Connor Blais Killed Riding Home from Work in W Palm Beach Hit-Run

FATAL ACCIDENT INVESTIGATION

Fleeing the scene of a crash is a criminal offense, yet statistics show that a hit-and-run occurs on U.S. roads more than once every minute.

Candice Bond, an experienced hit-and-run accident attorney, said that in cases like this, launching a prompt, independent investigation led by a skilled attorney is critical to protecting a victim’s rights.

“Having the right resources on hand is essential to properly investigate a hit-and-run case and establish negligence,” said Bond, a Managing Partner of Bond Legal and national analyst for Accident Injury News.

“Factors like road conditions, visibility, and lighting are all closely examined and considered,” Bond added.

These steps play a critical role in helping a family who has lost a loved one to a hit-and-run driver pursue the justice and financial compensation they deserve.

WRONGFUL DEATH CLAIM

Depending on the outcome of the investigation, Connor Blais’s family may be able to pursue a wrongful death claim. Relatives of wrongful death victims can seek damages for loss of companionship, pain and suffering, and emotional distress following a tragic or catastrophic accident like this one.

“Losing a loved one in an accident brings a level of stress and grief that can feel overwhelming,” said Stefano Formica, Of Counsel at Bond Legal.

“We understand firsthand what families are up against, and protecting their rights is essential. A wrongful death lawyer stays closely engaged with the official investigation and works to make sure a family’s legal rights and best interests are fully protected.”
