insurance claims

[butterfly55]

can anyone give me a rough indication of what i would expect to receive in compensation of an accident in which my husband and son who were passengers were killed

[Ethel]

It is impossible to say. Far more information is needed

Did the accident happen in the UK Who was to blame - who caused the accident?
Was there anything your husband and / or son could have done to prevent it or at least minimise the consequences?

Was the person responsible insured? If not, has that person got assets?

The ages of your husband and son will make a difference; as will whether you were financially dependent on either of them.

There are so many variables it is impossible to give a straight answer.

What a dreadful situation.
I agree totally with Ethel.
Do you have a solicitor?

[NORMANTHEDOG]

i hate to say this,but are you on a wind up here.

[factor-fiction]

Who was driving?
Has this happened or is it a hypothetical question?

Have to agree with Norman. Having dealt with far more of these cases than I should see, we rarely see people asking how much they are likely to get for the deaths of immediate family members, but Ethel has got it spot on in that it's not that straight forward.

There is no compensation, I'm afraid.

No amount of money will bring back your husband or son.
