Central Valley Bicycle Crash Leads to $1.5M Settlement for Injured Cyclist

Miles, Sears & Eanni attorney Lyndsie N. Russell secured a $1.5 million settlement for Patricia and Randall Feller in a serious bicycle accident case filed in Fresno County Superior Court. On June 29, 2022, Patricia Feller, a 66-year-old avid road cyclist, was lawfully entering a four-way stop in North Fresno when she was struck by a driver who failed to yield—despite all other vehicles waiting their turn.

Mrs. Feller suffered severe injuries, including a traumatic brain injury, a fractured clavicle, fractured ankle, facial lacerations, and bruising. She underwent surgeries and continues to experience cognitive issues, including significant memory loss. Her husband, Randall Feller, brought a loss of consortium claim due to the caregiving responsibilities he assumed after the crash.

Despite the defense alleging comparative fault, the driver admitted to not seeing Mrs. Feller until he heard the impact. After several depositions, the defense tendered the full $1.5 million policy limits, resolving the case in August 2023.
