Injured Motorcyclist Receives $265,000.00

On September 24, 2003, a motorcycle rider from Cedarburg was operating his 2000 Harley-Davidson motorcycle in Mequon, Wisconsin. At that time, a 1996 Ford Explorer failed to yield the right-of-way at a stop sign, striking the motorcycle. The motorcycle operator had no time to take any evasive action. As a result of the accident, our client received a serious leg fracture, requiring surgery and skin grafting. It was clear to Attorney Jason F. Abraham that the value of this case exceeded the at-fault driver’s insurance policy, totaling $250,000.00. Although Attorney Abraham immediately demanded the payment of the policy limits, the insurance company failed to pay them.

As a result of the insurance company’s inaction, Attorney Abraham immediately filed a lawsuit against them. Moreover, as a result of this loss, the motorcyclist not only received the $250,000.00 policy limits, but also received $15,000.00, personally, from the at-fault driver. Thankfully, the motorcyclist is back to work and continuing in his recovery efforts.

Awarded: $265,000.00
