Bicycle vs. Auto: 

Our client was riding his bike to work when he was struck by a truck.  As a result of the accident, our client sustained a serious shoulder injury which required surgery.  While our client did lose some of his range of motion in his non-dominant arm, he was able to go back to work and return to most of his daily activities.  At mediation, the Defendant’s insurance refused to offer any money over $500,000.00 as they felt this compensation was more than fair for our client.  Farar & Lewis, LLP did not agree and moved forward in preparation for trial.  Only a couple months later, Farar & Lewis, LLP was able to get our client $1.2 million in compensation.
