Family Of Bicyclist Struck In Crosswalk Obtains Settlement of Over $300,000

In a big city like New York, the benefits of riding a bicycle to get around town are plentiful. Unfortunately, the risks are also abundant. On a clear evening, N.C.’s husband was riding his bicycle, lawfully following road signs and signals. During his ride he approached an intersection, where the traffic signal was green for his lane. Traffic seemed to be ebbing and flowing as usual, he had no reason to believe everything was about to change.

As N.C.’s husband crossed, he was blindsided by a tow truck which had attempted to make an illegal turn and plowed directly into this father of 5 young children. Although he was raced to the hospital, tragically, he succumbed to his injuries.

Devastated by their loss, N.C. knew that her husband deserved justice. It was then that she made the decision to speak with Hill & Moin to weigh her options. Working closely with them through such a difficult time, N.C. was thankful for Hill & Moin’s sincerity and kindness as they zealously worked to collect a settlement of the full insurance policy for her family’s deep loss.

She commended Hill & Moin’s staff for their straightforward and steady communication, from beginning to end. Turning to the future, N.C. plans to return to her home country where she will build a home for her family.
