It was only a matter of time before my teenage brother-in-law, Tommy, got into his first accident. For the most part, he's a good kid. He's a typical teen who enjoys rock and roll, pranks, texting, and driving too fast. Like most kids his age, he thinks he's the center of the world and he thinks indestructible.
Barreling down Sunset Boulevard, he got a text message on his phone. Being young and dumb, he decided to check his phone. He claims he just glanced at his phone, then looked up to see a motorcycle about to cut into his lane. He says he tried to honk, but the they collided before he could do anything.
Instead of an easy spill, the rider was tossed approximately 50 yards down the sidewalk. Tommy managed to control himself long enough to call for an ambulance. He rushed to the rider and tried to keep him company until the paramedics arrived. Even as he was helping the rider stay conscious, he knew there was a monster of a legal battle coming his way.
Tommy was so frantic after the accident, my father-in-law decided to get involved. Tommy was having trouble sleeping and had dropped his cocky attitude. Instead of contacting a regular accident attorney, he decided to contact a motorcycle accident lawyer. This was a brilliant move, as the attorney knew what to look for regarding motorcycle accidents. Sure enough, the impending lawsuit was thrown out as the police confirmed the motorcyclist caused the accident.
Not only did this attorney get the case tossed before it saw the light of day, he also helped Tommy get some help. His personality had changed and he was more and more morose. Acting on the attorney's advice, my father-in-law got Tommy into some group therapy sessions. It seemed to help. After a few months, he even managed to swagger about the house.
