have more than 40 years of combined experience handling fatal car accidents and other auto accident claims. We represent clients anywhere in the 5 boroughs of New York City and throughout Long Island, Suffolk County, and Nassau County.

Our attorneys focus on helping clients obtain full compensation for all losses associated with losing a loved one in a motor vehicle accident, including:

  • Loss of financial support
  • Funeral and burial costs
  • End of life medical expenses
  • Loss of companionship

We do not operate as a high-volume, quick-settlement firm. Instead, our lawyers have built a strong reputation for obtaining the full level of compensation for our clients.
