Our client was riding his bicycle to work in Fairfax, Virginia when the driver of a car traveling in the opposite direction failed to yield the right of way and struck him. The other driver claimed she did not see our client, despite his having working lights on his bicycle. He was transported by ambulance to the emergency room and underwent a significant course of medical treatment for a closed, nondisplaced comminuted tibia fracture. After failing to receive a fair settlement offer, we filed suit in the Circuit Court for Fairfax County. After litigating the case, it settled prior to trial.
