Kentucky Car And Truck Wreck Attorney: Owingsville, Kentucky Man Killed
The Kentucky State Police are investigating the death of Clinton Purvis, a 29 year-old man from Owingsville, Kentucky. Mr. Purvis died on August 25 when his 1998 Chevy S-10 pickup truck struck a guard rail causing him to lose control and crash. Police say he was not wearing his seatbelt and was ejected through the passenger window. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Our sympathies and condolences go out to the friends and family of the deceased as they deal with grieving process for this unparalleled loss.
A crash like this raises many questions, such as whether there are causes other than driver error. It is imperative that a full investigation take place to determine if there were any factors at play causing this tragedy that are not readily apparent and to preserve evidence. For instance, my office has seen many accidents where it first was thought and reported that a seat belt was not in use, but later the facts indicate the seat belt was in use, but failed to work properly.
Although the police are conducting an investigation to determine the cause, and they typically good job, it is often important for someone involved in this type of accident, or a surviving family member or friend, to do their own investigation. Hiring a lawyer experienced in handling car wrecks can assure a victim of such a wreck, or the family, that their interests and rights are being protected.
A lawyer experienced in handling car and truck wrecks will know what to do to uncover any underlying causes that do not appear on the surface and may go unrecognized in other investigations.
