A man was riding his bicycle down Highway 17 Business in Murrells Inlet, South Carolina when a car failed to yield the right of way and turned left in front of him.
The man was thrown over the hood of the car and landed on his shoulder, tearing his rotator cuff. This injury required surgery to repair but after two years of medical treatment, he had not fully recovered.
Derrick Law Firm Injury Lawyers took this man's accident case in order to get him the medical treatment he needed and get his medical bills paid.
After evaluating his medical treatment and medical records, along with the accident report, Derrick Law Firm Injury Lawyers settled the liability portion of his claim for the full liability policy limits. Because of the continued issues with his shoulder, need for future medical care, and the significant amount of medical bills, Derrick Law Firm Injury Lawyers filed a claim under our client's Underinsured Motorist policy to cover his remaining bills and future treatment.
