Jose Garcia Arrested After Dallas DUI Crash Hurts Kids

CRASH INVESTIGATION NEEDED

Drunk driving continues to claim lives on U.S. roads, despite widespread awareness campaigns, tough laws, and devastating statistics. The tragedy is that these deaths are entirely preventable. One person was killed in a drunk-driving crash every 42 minutes in the United States in 2023, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Driving under the influence remains a persistent threat on the nation’s roads, often resulting in life-altering injuries and loss. An attorney can assist victims and families by conducting an independent investigation and working to secure justice and fair compensation.

“In addition to the diligent work of law enforcement, an attorney can re-interview important witnesses, analyze any surveillance video from the scene of the crash, and obtain phone and texting records of the liable party,” said Candice Bond, managing partner at Bond Legal.

“Time is of the essence in cases such as this, and the victims’ family must ensure that evidence is reviewed efficiently,” added Bond, an experienced DUI accident attorney, in comments to Accident Injury News.

PERSONAL INJURY CLAIM

Pending the results of the investigation, the victims injured in the crash may have the right to pursue a personal injury lawsuit. Stefano Formica, of counsel at Bond Legal, noted that the stress and worry following a serious injury can be overwhelming, disrupting all aspects of life, including family, work, finances, and overall quality of life.

“It is vital for victims to hire an attorney when filing a personal injury claim, which allows them to negotiate with an insurance company on behalf of a client,” Formica added.

“Insurance companies often try to pressure victims to settle for a quick payout for far less than the case is worth. However, an attorney will vigorously advocate for their client to ensure that they are treated with respect and compensated fairly.”
