Kelcey Koenig hurt in Harley crash in Painesville Twp on Ohio 2: OSHP

MOTORCYCLE CRASH INVESTIGATION

This accident highlights the risks motorcyclists face on roadways each day. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 83,000 motorcyclists were injured in crashes in 2021, marking an increase of about 5 percent from the previous year.

Candice Bond, an experienced motorcycle accident attorney, said that in cases like this, it is crucial to preserve evidence through an independent investigation.

“Along with reviewing the police report, an attorney will examine all possible contributing factors,” said Bond, Managing Partner at Bond Legal. “Legal counsel can utilize resources to engage expert witnesses, perform background checks, identify witnesses, and evaluate insurance coverage. Acting as an advocate, an attorney helps guide victims and their families through a difficult time while working to protect their rights and ensure accountability.”

PERSONAL INJURY CLAIM

Pending the outcome of the investigation, Kelcey Koenig may have the right to pursue a personal injury claim. Stefano Formica, of counsel at Bond Legal, explained that the impact of a serious injury can be overwhelming and affect many aspects of a person’s life, including work, finances, and overall well-being.

“It is important for victims to retain an attorney when pursuing a personal injury claim, as this allows proper negotiation with insurance companies,” Formica said.

“Insurance providers often attempt to resolve claims quickly for less than their true value. An attorney, however, will strongly advocate on behalf of their client to ensure fair treatment and appropriate compensation.”
