Breisha McGowan tragically killed in Houston freeway accident

CRASH INVESTIGATION

Houston set a deadly record in 2024 with 301 traffic fatalities, marking the highest number in the city’s history and exceeding the previous record by nearly 30 deaths. The city experiences about 185 car crashes daily, making it Texas’s most dangerous for drivers. Houston’s traffic death rate significantly exceeds the national average, with speeding and distracted driving serving as primary contributing factors.

“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 Breisha McGowan 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.”
