Ian Kleinman and Bennett Lessmann Jr. of Kleinman & Lessmann in Boca Raton secured a more than $1.1 million settlement agreement with Illinois-based State Farm Mutual Insurance Co. over a collision that left their client in need of four surgeries.

“This was very close to … being a fatal crash,” said Lessmann, whose client, Jacqueline B. Walters, was driving a scooter westbound on Cheney Highway in Brevard County on the morning of June 21, 2014.
