Holding The Right Parties Accountable For Your Injuries
While drivers are supposed to yield to bicyclists on the road, negligent or reckless driving can cause devastating accidents that can lead to lifelong injuries or disabilities. Bicycle accidents can be severe, often resulting in significant injuries that can require extensive medical treatment.
Commonly, victims of bicycle accidents face traumatic brain injuries, back and spine injuries, and broken bones. The cost of medical care for these injuries quickly adds up, especially when you are unable to work while you recover. An experienced attorney can be crucial in navigating the complexities of personal injury claims, ensuring that your rights are protected throughout the process.
Common causes of bicycle accidents include:
- Distracted driving
- Roadway obstructions
- Driver failing to yield
- Poor road conditions
In Indiana, injured bicyclists can file a personal injury claim to recover compensation after an accident. You can obtain damages to cover your medical bills, rehabilitation costs, lost wages and lost earning capacity.
Determining liability in a bicycle accident requires thorough investigation and experienced legal analysis. Various parties, from drivers to municipal entities, could be held accountable. Our attorneys are adept at uncovering who is responsible and helping you obtain the compensation necessary to move forward.
