HONOLULU, HI – A man was critically injured when two motorcycles collided in the Makaha area last week, the Honolulu Police Department reported.

The accident took place Aug. 22 on Farrington Highway west of Makua Valley Road. According to the police department’s Traffic Division, a 34-year-old man was riding a motorcycle westbound at about 5 p.m. when he was struck from behind by another motorcycle.

The 34-year-old, who was not wearing a helmet at the time, was ejected from the bike onto the roadway. He was taken to an area hospital and was listed in critical condition.

The rider of the second motorcycle, a 32-year-old man, refused treatment at the scene.

At this time, police do not believe that speed, drugs or alcohol were contributing factors in the collision, but the investigation is continuing.

Aloha, The team at Recovery Law Center was exceptional beyond expectations. Their professionalism, insight of my situation, and knowledge was on point from beginning to the end. They were on point and proactive on behalf of me and I felt very comfortable. I always felt assured that they were in control of my situation as if I was family. From fast replies to any questions I had to sending holiday cards in the mail. They encouraged and guided me in this first time ordeal on my path to recovery. I would recommend them to anyone. I have a great deal of gratitude and appreciation. I could go on for days with praise, but long story short they treated me like Ohana and I was beyond pleased with the settlement. Thank you guys! Aloha.

I was Glenn Honda's client twice. Both times, he was my personal injury attorney. The first time, I was walking out the door of this building and the hydraulic malfunctioned, shoving me out. Well, as the door shoved me forward, it caught one of my fingers and partially amputated it. (It's fine now thank God). The insurance company wouldn't even pay my emergency bills. Glenn even hired an engineer to show that the hydraulic was defective. He made the insurance company pay! The second time I was walking and there was dirt and leaves covering a more than one-inch rise in the sidewalk. The City scoffed at me and my claim. But again, Glenn Honda to the rescue — He took the case all the way to arbitration. I recommend him. He fights hard for his clients.

Just want to Thank Glen Honda, Jolie and the Recovery Law Center for being supportive caring and having my back from the beginning to the end of my journey. They handled every little detail of my case and always took the time to email, call and or check on me. I am grateful for all of their efforts and hard work. Mahalo.

Compassionate & Aggressive Representation. I was at a stop light when I was hit from behind by someone who was not paying attention. In addition to the damages to my car I was injured. The insurance company overwhelmed me with paperwork. It was an extremely difficult time for me. I was referred to Mr. Honda by a friend. Mr. Honda was only concerned about me and my injuries. He told me to concentrate on getting better and not to worry about anything else. It was such a relief not having to worry about the paperwork jungle that the insurance company was putting me through. He was able to negotiate a fair settlement for me without having to go through litigation. I would recommend Mr. Honda because his focus is really on the client's well being rather than the dollar amount of the case. Thank you Mr. Honda for your compassion towards me and, your aggressive approach with the insurance company.
