Kimberly Viator Killed in Gulfway Drive Hit-and-Run Crash, TX

FATAL ACCIDENT INVESTIGATION

Leaving the scene of an accident is a crime, and statistics show that more than one hit-and-run crash occurs every minute on U.S. roads.

Candice Bond, an experienced hit-and-run accident attorney, said it is important to have an independent investigation conducted promptly by a seasoned attorney to protect a victim’s rights.

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

Bond said investigators consider and examine factors including road conditions, visibility and lighting when reviewing a hit-and-run collision.

“These procedures are necessary for helping someone who has lost a loved one at the hands of a hit-and-run driver receive the justice and monetary compensation they deserve,” Bond said.

WRONGFUL DEATH CLAIM

While the investigation remains pending, the victim’s family could pursue a wrongful death claim. Relatives of wrongful death victims may seek damages for loss of companionship, pain and suffering, and emotional distress after a tragic or catastrophic accident such as this.

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

Formica said families understand how difficult these circumstances can be and that protecting their rights is essential. A wrongful death lawyer can monitor the official investigation and help ensure that the family’s legal rights and best interests remain protected.
