What is the name of your state? Virginia
My sister was killed while at her job. She was walking up an alley between buildings where she was employed. A very large and wide delivery truck was backing up in the alley. My sister had her cell phone to her ear and didn't hear the backup beeps of the truck. It was a very noisy alley. There were no mirrors on the alley's walls (although they put them up the next day after my sister was killed). So the driver didn't see her and ran over her and killed her. She left behind 2 kids and was a single mother. One son, 16 and a daughter 19. I am executor/trustee of her estate. Her place of employment is reviewing the accident to see if it is conpensatable for workmans comp. clainm. Should I pursue a wrongful death for the children?
