Why Bicycle Accident Claims Are Tough to Win

Bicycle accidents can happen anywhere in Fairfield, but intersections and parking lots are common locations. The reality is that few motorists are looking carefully for people on two wheels. Motorists will pull directly in front of a cyclist or forget to pump the brakes and smash into them. Other collisions happen on the open road when an impatient driver tries to pass a bicyclist and cuts too close.

Accident victims often struggle to get insurance companies to take their injuries seriously. We wish you could snap your fingers and receive a fair settlement. In our experience, however, we need to fight for our clients’ rights.

Some of the challenges with bicycle accident claims include:

• Your injuries are probably serious. Because cyclists lack any type of buffer around them, they can suffer horrifying injuries. It’s much harder to communicate with an insurance company or even find evidence when you are stuck in bed with painful injuries.
• Some insurance adjusters blame cyclists for their own accidents. The driver who struck you might claim you were weaving in and out of your lane or even cut them off. You need a lawyer who can build a powerful case on your behalf explaining why you are the victim.
• The motorist who hit you could have fled the scene, meaning you need to make a claim on your uninsured motorist insurance. These insurers often suspect that injured cyclists crashed on their own.
• If a road defect contributed to an accident, then you will negotiate with the government. This is an especially difficult claim to make, with short deadlines.
• You must meet certain deadlines, otherwise you will undermine your capacity to receive any compensation.
