Preston Nascimento charged in reckless Plant City Injury crash on I-4

MOTORCYCLE CRASH INVESTIGATION

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

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

“Along with a police report, an attorney will thoroughly examine all contributing factors to the crash,” said Bond, Managing Partner at Bond Legal. “Legal counsel has the resources to engage expert witnesses, review driver histories, identify witnesses, and assess insurance coverage. Acting as an advocate, an attorney can help guide a victim’s family through this difficult time while safeguarding their legal rights and ensuring accountability.”

PERSONAL INJURY CLAIM

Pending the investigation, the victim may have the right to pursue a personal injury lawsuit. Stefano Formica, of counsel at Bond Legal, noted that the stress following an injury can be overwhelming and disruptive to daily life.

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

“Insurance providers often attempt to push quick settlements that are far below the true value of a case. An attorney will advocate strongly to ensure victims are treated fairly and receive appropriate compensation.”
