Recently, Painter and Associates helped a client recover a significant six-figure award for damages suffered in a bicycle accident.  

Our client was hit on his bicycle while at The Ohio State University campus.  The client suffered extreme breaks to his wrist requiring the insertion of 27 pins and two surgeries to repair the damage. 

Painter & Associates was able to recover the full amount of the damages under the at-fault party's insurance policy.  

If you or a loved one has been involved in a bicycle or motor accident, please contact Painter & Associates for your personal injury needs.

 Recently, Painter & Associates was able to recover a substantial damage award for a client injured in a bicycle accident.  

The client suffered an injury to his elbow requiring surgery.  Initially, the at-fault party's insurance refused to offer an amount that would have covered the client's medical liens let alone any physical and mental damages the client suffered. 

After significant negotiations, Painter & Associates was able to recover damages from the insurance company in the high five figure amount while at the same time negotiating down significantly the client's medical liens allowing the client to have substantially more money in his pocket than he would have received otherwise.

Recently, Painter & Associates represented a client in a car accident case where the client was t-boned on the driver's side.  The impact of the crash caused our client's artificial knee to loosen to such an extent that she required surgery to repair and replace part of her artificial knee. This, of course, brought additional pain and required physical therapy and recovery time.  Painter & Associates was able to recover a settlement in the amount of $180,000 that covered the costs of the procedure and provided for our client's pain and suffering.

Personal Injury Suit Pays Medical Bills and Lost Wages

Your injuries could affect your ability to do your job as well as cost you thousands in medical bills.  You have the right to seek compensation for the serious losses you have experienced through a personal injury case that holds at-fault parties responsible for their actions.

Painter and Westfall represented a garbage truck driver who was injured while doing his job. The plaintiff, M. Kent*, (names changed to protect identities) lawfully stopped the garbage truck he was working on, exited the vehicle and attempted to cross the road.  At the same time, defendant, G. Smith*, negligently and recklessly crossed a double-yellow line while attempting to pass Kent’s stopped truck.  Kent was unable to avoid being struck and was injured as a result. Smith was cited by the police for his driving misconduct. 

Kent suffered from his numerous injuries as well as lost income from work and high medical bills.  Painter and Westfall was able to file a personal injury suit and Kent was ultimately awarded a six-figure settlement from the accident to cover his medical bills, pain and suffering.
