Michael Lewis hurt in Hillsborough hit-and-run accident

HIT-AND-RUN INVESTIGATION NEEDED

Leaving the scene of an accident is a criminal offense, yet statistics show that approximately 11 percent of all crashes involve a hit-and-run driver.

In many hit-and-run cases, at-fault drivers attempt to avoid responsibility by fleeing the scene. However, once identified, they can face serious criminal charges.

Candice Bond, an experienced hit-and-run accident attorney, emphasized that it is crucial to conduct an independent investigation promptly to protect a victim’s rights.

“Having the proper resources is essential in investigating a hit-and-run case and establishing negligence,” said Bond, Managing Partner of Bond Legal. “Factors such as road conditions, visibility of signage, and lighting must all be thoroughly evaluated. These steps are necessary to help victims obtain justice and the financial compensation they deserve.”

PERSONAL INJURY CLAIM

Pending the outcome of the investigation, Michael Lewis may have the right to pursue a personal injury lawsuit. Stefano Formica, of counsel at Bond Legal, noted that the stress following a serious injury can be overwhelming and affect all aspects of life, including family, work, finances, and overall well-being.

“It is important for victims to retain an attorney when filing a personal injury claim so they can effectively negotiate with insurance companies,” Formica said.

“Insurance companies often attempt to pressure victims into accepting quick settlements that are far below the true value of the case. An attorney will strongly advocate on behalf of their client to ensure fair treatment and proper compensation.”
