Determining Liability After a Bike Accident
It is understandable that cyclists are exposed to more dangers on the road by sharing it with much larger vehicles. We are fervent believers in your rights as a cyclist, and we will defend you to the end until we find the appropriate settlement for your accident. In addition to physical and property damage, an accident victim may feel very frustrated upon receiving a denial of liability from the at-fault party’s insurance provider. If that is your case, we promise to talk about the experience with you until all your questions are answered:
- How can you prove it was the driver’s fault?
- Will you ever receive compensation for your damaged bike?
- What will you use for transportation if your bike needs repairs or replacement?
- How will your medical bills get paid?
- What are your legal options?
- How will you make ends meet if you’re too injured to work?
The best way to prove liability is to take photos or videos of the scene, of your injuries, and the damage to your bike. Next, write down the names and contact information of anyone who might have witnessed your bicycle accident. Finally, you should keep a detailed log of every medical provider you see for your injuries. These three things can go a long way in ensuring you receive fair compensation for your injuries and losses.
The WTSC has reported that in over fifty percent of instances where a vehicle collides with a bike, the accident was caused by the driver being at fault. An experienced attorney will have familiarity with all of the frequent causes and be able to assist in proving you were not at fault.

No one should navigate the justice system on their own. Not only is it better to focus all your energy on making a full recovery, but injured parties without legal representation typically only get fractions of the compensation due.
The Advocates know all too well how unfairly insurance companies treat accident victims. Insurance providers will often deny legitimate injury claims for any reason possible, such as pre-existing injuries or liability concerns. They train their insurance adjusters to ask tricky and leading questions. And they might even spy on your social media in order to find proof the accident was not as severe as claimed. Don’t let the insurance companies cheat you out of a fair settlement. Hire an Advocate and make them pay the compensation your case deserves.
