Otilia Corona Fatally Struck in Houston Hit-and-Run, HPD Says

FATAL ACCIDENT INVESTIGATION

Leaving the scene of an accident is a crime, and statistics indicate 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 an independent investigation should be conducted promptly in these cases to protect the rights of a victim.

“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 may examine road conditions, visibility, and lighting as possible contributing factors in a hit-and-run crash.

These investigative procedures can be important for families who have lost a loved one in a hit-and-run accident and are seeking justice and monetary compensation.

WRONGFUL DEATH CLAIM

Pending the investigation, the family of a victim could pursue a wrongful death claim. Family members of wrongful death victims may seek damages for loss of companionship, pain and suffering, and emotional distress following a tragic or catastrophic accident such as this.

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

“We understand just what families must go through, and having their rights protected is vital. A wrongful death lawyer will stay updated on the official investigation and help ensure that their legal rights and best interests are protected.”
