Connie Cosby critically injured in Monroe County hit-and-run accident

HIT-AND-RUN INVESTIGATION NEEDED

While specific pedestrian hit-and-run statistics aren’t reported, data shows Michigan’s overall pedestrian safety crisis is significant. In Michigan, more than 100 pedestrians die each year. Most of these deaths occur between 6 p.m. and midnight, with many fatalities occurring when pedestrians cross the roadway somewhere other than at an intersection or when a driver fails to yield.

Candice Bond, a seasoned attorney specializing in hit-and-run accidents, emphasized the necessity of conducting an independent investigation swiftly to safeguard a victim’s rights.

“Having the proper resources is extremely important to investigate a hit-and-run accident case and prove negligence,” said Bond, Managing Partner of Bond Legal. “Road conditions, signage visibility, and road lighting are all possible contributing factors that must be fully considered. These procedures are necessary for helping someone who has lost a loved one at the hands of a hit-and-run driver receive the justice and monetary compensation that they deserve.”

 

PERSONAL INJURY CLAIM

Connie Cosby may have the right to pursue a personal injury claim, pending the investigation.

Bond added, “Injured victims involved in a collision often seek a personal injury claim to cover the cost of medical bills, future medical care, loss of income, emotional trauma, and pain and suffering.

“Insurance companies can be notoriously unconcerned with the mounting costs that an injured party may accrue. That’s where an attorney can help. We protect the victims of these tragedies daily, forcing the insurance companies to pay for their mistakes,” she said.
