Javari Stripling Dies in Buckner Boulevard Hit-and-Run, TX

CRASH INVESTIGATION NEEDED

A motorist involved in a hit-and-run crash is required to remain at the scene and notify law enforcement officials. Failing to do so can result in criminal charges and other legal consequences. According to NHTSA, 2,872 people died in hit-and-run crashes in 2023, down from 2,972 the previous year. Officials say the decline, although small, is significant and indicates that the total number of hit-and-run crashes likely fell to around 2,800.

“Having the proper resources is extremely important to investigate a hit-and-run case and prove negligence,” said Candice Bond, an experienced hit-and-run accident attorney and a Managing Partner of Bond Legal.

“Road conditions, signage visibility, and road lighting are among the possible contributing factors that must be carefully considered and thoroughly examined. These procedures are essential in helping families who have lost a loved one obtain the justice they deserve.”

Bond, the national analyst for Accident Injury News, added that “drivers must use great care behind the wheel, as even a momentary lapse in attention can lead to deadly consequences.”

WRONGFUL DEATH CLAIM

Pending the investigation, the family of Javari Stripling may be entitled to pursue a wrongful death claim. Relatives of wrongful death victims may seek damages for loss of companionship, pain and suffering, and emotional distress following a catastrophic accident such as this incident.

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

“We understand what families are forced to go through, and protecting their rights is vital. A wrongful death lawyer can stay informed about the official investigation and help ensure that their legal rights and best interests are protected.”
