$500K Settlement: San Francisco Bicycle Accident Injures Software Engineer
A 27-year-old robotics software engineer in San Francisco has reached a $500,000 settlement after suffering severe injuries in a bicycle accident at the intersection of Bayshore Boulevard and Helena Street. The accident occurred when a negligent driver failed to yield, making an unsafe left turn into oncoming traffic and cutting off the bicyclist, who had the right of way in a marked bicycle lane.
The collision resulted in multiple facial fractures, broken teeth, and a traumatic brain injury for the software engineer, who was rushed to a nearby trauma center for emergency surgery and intensive care treatment for his head injuries. The significant medical procedures left him facing mounting medical bills and uncertainty about his future.
Realizing he needed legal help, the injured cyclist turned to a personal injury law firm for assistance. The firm faced a significant challenge in negotiating down a substantial lien from his health insurance provider, which had paid a large portion of his medical expenses. Additionally, they successfully reduced the lien by over $200,000, ensuring the engineer would keep a large portion of the settlement.
In addition to reducing the lien, the legal team meticulously documented the engineer’s lost wages and pain and suffering, maximizing the settlement value. Ultimately, they secured the full policy limits of $500,000, leaving the software engineer with over $215,000 after all expenses were paid.
