Bicycle Accidents

If you have been injured in a bicycle accident due to someone else’s negligence, you may be entitled to significant compensation. Our team helps you recover costs for medical bills and lost wages in California.

When a Second Changes Everything for a Cyclist

Riding through the streets of California offers freedom, but it comes with inherent risks when drivers fail to share the road safely. A collision often leaves a cyclist with life-altering injuries while the responsible party’s insurance company looks for ways to minimize your claim.

Faq

1.

How much is my bicycle accident case worth?

The value depends on medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. We evaluate every detail to maximize your recovery.
2.

What is the statute of limitations in California?

Generally, you have two years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit, but specific exceptions may apply.
3.

Can I recover damages if I was partially at fault?

Yes, California follows comparative negligence, meaning you can still recover damages even if you were partially responsible.
4.

How long does it take to settle a bicycle claim?

It varies based on case complexity, ranging from a few months for settlements to longer if trial is necessary.
5.

What should I do immediately after the accident?

Seek medical attention immediately, document the scene, and contact an experienced lawyer before speaking with insurance.
6.

Do I need a lawyer if the driver has insurance?

Yes, insurance companies often prioritize their profits. A lawyer ensures your interests are protected and you aren't underpaid.
7.

What if the driver fled the scene?

You may still be able to file a claim through your own uninsured motorist coverage or other available legal avenues.
8.

Does a helmet affect my claim?

Not wearing a helmet does not automatically bar you from recovery if the other party was primarily at fault for the accident.
