Understanding Our Legal Services and How We Can Support Your Case
Heightened Duty of Care for Bicycle and Scooter Riders
In the bustling roads of California, cyclists and scooter riders are owed a heightened duty of care by motorists. Given their vulnerability, if you’re involved in an accident while riding a bicycle or scooter, there could be grounds for holding negligent drivers accountable for your injuries.
Identifying Liability: The Crucial Factor
The crux of establishing liability in bicycle and scooter accidents revolves around the circumstances of the crash. If a motorist was negligent, such as driving distractedly or violating traffic laws, they can be held liable. However, determining liability might also involve looking into other factors like road conditions or equipment failure, potentially implicating other parties.
The Importance of Legal Representation in Bicycle and Scooter Accident Cases
Professional assessment of complex scenarios involving multiple parties, including motorists, city authorities, or equipment manufacturers.
Overcoming challenges in dealing with insurance companies or uncooperative parties. An attorney ensures effective communication and negotiation.
Tackling common defense tactics by insurance companies that might try to shift blame or minimize the impact of injuries.
Comprehensive calculation of damages, encompassing medical bills, rehabilitation costs, loss of income, and non-economic damages such as pain and suffering.
Guidance in navigating the legal proceedings, ensuring that your rights as a cyclist or scooter rider are fully protected and advocated for.
Insurance Intricacies in Bicycle and Scooter Accidents
Unlike rideshare-specific insurance policies, bicycle and scooter accidents may involve dealing with the motorist’s insurance company or, in some cases, the rider’s own insurance. The coverage and compensation depend on the policies in place and the liability established.
Essential Actions Following a Bicycle or Scooter Accident
Prioritize safety and health. Seek medical attention immediately for any injuries.
Report the incident to law enforcement and ensure an official accident report is filed.
Gather and exchange information with all parties involved, including witnesses.
Document the accident scene, injuries, and any damages with photos or videos.
Avoid providing recorded statements to insurance companies before consulting with an attorney.
Consult with a seasoned bicycle and scooter accident attorney to explore your legal options and ensure a fair settlement.
Maintain thorough records of all medical treatments, expenses, and impacts on your daily life.
Understanding Legal Fees in Bicycle and Scooter Accident Cases
Like rideshare cases, attorneys handling bicycle and scooter accidents often operate on a contingency fee basis, meaning they charge a percentage of the settlement only if the case is won. This arrangement aligns the attorney’s interests with yours, ensuring a commitment to achieving the best possible outcome.
