Fwd: bicycle-car incident

[sue wolling]

I think this issue has come up before, but I don't have the names.  Can anybody recommend a lawyer to represent a bicyclist injured in a crash with a car?

Hello,

A couple folks recommended I contact GEARS to see if there may be any advice/leads on legal representation for an incident that occurred. I was biking down 18th street with a friend, going through a green light at the intersection of High Street, when a car made a left turn from 18th to High when I was already in the intersection. I knew enough to attempt to turn in the direction of the car, but her car still struck me and I slammed into her car, and then the street. Long story short--I have injuries, and made a claim to her insurance. She told her agent that I "ran into her car" and had no injuries. I want legal representation to back me but don't know who to turn to. Does this organization know any attorneys who specialize in bicycle law/accidents? Thank you.

Sincerely,

Michelle Brown
