SCHP: Clarice McNeil Ejected, Killed in Aiken County I-20 Collision

CRASH INVESTIGATION

“It is imperative to come to a determination of the exact cause of any accident. 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 Candice Bond, a managing partner with Bond Legal.

Bond noted that, in cases such as this, conducting an independent investigation is essential to preserving evidence.

“In addition to a police report, an attorney will carefully review what may have contributed to the crash,” said Bond. “A lawyer has the resources to hire expert witnesses, conduct drivers’ 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.”

WRONGFUL DEATH CLAIM

Pending the outcome of the investigation, the victim’s family may have grounds to pursue a wrongful death claim. Relatives of wrongful death victims may be able to recover damages for loss of companionship, pain and suffering, and emotional distress stemming from a tragic or catastrophic accident such as this one.

“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 protecting their rights 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,” Formica added.
