Bicycle Accidents

Bicycle accidents can cause serious injuries or death. Bicycle accident cases are different from accidents that only involve cars. The circumstances surrounding an accident, the operation of the striking vehicle and the manner of the collision determine whether a recovery can be made. It is important that the victim of a bicycle/car accident discuss the accident with an attorney so the issues specific to that claim may be considered. Our firm has litigated cases on behalf of injured bicyclists and we understand the issues that can arise.
