What does your attorney say? Documentation is "king" in law. You need to establish the tears were caused by this incident. Unfortunately you have an MRI that says no tears. Many things could have happened to your ankle(s) in the year before the tears were confirmed. You are asking an... Read more »

answered on Jul 29, 2022
Yes, if there was a dangerous condition on the apartment complex property, you can sue for your injuries caused by that condition. Contact a personal injury lawyer on Justia. Consultations are typically free.

After the accident, I called 911 and the ambulance came and took the cyclist to the hospital. The police asked me to go to the police station and performed a series of sobriety tests, I also had my blood drawn. The police still has my car now and I want to know what may happen next.

You probably should consult a criminal defense attorney who might be able to see what is going on. If they haven't charged you yet with anything they still could be investigating, etc.. If you haven't already you should also tell your insurance company right away.

no lawyer, in my opinion, can evaluate the facts like these, without a consultation.
if you can't find a lawyer, and I assume that is the case, you can always go into small claims court where you can sue for up to $10k without a lawyer.
