“To sue someone you only need two things; a reason and a lawyer, and neither have to be good.”

I was riding a bicycle and a car made a left turn onto the street I was crossing and accelerated right at me. I managed to speed up so that he only hit my rear wheel and not my body. But I fell and shattered my elbow. I ended up needing a long surgery, resulting in two plates and nine screws holding it all together.

I went to a lawyer, who was very straightforward with me. This would not be their highest priority case, but they thought they could recover money for me. I got assigned to one of the younger lawyers, who was excellent at communicating with me every step of the way. I ended up quite happy with the settlement.
