David Borges died in North Western Ave motorcycle crash Wenatchee

CRASH INVESTIGATION NEEDED

In 2023, motorcycle fatalities in the U.S. reached 6,335, accounting for 15% of all traffic deaths and marking the deadliest year since 1975, according to the NHTSA. With a fatality rate of 31.39 per 100 million miles traveled, improved driver awareness and road safety measures remain essential.

“Motorcyclists are among the most vulnerable road users,” said Candice Bond, Managing Partner of Bond Legal. “Even relatively minor crashes can result in severe or fatal injuries, which makes vigilance critical for all drivers.”

Bond, an experienced motorcycle accident attorney, emphasized that in cases like this, an independent investigation by a qualified attorney is important to protect the rights of the victim’s family.

“Blind spots, inexperienced drivers, and distracted motorists are common factors in these types of collisions. An attorney can help guide families through this difficult time while ensuring that responsible parties are held accountable if traffic laws were violated,” added Bond, a national legal analyst for Accident Injury News.

WRONGFUL DEATH CLAIM

Pending the outcome of the investigation, the family of David Borges may have the right to pursue a wrongful death claim. Loved ones of wrongful death victims may seek compensation for loss of companionship, pain and suffering, and emotional distress following a tragic accident.

“The emotional toll after losing a loved one in an accident can be overwhelming,” said Stefano Formica, Of Counsel with Bond Legal.

“We understand the challenges families face, and protecting their legal rights is essential. A wrongful death attorney will stay informed on the investigation and help ensure that the family’s best interests are represented.”
