A Great Defense is No Accident

Recently, Rissman attorneys Derek Bush and Skylar Stewart obtained a defense verdict for our client in a motor vehicle vs. bicycle accident.

In these situations, it’s not always clear what happened and who is at fault. That’s why having a strong defense is essential if you find yourself in our client’s position.

The plaintiff claimed injuries to his neck, lower back, shoulders, knees, and wrists. In addition to claims for past and future surgeries, the plaintiff brought a claim for lost wages and earning capacity. Having boarded past medical expenses of approximately $150,000 and claiming future medical expenses in excess of $300,000, the plaintiff made a “final demand” of $375,000 a week before trial.

Fortunately for our client, Rissman attorneys bring years of experience to the table in cases like these, with strategies built to ensure a solid defense and the results clients need. In this case, the jury deliberated for just over an hour and returned a defense verdict.
