Riding a bicycle can be a great way to commute or get some much-needed exercise. However, riding a bike is not without risks. When you’re riding a bicycle in traffic congested areas, or sharing the road with aggressive, negligent drivers, you may find yourself involved in a life-changing accident. If you were struck by a negligent driver while riding your bike, you may be entitled to compensation. At Avaness Law, our bicycle accident attorneys can help you fight for the fair settlement you deserve. As you focus on your recovery and move forward with your life, a bike accident attorney at Avaness Law will work tirelessly to help you recover the economic and non-economic damages you’re entitled to.
If you were injured in a bicycle accident, filing a claim and negotiating with the insurance company can seem daunting and overwhelming. When you hire a bicycle accident lawyer at Avaness Law, they will handle every aspect of your case, including taking on the insurance company and fighting for your right to maximum compensation.
At Avaness Law, a bike accident lawyer can help during this time, in a number of ways, including:
After a bike accident, the first step is filing an insurance claim with the other driver’s insurance provider. When you hire an attorney they will handle all communication with the insurance company, including settlement negotiations. If settlement negotiations are not successful and the insurance company refuses to make a reasonable settlement offer, your attorney may recommend filing a lawsuit. They will only advise you to file a lawsuit if they believe you stand a better chance of recovering fair compensation in court. While they prepare your case for trial, they will continue to negotiate with the insurance company.
The majority of the time, bike accident cases are settled out of court. However, a trial-tested attorney at Avaness Law will be prepared to represent you in court, if both parties can’t agree on a fair settlement amount.
