Sumner Law

I am a 71 year old, female bicyclist who was hit by a car in October of 2018 and suffered some pretty severe injuries. I hired Scott Sumner, The Pedal Lawyer, after being dissatisfied with the first lawyer I hired for my personal injury lawsuit. Communicating with Scott and his senior legal assistant, Cynthia Byrd was like night and day in comparison to the first lawyer. Scott always explained things to me clearly and succinctly in terms of how we were going to proceed with the case. He explained the time line and always let me know when there was going to be a delay. Scott's understanding and detailed description of the scene of the accident was truly remarkable. I am truly pleased with the outcome.

I was represented by Mr. Sumner in a case involving a truck that had struck me while on my bicycle . His outstanding skillset included an in-depth legal understanding, an easy to understand approach and, most importantly, an ability to get me to verbalize my story. Even though the opposing council was excessively aggressive and, at times, insulting to me, Mr. Sumner maintained a respectful and sympathetic view of the trucker; always respectful and the way I wanted to be represented. Needless to say, even after 3 weeks of court days filled with evidence and testimony, a unanimous jury found the trucker at fault. Mr. Sumner is how all lawyers should behave, a pleasure to work with and someone, I hope never to have to call again for the right reason; i don't ever want to experience the trauma I went through.

We are grateful for Cynthia and Scott. They do an excellent job working with us and explain everything and are patient.

Mr. Sumner is a smart and knowledgeable attorney who actually cares about his clients. Not to mention, his communication and attention to details was outstanding.
