Police: Fleming, Jennings killed in ATV accident in South Holland

ATV ACCIDENT INVESTIGATION

According to the U.S. Consumer Products Safety Commission (CPSC), approximately 800 people die and 100,000 are hospitalized each year due to off-highway vehicle accidents. Of these, about 92% involve ATVs.

Candice Bond, Managing Partner at Bond Legal and national analyst for Accident Injury News, emphasized that in incidents like this, it is important to conduct an independent investigation as soon as possible to preserve evidence.

“In addition to reviewing the police report, an attorney will evaluate all contributing factors to the crash,” said Bond, an experienced ATV accident attorney.

“An attorney has the resources to hire expert witnesses, perform background checks, identify witnesses, and review insurance coverage. Acting as an advocate, legal counsel can guide an injured victim or their family through what can be a complex process.”

WRONGFUL DEATH CLAIM

Pending the investigation, the families of Bria Fleming and Terrell Jennings may have the right to pursue wrongful death claims. Families may seek compensation for loss of companionship, pain and suffering, and emotional distress following a tragic accident.

“The emotional impact of losing a loved one in an accident can be overwhelming,” said Stefano Formica, of counsel at Bond Legal.

“We understand the hardships families face, and protecting their rights is essential. A wrongful death attorney will stay updated on the investigation and help ensure that their legal rights and best interests are protected.”
