Dominique Hammond dies in Los Angeles motorcycle accident

FATAL MOTORCYCLE CRASH INVESTIGATION

According to Candice Bond, an experienced accident attorney, many motorcycle accidents are preventable and are frequently caused by negligent drivers of passenger vehicles.

Per the National Safety Council (NSC), approximately 6,000 motorcyclists are killed each year in the United States. About 35 percent of vehicle-versus-motorcycle crashes involve a driver who failed to yield the right of way to a motorcyclist.

Bond explained that in cases such as this, it is crucial to have an independent investigation carried out by an experienced attorney to protect the rights of a victim’s family.

“Motorcyclists are among the most vulnerable on the road, and a variety of factors can contribute to fatal crashes,” said Bond, Managing Partner with Bond Legal and a national analyst with Accident Injury News. “Blind spots, inexperienced drivers, and distracted motorists are often responsible for these collisions. An attorney has the resources to hire expert witnesses, review driver histories, locate witnesses, and examine insurance coverage, while guiding the victim’s family through the legal process and protecting their best interests.”

WRONGFUL DEATH CLAIM

Pending the investigation, the family members of Dominique Hammond may be entitled to pursue a wrongful death claim. Family members of wrongful death victims may seek compensation for loss of companionship, pain and suffering, and emotional distress following a catastrophic accident.

“We understand that losing a loved one is not only emotionally devastating but can also create financial hardship,” said Stefano Formica, of counsel with Bond Legal.

“If you have lost a loved one due to another party’s negligence, it is important to contact a wrongful death attorney to receive the guidance needed to pursue the justice you deserve.”
