Determining Liability
There are a lot of bicycle injuries that happen. The CDC reported nearly half a million bicycle accident-related injuries in 2015. In each bicycle accident, there is a liable party. Sometimes there is shared fault, and other times it is solely one person’s fault.
Our job when we start any injury case is to determine who is at fault. When we take on a bicycle accident case, we look to the motorist to determine fault. We base this on the evidence that is gathered from the scene of the accident.
Once we know who is at fault, we can start fighting for your justice.
Types of Bicycle Accident Damages
If you are hurt in a bicycle accident, there are likely to be several times of damages that you suffer through. We work hard to ensure that you get every damage from your case possible. There are two types of damages in injury cases that we aim to recover: economic damages and non-economic damages.
Economic damages would include your medical bills, ambulance bill, cost of your bicycle if it was damaged, lost wages, etc. These damages are intended to reimburse you for the money you have spent and the money you have lost.
Your non-economic damages are intended to cover things such as emotional damages, pain, and suffering, as well as any loss in your quality of life.
How We Fight for Your Rights
We will go toe-to-toe with the liable party’s insurance company to ensure that they give you compensation in full. We go through negotiation with them until they come back with a fair offer. Sometimes this offer never comes, and we are required to take the case to court in order to get them to offer a fair settlement.
We do not often need to take a case to court but we will always prepare your case for court. That way we ensure that we are ready to give you the best representation possible.
