Bradley Goggins tragically killed in Chilton County head-on accident

CRASH INVESTIGATION

According to the Alabama Department of Transportation, the state consistently experiences traffic fatality rates nearly double the national average.

While the United States recorded 36,560 deaths in 2018—approximately 11 fatalities per 100,000 people and 1 death per 100 million miles traveled—Alabama maintains significantly higher rates with 19-21 fatalities per 100,000 people and 1.36 deaths per 100 million miles traveled.

“Road conditions, visibility, and lighting are all possible contributing factors that are considered and must thoroughly be examined,” said Candice Bond, a Managing Partner with Bond Legal.

“An accident reconstruction team is sometimes needed to help piece together what happened. All of these resources are necessary for helping clients receive monetary compensation for damages or a loss following a collision,” said Bond.

WRONGFUL DEATH CLAIM

Pending the investigation, the family of Bradley Goggins may be entitled to a wrongful death claim. Family members of wrongful death victims may seek damages for loss of companionship, pain and suffering, and emotional distress following a tragic or catastrophic accident such as this.

“The stress and sorrow can be extremely overwhelming after losing a loved one in an accident,” said Stefano Formica, of counsel at Bond Legal.

“We understand just what families are forced to go through, and having their rights protected is vital. A wrongful death lawyer will stay updated on the official investigation and help ensure that their legal rights and best interests are protected.”
