Attorneys for a 70-year-old North Carolina man who suffered a traumatic brain injury and sustained severe injuries to the right side of his body after the motorcycle he was riding struck a pickup truck in Kent in 2018 have secured a $4.6 million settlement.

Lead plaintiff attorney Gerard McEnery said the biggest obstacle he could have faced with a jury if the case had gone that far was the attitude some people have of motorcyclists. But McEnery, founder of Milford-based McEnery, Price, Messey & Sullivan, said his client Paul Cheney was not your typical motorcyclist.
