Over Eleven Years Ago - and Still Thankful for Bill Chanfrau Sr. and His Team
My first time to Daytona Bike Week, in 2004. I rode on the back because I was a new rider and wanted to enjoy the experience from the back. Not 24 hours into my vacation, a riderless V8 motorcycle builder lost control of his bike, which hit a truck just in front of us, then careened off and hit us as we were all but still at a red light.
I remember waking up in the hospital as the Dr. told me he'd fixed my elbow and now had to prepare to take my leg. That was not happening. When my family arrived, the Dr. came in to talk to us, and, we asked him if he could recommend a local attorney. His first recommendation was Bill Chanfrau, Sr. What impressed me and my family, was that he was a Christian, and he was active in local community groups. We contacted his office, and their team came to meet with me in the hospital, took thorough information, documenting my physical condition via video. They were most respectful and professional. Roxie Courson was at that first meeting, and she was also most helpful navigating me through this long case.
If it had not been for the Chanfraus, I would have received nothing, after a broken arm was put back together with plates and screws, and losing my leg. It was their team who investigated and tracked down every lead, to eventually find a way to get me compensation. While no amount of money will ever bring back my leg or restore my physical health, if it were not for their hard work and representation, I may have received nothing. They persevered when the responsible party filed bankruptcy, uncovered every stone, and followed up on a tip from a good Samaritan, which ultimately led to a settlement.
Today, because of the settlement, Roxie's guidance toward a monthly annuity, I was able to retire due to advanced physical problems, and am able to pay my bills and live without a struggle. As I said at the proceedings, I'd gladly give back every cent to have my leg again. But reality is what it is, and it would be much more difficult without the financial help Bill Chanfrau Sr., and his team, got for me.
This team is top notch. Bill Sr. is caring and compassionate, and was so helpful to not only me, but my family as well. I'm grateful they were referred to me. It's important to me also, that sometimes, law firms will 'chase' after injured parties. Bill and his team, were and are, professional, courteous, helpful. I will always give them nothing but kudos, and refer anyone who asks to Bill and his team.
