Lance’s sister referred him to Adam Handler (thank you sister)! Our team helped Lance receive proper medical care to treat his injured right knee. Prior to the end of his medical treatment, The Case Handler team began transmitting each and every medical record and medical bill to the insurance company. After records began piling up, the insurance company agreed to provide our client with the maximum policy limit, which is the highest amount possible to compensate Lance for his injuries!
As an experienced motorcycle accident lawyer, Adam Handler also ensured that all of Lance’s medical bills were paid by the at-fault driver’s insurance company despite New York’s law that an injured victim in motorcycle accidents would be personally responsible for their own bills.
