Queen Rocquil Denis Alexander Hurt in Ohio Tractor-Trailer Crash

REAR-END CRASH INVESTIGATION

Rear-end crashes account for more than 29 percent of all accidents, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), with distracted driving contributing to many of these collisions.

Distractions that can result in rear-end crashes include texting, adjusting the radio, looking at other accidents and interacting with passengers. The National Safety Council estimates that 150,000 people are injured in large truck accidents each year.

Candice Bond, an experienced auto accident attorney, said that in cases like this, conducting an independent investigation as soon as possible is imperative to preserve evidence for an injured victim.

“In addition to the diligent work of law enforcement, an attorney can collect the proper evidence to help prove that a driver’s actions were reckless, which requires a variety of resources,” said Bond, Managing Partner of Bond Legal. “Your lawyer can re-interview important witnesses, analyze any surveillance video from the scene of the crash, and obtain phone and texting records of the liable party. Serving as an advocate, an attorney will help compassionately guide a victim during this difficult time, while vigorously protecting their legal rights and best interests.”

PERSONAL INJURY CLAIM

Queen Rocquil Denis Alexander and the passengers in her vehicle may have the right to pursue a personal injury lawsuit. Stefano Formica, Of Counsel with Bond Legal, noted that the stress and concern following a serious injury can be overwhelming and may affect family, work, finances and overall quality of life.

“Although no amount of money can make up for a devastating injury, it is important that a victim is made aware of their rights and what they are entitled to by law,” Formica added. “The injured victim in this collision may be entitled to an injury claim, and they may seek recovery for damages including medical expenses, future medical care, pain and suffering, and emotional trauma.”
