NYPD: Christopher Cabrera Dies, Struck by Truck in Flushing Scooter Crash

CRASH INVESTIGATION

“Determining the precise cause of any accident is absolutely essential. An attorney has access to the resources needed to review applicable insurance coverage, retain expert witnesses, conduct background checks, and track down witnesses. We carefully walk the victim’s family through every step of the process,” said Candice Bond, Managing Partner with Bond Legal.

She emphasized that, in cases like this one, conducting an independent investigation is essential to preserving critical evidence.

“Beyond simply reviewing a police report, an attorney will thoroughly examine the factors that may have contributed to the crash,” Bond explained. “A lawyer has the resources necessary to bring in expert witnesses, run background checks on drivers, locate crash witnesses, and assess applicable insurance coverage. Acting as an advocate, an attorney can help an injury victim navigate what is often a complicated and difficult process.”

WRONGFUL DEATH CLAIM

Pending the outcome of the investigation, the victim’s family may have grounds to pursue a wrongful death claim. Family members of wrongful death victims may be entitled to seek damages for loss of companionship, pain and suffering, and emotional distress following a tragic accident such as this one.

“The grief and stress that follow the loss of a loved one in an accident can feel completely overwhelming,” said Stefano Formica, Of Counsel at Bond Legal.

“We understand exactly what families go through during this time, and safeguarding their rights is essential. A wrongful death attorney stays closely informed on the official investigation to help ensure the family’s legal rights and best interests are fully protected,” Formica added.
