San Diego, CA - Earlier this month, the Los Angeles City Council voted unanimously to settle a lawsuit brought up by an injured cyclist who was then awarded $6.5 million. The injured party crashed his bike in Sherman Oaks two years ago and suffered several broken bones after striking a pothole. It was the second such settlement this year, following an earlier settlement which the council awarded $4.5 million to the family of a man who was killed after falling from his bike when he hit uneven pavement.
Brett Geruntino of Acclaim Law Group explains that such settlements in nearby Los Angeles show the importance of contacting a personal injury attorney in San Diego if one is injured in a biking accident on city maintained property. He recently discussed his views on the Sherman Oaks settlement in a blog post at acclaimlaw.com.
In his post, Mr. Geruntino further explains that many people are unaware of their ability to hold the city accountable for injuries that are suffered due to improperly maintained sidewalks or streets. He claims the purpose of his blog is to educate his clients and readers as to what their potential settlements could be.
