Devin Willock’s father remains with the family in Gainesville, Georgia following the fatal wreck early Sunday morning that claimed his son’s life.

The father added that he knows nothing of lawyers or press conferences in a report from the AJC following an announcement about a Thursday press conference to discuss legal action in the case.

Will there be legal action?

“No, Georgia is working with us … they are compensating us 100%,” he said.

It’s unclear what details will come from an expected press conference with the personal injury firm Go Big Injury Lawyers about the incident.

Willock and Georgia recruiting staffer Chandler LeCroy were killed in a single-car crash on Barnett Shoals Road at about 2:45 a.m. on Sunday. The crash report released by the Athens-Clarke County police cited cited excessive speed as a contributing factor.
