Regardless of which island an accident takes place on, the investigative workup of the case usually will be done by local investigators hired by this office.

Once that is completed, there may be expert witness workup of the facts and circumstances of the case.

Recent Personal Injury and Car Accident News

A county in Washington state (King County) has just entered into a $3 million settlement for an inmate that was beaten by another inmate in a shared cell. The victim was Toby Meagher. His pleas to be moved to another cell only minutes before the attack occurred were disregarded. Jail officials already knew that his cellmate was dangerous, mentally unstable and violent. The assailant had just returned to jail from a mental hospital where he had attacked six individuals. The injuries included TBI, broken bones, damaged nerves and fractured teeth. Here in Hawaii, as in Washington state, inmates have the right to be safe and secure while incarcerated. See, King County to pay $3M.
