St louis Bicycle Lawyer Takes On a Missouri Drunk Driver After His Truck Strikes Triathelete In Training - Missouri Personal Injury including Broken Back, Knee Injuries, Traumatic Brain and Head Injury

By Benjamin J. Sansone, Esq.

Missouri Personal Injury Attorney, Benjamin Sansone, has been recently retained as a St Louis bicycle lawyer to represent a St. Charles County cyclist who was struck by a drunk driver and thrown from his bike, causing severe personal injuries.

Both the drunk driver and the bicyclist were traveling west on the south service road. The drunk and negligent driver of the truck rear-ended the back tire of the bicycle, sending the cyclist over his handlebars and landing 35 feet from the initial impact site. The at fault and negligent driver stated that he never saw the Missouri cyclist prior to colliding with him. The injured cyclist was taken to St. Joseph?s Hospital in crititcal condition and the drunk driver, who was suspected of intoxication, was taken to jail.

The personal injury victim and cyclist suffers from multiple fractures in his back, a head injury ? which caused him to lose consciousness for several hours, debilitating knee injuries, abrasions down his arms and legs, along with many other injuries that he has not been officially diagnosed with yet .

Once the injured cyclist has reached his maximum medical improvement, Sansone Law will be filing a Missouri personal injury negligence claim against the driver if his insurance company is not willing to settle the personal injury claim for the full value of his severe personal injuries, pain and suffering, and disabilities that will affect the injured biker the rest of his life. Additionally, after filing the negligence claim, personal injury lawyer Ben Sansone will pursue punitive damages against the Missouri drunk driver.

Personal Injury lawyer, Benjamin Sansone, is an avid cyclist and which, combined with his legal experience and personal injury lawsuit results, makes him an excellent Missouri bicycle attorney.
