What Should I Do After a Bicycle Accident?

Your actions immediately following a bicycle accident are important. In the case of any motor vehicle accident, it is paramount that evidence is preserved and an experienced bicycle accident lawyer is contacted. If you have been in a bicycle accident, follow these five steps.

File a police report. Even if you do not think you are injured at the time of the accident, you may feel the effects hours or days later.

Obtain driver and witness contact information. Be sure to get this information even if police have already included it in their report.

Document what happened. Take pictures at the scene. As soon as possible after the accident, write down everything you can remember about what happened.

Preserve evidence. Don’t get your bike fixed or replace your helmet.

Decide how to proceed. If you decide to hire a bicycle accident attorney, do not talk to any insurance company until you have spoken with your attorney.

How Soon after a Pedestrian Accident should I get a Lawyer?

Quickly. To be safe, you should talk to an attorney as soon as possible, especially if the injuries are severe or a death has resulted. All too often valuable evidence disappears, witnesses move, memories grow dim and the practical ability to prove your case may diminish.

If you are still being treated by a physician, an attorney can also provide you with guidance concerning your medical care and help you deal with unpaid bills and getting needed treatment.

Legal advice can also be useful if you have questions about the settlement value of a claim, your insurance policy’s terms, or suspect bad faith on the part of your insurance company. Contact Thomas J. Henry to discuss your personal injury case for free.

I Hit a Pothole in the Road with my Bicycle and was Seriously Injured. Do I Have a Case?

It depends on the location of the pothole and whether it was created as a result of someone’s negligence or created naturally. The longer the pothole has existed and the larger the pothole is, the greater the chance that you have a case for your bicycle crash injury.

If I Suffer an Injury while on My Bicycle, Who can be Held Liable?

Depending on the circumstances surrounding your bike accident, you can possibly recover from the negligent vehicle driver, the vehicle owner, manufacturer or retailer of the bicycle or vehicle, a bicycle repair shop, or the entity that controls and maintains the road where the accident occurred.

Do I Need a Lawyer after a Distracted Driving Accident?

The details of a case involving a distracted driver can be complicated. An experienced lawyer can unravel the facts, prove that your injuries were caused by a distracted driver, and create a claim that compensates you for the money you lost while undergoing treatment and recovery.
