Our Attorneys Handle Complications Common In Bike Accident Cases

Bicycle accident cases can be more complex than many victims realize. Most of these accidents happen because the cyclist was hit by a car, and so the injuries the victim suffers are often severe. Broken bones, head injuries, soft tissue damage, and painful road rash are common and can be debilitating. The cost of treating bicycle accident injuries, especially if you require surgery or develop complications, can quickly reach into the tens, sometimes hundreds, of thousands of dollars. Insurance companies take a hard look at high-value claims like this and will find many reasons to deny the claim or minimize the extent of your injuries.

One of our primary strengths is building a strong case that will withstand insurance carrier scrutiny. Our attorneys gather evidence to build your case, including witness statements, any video of the accident, such as dashcam footage, and testimony from medical experts who explain how your injuries occurred and what medical treatment is necessary for recovery.

Don’t try to take on the driver’s insurance company on your own. As you’re trying to heal, the last thing you should worry about is what to say to an insurance adjuster determined to deny your claim. Our attorneys act as the primary point of contact for your case to help prevent this.

Compensation Available For Bicycle Accident Claims

You have the right to claim compensation for all the financial damages you incurred because of the bicycle accident. This includes all current and future medical bills, lost wages if you couldn’t work due to your injuries, and property damage, like repairing or replacing your bike. Some victims may be disabled following a bike accident or have serious brain trauma that prohibits them from returning to the job they had before the accident. If this happens to you, our attorneys can also demand compensation for your loss of earning potential.

We also seek compensation for your diminished quality of life, scarring and disfigurement, pain and suffering, and emotional trauma. These non-economic damages are more difficult to quantify, but we have decades of combined experience doing so and seek fair consideration for the overall impact of the accident on your life.
