Do You Need a Bicycle Accident Lawyer?

If you were injured in a collision with a car or truck, you may assume that the driver will be found at fault and that you will be able to collect compensation with a simple insurance claim. Unfortunately, it is rarely that simple when it comes to bike accidents. The insurance companies fight hard to avoid paying or to pay far less than you deserve, even if you had the right of way.

If you were injured in a hit and run accident, a bicycle accident lawyer can help you pursue every avenue of compensation. There may be insurance coverage available to you even if we cannot locate the driver.

In single vehicle and hit and run bicycle accidents there are often factors such as defective bicycle or parts or roadway defects that can open up avenues of compensation for your injuries in accidents where victims are often under the impression that no compensation is available.
