OHP: Angelica Petty Injured, Arizona Man Dead in Blaine Co. Crash

CRASH INVESTIGATION NEEDED

According to the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), approximately 40 percent of car collisions take place at or near road intersections. The cause is usually related to running a stop sign or a stoplight. Some of the reasons drivers blow through stop signs include impatience, reckless driving, and distracted driving. Candice Bond, an experienced auto accident attorney, said such cases warrant an independent probe to protect a victim’s rights.

“It is imperative to come to a determination of the exact cause of these types of accidents. An attorney has the resources to review applicable insurance coverage, hire expert witnesses, run background checks, and locate witnesses. We carefully guide the family of the victim through the process,” said Bond, a Managing Partner with Bond Legal.

“In addition to a police report, an attorney will carefully review what may have contributed to the crash,” added Bond, a national analyst for Accident Injury News. “A lawyer has the resources to hire expert witnesses, conduct background checks, locate witnesses to the crash, and review applicable insurance coverage. Serving as an advocate, an attorney can help guide an injury victim through what can be a complicated process.”

PERSONAL INJURY CLAIM

Pending the results of the investigation, Angelica Petty may have the right to pursue a personal injury lawsuit. Stefano Formica, Of Counsel with Bond Legal, noted that the stress and worry following a serious injury could be overwhelming, disrupting all aspects of life, including family, work, finances, and overall quality of life.

“It is vital for victims to hire an attorney when filing a personal injury claim, which allows them to negotiate with an insurance company on behalf of a client,” Formica added.

“Insurance companies can be notoriously unconcerned with the mounting costs that an injured party may accrue. An attorney can help. We protect the victims of these tragedies daily, forcing the insurance companies to pay for their mistakes,” he added.
