wrongful death

A woman was struck and killed in a severe pedestrian wreck that occurred on February 24, 2012, around 12:29p.m. on Arlington Avenue, west of Fairhaven Drive in the far western end of the city. According to Lt. Eric Charrette, a black pickup crossed the double-yellow line, causing the driver of another truck to veer off the road to avoid the collision. Unfortunately, the driver instead ran into a female pedestrian walking east along the south edge of the street.

Paramedics responding to this serious car wreck treated the victim at the scene and later transported her to Riverside Community Hospital, where she died of her injuries.

Police are now searching for the driver of the black truck, who didn’t even stop. The victim’s family members may file a wrongful death claim against the pickup driver to obtain compensation to cover funeral and burial costs, loss of love, care and companionship, and other accident-related damages.

Our law office sends sincere condolences to victim’s family members.

19-year-old Ronald Cole died in a serious multiple vehicle wreck that occurred on February 22, 2012, around 9 p.m. on Highway 74 (SR-74) east of Lake Elsinore. According to the authorities, Cole and his passengers were headed west in a 2004 Honda Civic on Highway 74 in the unincorporated Meadowbrook area when Cole, for unknown reasons, crossed into oncoming traffic.

The driver of another 2004 Civic tried to steer out of the way but the two cars collided head on. The other Civic, driven by 23-year-old Cody Testi, of Riverside, spun across the westbound lanes and came to rest on the shoulder. A Chrysler 300 that was behind Testi’s Civic and the Pathfinder struck debris from the initial crash.

Cole was immediately transported to Inland Valley Regional Medical Center, where he later died from his fatal injuries.

Both the passengers, 19-year-old Sydni Adame and 19-year-old Josh Webb, suffered major injuries and were immediately transported to a nearby hospital for treatment. The Chrysler driver, 58-year-old Zina Harris sustained minor bruises and scratches and was treated at local hospital.

From the present facts, it is unclear as to how this traffic collision occurred. Was there a loss of control? Was one of the drivers distracted or speeding?

At this time, the victim’s family members should immediately seek counsel from an experienced Riverside County car accident lawyer who would educate them about their legal rights. If Cole was negligently driving or even under the influence, then he may be legally required to compensate the victim’s family funeral and burial costs, loss of anticipated earnings, loss of love, care and companionship, and other related damages.

Our law office sends sincere condolences to the victim’s family members. We also hope and pray that the injuries suffered by the victims heal soon.

Suzanne Tuberville, wife of the Texas Tech University head coach Tommy Tuberville, is under investigation for a car wreck in Lubbock back in November 2011. Suzanne allegedly ran a red light at 57^th and Slide and crashed into a car carrying 73-year-old Nelda Purdy and her husband 87-year-old Ira Purdy. After spending the last 4 months in intensive care, Ira Purdy died this past Friday.

At the time of the accident, Nelda and Ira sustained critical injuries. According to the Purdy’s family attorney, the man never recovered from the significant head injury, broken leg, and broken ribs, which resulted in his death last Friday. Sources say that he was in good condition and very active before the accident. However, with such significant injuries, it is hard to fully recover at that age.

The investigation is still open due to the extent of the injuries that one of the passengers sustained and the recent death of Purdy. Suzanne Tuberville could ultimately face charges such as criminally negligent homicide or vehicular manslaughter, depending on the results of the Lubbock Police Department’s investigation and autopsy of Ira Purdy. This is a common charge for people who run red lights resulting in a death.

Wife Nelda Purdy has almost fully recovered from her injuries and is hoping to seek action for her husband’s death and her hospital stay. So far, the Purdy family has been disappointed with LPD’s investigation, especially since no citation was issued to the driver at the time of the accident. It was only 6 months after the wreck that a citation was issued.

Our personal injury law firm gives our deepest condolences to Nelda and the Purdy family. We hope that justice is served and that she recovers compensation to pay for her medical bills and her husband’s wrongful death.
