Covington motorcycle crash injures James Morgan, April Clark, MHP

CRASH INVESTIGATION

Each year, millions of people are injured in traffic collisions across the United States, many suffering life-changing consequences. In 2023 alone, approximately 2.44 million individuals were injured in motor vehicle crashes, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

As investigators work to determine the cause and liability in this case, Candice Bond, an experienced accident attorney and Managing Partner of Bond Legal, emphasized the importance of an independent investigation conducted by a skilled attorney.

“In addition to the thorough efforts of law enforcement, an attorney can re-examine key witnesses, review any available surveillance footage from the crash site, and obtain phone and texting records of the responsible party,” said Bond, a national analyst for Accident Injury News.

“Time is critical in cases like this, and it is important that the victim’s family ensures that evidence is reviewed promptly and thoroughly,” Bond added.

PERSONAL INJURY CLAIM

Pending the outcome of the investigation, an injured victim may have the right to pursue a personal injury lawsuit. Stefano Formica, Of Counsel with Bond Legal, noted that the stress and uncertainty following a serious injury can be overwhelming, affecting all aspects of life, including family, employment, finances, and overall well-being.

“It is important for victims to retain an attorney when filing a personal injury claim so they can negotiate effectively with insurance companies,” Formica said.

“Insurance companies often attempt to settle claims quickly for less than their full value. An attorney will advocate strongly on behalf of their client to ensure they are treated fairly and receive appropriate compensation,” he added.
