Laurie Greene tragically killed in Toledo 2-vehicle accident

CRASH INVESTIGATION

According to the Federal Highway Administration, approximately 40 percent of car collisions take place at road intersections and the cause is usually related to running a stop sign or a stoplight. Some of the reasons why drivers blow through stop signs are impatience, reckless driving, and distracted driving. Candice Bond, an experienced auto accident attorney, said an independent probe should be conducted to protect a victim’s rights.

“It is imperative to come to a determination of the exact cause of these types of accidents. An attorney has the resources to review applicable insurance coverage, hire expert witnesses, run background checks, and locate witnesses. We carefully guide the family of the victim through the process,” said Candice Bond, a managing partner with Bond Legal.

She noted that in such cases such as it is important to have an independent investigation conducted sooner than later to preserve any evidence.

“In addition to a police report, an attorney will carefully review what may have contributed to the crash,” said Bond. “A lawyer has the resources to hire expert witnesses, conduct driver background checks, locate witnesses to the crash, and review applicable insurance coverage. Serving as an advocate, an attorney can help guide an injury victim through what can be a complicated process.”

WRONGFUL DEATH CLAIM

Pending the results of any investigations, the family of Laurie Greene may pursue a wrongful death claim. Survivors of wrongful death victims may seek damages for loss of companionship, pain and suffering, and emotional distress following a catastrophic accident such as this.

Bond noted, “Grieving families of victims are sometimes overwhelmed by the legal processes that are in place to protect their rights. An attorney can be a valuable and compassionate resource to help guide a family during this difficult time, and ensure that those left behind receive the restitution they are entitled to.”
