When the news features reports of a wreck involving more than one vehicle, thoughts may immediately turn to concerns over the physical well-being of any victims. While it is true that car accidents often result in physical injuries that will heal over time, they may also create a financial hardship that is not felt until a few weeks or months after the initial incident. One recent crash in Connecticut may leave serious monetary damages in its wake for the victims involved.

The vast majority of dog owners take care to ensure that their pets behave properly.

Connecticut residents are aware of the danger posed by large commercial vehicles and they likely drive with caution whenever they encounter these vehicles on the roads. Unfortunately, even the most diligent driver can become a victim of a fatal wreck when his or her automobile is struck by these larger vehicles. Recently, a family filed a wrongful death suit against a company when its driver killed a loved one.
