I was involved in a bicycle accident with a large truck that left me with a complete fracture of my fibula. The injury required the insertion of a plate and screws, and many months of rehab. A cycling friend recommended Amanda to me, and since she is a cyclist herself, it meant I would have someone representing me that had experience on the bike as well. Amanda was very well versed in the rights of cyclists, and made sure I received a fair settlement for my injury. She handled every aspect of my case and kept me updated so I could focus on my recovery.
