Bill Poynter suffered serious injuries on Oct. 3 when his motorcycle was struck by a hit-and-run rune driver in Sharonville.
A group of strangers stopped to help him until first responders arrived.
Sharonville police reported that none of the witnesses could identify the driver or the car involved in the hit-and-run. The department is urging anyone with information about the incident to contact investigators.
HIT-AND-RUN INVESTIGATION NEEDED
In most cases involving hit-and-runs, the at-fault drivers feel that they can avoid the consequences of their actions if they leave the scene. However, a suspect will be charged when apprehended.
Candice Bond, an experienced hit-and-run accident attorney, said in such cases is imperative to have an independent investigation conducted by a seasoned attorney promptly 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. “Road conditions, signage visibility, and road lighting are all possible contributing factors that must be fully considered. These procedures are necessary for helping someone who has lost a loved one at the hands of a hit-and-run driver receive the justice and monetary compensation that they deserve.”
PERSONAL INJURY CLAIM
Bill Poynter may have the right to pursue a personal injury claim, pending the investigation.
Bond added, “Injured victims involved in a collision often seek a personal injury claim to cover the cost of medical bills, future medical care, loss of income, emotional trauma, and pain and suffering.
"Insurance companies can be notoriously unconcerned with the mounting costs that an injured party may accrue. That's where an attorney can help. We protect the victims of these tragedies daily, forcing the insurance companies to pay for their mistakes,” she said.
