CRASH INVESTIGATION

Every year, millions of people are injured in traffic collisions throughout the United States, many suffering serious and long-term effects. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reported that approximately 2.44 million people were injured in motor vehicle crashes nationwide in 2023.

As investigators work to determine the cause and liability associated with this collision, Candice Bond, an experienced accident attorney and Managing Partner of Bond Legal, stressed the importance of conducting an independent investigation.

“In addition to the extensive efforts of law enforcement, an attorney can re-examine the scene, speak with witnesses again, review surveillance footage, and obtain phone and texting records from the responsible party,” said Bond, a national analyst for Accident Injury News.

“Time is critical in situations such as these, and families should make certain that all evidence is preserved and reviewed promptly,” Bond added.

PERSONAL INJURY CLAIM

Pending the outcome of the investigation, injured victims may have the right to pursue a personal injury claim. Stefano Formica, Of Counsel with Bond Legal, explained that the aftermath of a serious crash can place enormous emotional and financial strain on victims and their families, affecting work, finances, and everyday life.

“It is important for victims to retain an attorney when pursuing a personal injury claim because legal counsel can negotiate directly with insurance companies on behalf of the client,” Formica said.

“Insurance companies often attempt to resolve claims quickly for far less than their actual value. An attorney will fight to ensure that victims are treated fairly and receive the compensation they deserve,” he added.
