HONOLULU, HI – A man has died of injuries suffered in a pedestrian accident in the Kalihi area last week, police said.

According to an update released by the Honolulu Police Department, the Honolulu Medical Examiner’s Office reported on Jan. 12 that the 75-year-old victim had been pronounced dead.

The collision took place Jan. 9 on North King Street near Gulick Avenue at about 6:45 a.m. A preliminary investigation determined that a motorist was traveling south on Gulick Avenue when she made a left turn onto North King Street and struck the pedestrian as he was crossing the street in a marked crosswalk.

The motorist, a 56-year-old woman, was not injured and stayed at the scene. It is not yet known whether drugs or alcohol were contributing factors in the incident, but investigators do not believe that speed was a factor.

In 2010 I opened my business called Sophisticated Facial and Nail Spa; then I had an accident. I tried to move a safe out of my business and it fell on my whole body. The safe weighed over 3,000 pounds. I was in the hospital for 29 days and when I got out of the hospital I called my insurance company and they told me that this accident wouldn't be covered under my business insurance. So I contacted a couple different attorneys but none of them would take on my case. I hired a company to paint my business and then she saw that my hand had a big scar. She asked me what happened to my elbow. I told her I had an accident here at my business and my business insurance company wouldn't cover it. She asked me if I had an attorney and I explained that I went to a couple of attorneys and none of them would take on my case. She recommended an attorney by the name of Glenn Honda. I contacted him and he took my case. Glenn was very passionate and explained to me that I have a good case. In the end Glenn won my case and as a favor to me because of everything I went through that he would give me a discount and not take as much as he normally does. Glenn settled my case in less than one year. I would highly recommend Glenn Honda for any personal injury accidents. Thank you Glenn Honda for all of your help and support with my case.

I'm so glad I met Glenn. He's honest, smart, and approachable. Glenn gave great advice during the initial consultation (free of charge, by the way). Through his guidance, I negotiated a settlement with the insurance company. His staff is great, too — professional, respectful, skilled and kind. The location of his office is convenient.
