Settlement - $1,000,000 in Product Liability Settlement
Case Summary: Attorney Michael Rix and his legal team successfully secured a full policy limits settlement on behalf of a wife and mother who suffered significant orthopedic injuries in a bicycle rental accident caused by the defendant's negligence.
Facts of the Case: Our client was a passenger in a Surrey four-wheel bicycle rented for a family outing. While traveling downhill on a designated path, the bicycle failed to stop, causing a high-speed collision. An in-depth investigation and discovery revealed that the rental company had failed to properly inspect and maintain the bicycle's braking system before renting it to the plaintiff and her family, creating a dangerous and preventable condition.
Treatment: As a result of the crash, our client sustained a serious knee injury that required open reduction surgery, along with spinal injuries that necessitated ongoing treatment and rehabilitation. These injuries significantly impacted her mobility, daily life, and ability to care for her family.
Legal Strategy: Our legal team meticulously documented the mechanical failure and the rental company's negligence in maintaining safety protocols. Through expert analysis and aggressive discovery, we built a compelling case that clearly demonstrated the defendant's liability and the life-changing impact of the injuries sustained by our client.
Pursuing Justice: The case was successfully resolved for the full policy limits. Our client received just compensation for her medical expenses, pain and suffering, and the long-term consequences of the accident. The result reflects our team's unwavering dedication to holding negligent parties accountable and securing justice for injured individuals and their families.
