Each Client Has A Unique Story

Each client has a unique story. When a bicyclist or pedestrian is first hit, the natural tendency to brush off the crash and tell everyone that everything is fine. As the days turn to weeks and months, that is when a person injured on the road realizes that denial won't make the pain and medical bills disappear.

Their stories and your stories fuel attorney Catherine Fleming in her fight for injured bicyclists, pedestrians, and anyone traveling our roads. Our win rate for injured bicyclists and other "vulnerable road users": 100% success.
