A Los Angeles crash in El Segundo near Los Angeles International Airport killed Bryan Bolaños and Carlos Sicairos.
Early Saturday, a Los Angeles car crash near LAX claimed the lives of two young men and injured two others from Moreno Valley when a car flew off a freeway off-ramp.
The California Highway Patrol identified the victims as 19-year-old Bryan Bolaños and 18-year-old Carlos Sicairos.
The collision occurred just before 3 a.m. at the Nash Street off-ramp of the westbound 105 Freeway.
According to reports, a 2016 Lexus, carrying at least three people, plummeted from the off-ramp and landed in the FedEx parking lot at the airport.
The vehicle also hit a car and two pickup trucks before it stopped.
Unfortunately, two died at the scene, while at least one passenger suffered injuries. Responders then transported them to UCLA’s Westwood Medical Center.
Moreover, authorities are still investigating the cause of this Los Angeles crash near LAX.
J&M Tip: Although you might feel conflicted about collecting damages from a driver who died in the collision, you shouldn’t have to pay for the damages you incur. The deceased at-fault driver’s insurance must cover the damage costs despite their death.

How Much Does It Cost to Hire a Car Accident Lawyer?
Most car accident lawyers operate on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay no upfront costs. Instead, they take a percentage of your settlement if they win your case, typically between 33% and 40% of the final settlement amount. This percentage can vary depending on several factors:
Case Complexity: More complex cases require greater time, resources, and expertise. For example, a minor property damage case will cost less than a wrongful death case with minimal evidence. The more intricate the case, the more effort the lawyer must put in.
Attorney Experience: Lawyers with extensive experience and a proven track record may charge higher fees due to their specialized skills and reputation. Their connections in the legal community can help in settlement negotiations and achieving favorable outcomes. Less experienced lawyers might charge lower fees but may lack the nuanced approach of seasoned attorneys.
Legal Resources: Access to specialized databases, research tools, and case management software enhances representation quality but comes at a cost. Hiring consultants, investigators, or expert witnesses can strengthen your case but will also increase expenses.
While hiring a lawyer might seem costly, you generally only pay if they win your case and secure a settlement. Investing in an experienced attorney can lead to better outcomes and efficient case management, helping you receive the compensation you deserve.
