Re: bicycle accident

I'm a cyclist myself (commute every day). I think you may well have a case. Your general damages--pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, disability--will depend in part on the medical expenses you incurred. Feel free to get in touch and I'd be happy to explain what's involved in bringing a claim.
