The deadly crash took place at about 3:46 a.m. Monday, April 6, in the 3300 block of East Panama Lane.
Authorities said a Toyota, driven by Gonzalez, was heading westbound on East Panama Lane when, for unknown reasons, it was rear-ended by an Audi, driven by Fashawn Pearson, 25, of Bakersfield, who was traveling in the same direction.
The Toyota overturned upon the impact.
Gonzalez was pronounced dead at the scene.
Authorities determined that Pearson was driving under the influence. He was arrested for DUI, resulting in death and gross vehicular manslaughter.
The accident remains under investigation. The Bakersfield Police Department urged anyone who witnessed the crash to call them at (661) 327-7111.
Managing Partner and CEO Alpine Law Group, Mr. Arin Khodaverdian believes that car accident claims are rarely straightforward regardless of the circumstances involved. “Liable insurance companies will often do everything possible to limit their out-of-pocket expenses by either devaluing or outright denying your claim and it is crucial, therefore, to have an experienced attorney on your side,” He said.
Mr. Khodaverdian has worked for many years as a wrongful death and personal injury attorney. He and his team of attorneys has helped thousands of injury victims and their families recover over $100 million in compensation. “In one case, we recovered a 7-figure settlement within 11 business days of being hired by the family of a victim who was killed by a negligent driver.”
Swift action by an experienced attorney helps preserve evidence, interview witnesses, and begin to pursue those responsible for the incident.
