Our client was seriously injured while riding a bicycle through a crosswalk near 31st Street and Benton Boulevard in Kansas City. A driver struck the client while they were crossing the street, causing a broken tibia that required medical treatment and a lengthy recovery.
The insurance company argued that the client may not have had the right of way at the time of the crash. However, our investigation revealed important facts about the driver's conduct. We showed that the driver was speeding and operating a vehicle on a suspended license when the collision occurred. These factors demonstrated that the driver's negligence played a significant role in causing the crash.
By presenting this evidence and building a strong case, our Kansas City car accident lawyer was able to secure the full available insurance coverage for our client. The case ultimately resulted in a $100,000 car and bicycle accident settlement in Kansas City, which was the policy limits available. This settlement provided compensation to help our client move forward after a painful and disruptive injury.
