At TopDog Law, we endeavor to recover maximum compensation for our clients through top-notch legal representation following traumatic events such as bicycle accidents.
Whether you’re an ardent cyclist or someone who just enjoys a casual ride, a cycling accident can change your life. The stakes are higher in such accidents due to the relative exposure of a cyclist compared to a car driver. We understand that your accident may have injured you physically and also emotionally, causing you financial strain and affecting your quality of life.
Our nationally acclaimed bicycle accident lawyers have the experience and resources to fight for your rights and get you the compensation you deserve. At TopDog Law, we pride ourselves on our dedicated and compassionate approach, offering you the highest quality legal services while ensuring your comfort and peace of mind.
Bicycle accidents can happen anywhere and often lead to severe, sometimes catastrophic, injuries. Car crashes, trucking accidents, and other motor vehicle collisions all too often result in injured cyclists as a casualty of driver negligence.
Our legal team at TopDog Law can handle a wide range of bicycle accident cases. Our experienced lawyers make sure that regardless of the circumstances, we hold accountable those responsible for your accident and injuries. We’re ready to fight for your rights and seek the best possible outcome for your claim. Â
A bicycle accident can result in harrowing injuries. When such an accident happens due to someone else’s negligence, you deserve justice and fair compensation for your losses.
Our TopDog Law personal injury attorneys will recognize the nuances of your case using their wealth of experience from serving accident victims. As part of our nationwide practice, we learned the complexities of the local laws in your area and how they may affect your claim. Our team will use all relevant information to investigate, evaluate, and negotiate your claim properly.
While a bicycle accident may seem less severe than other types of personal injury claims, the cost of your damages may exceed your expectations. We know the tactics that insurance companies and defendants use to devalue or dismiss your losses.
We at TopDog Law are fierce litigators and will not hesitate to bring your case to trial if the insurance company refuses to accept a fair settlement. Our bicycle accident lawyers know how to respond to every development in your case, empowering you to make the decisions that will result in the most favorable outcome and compensate you fairly.
At TopDogLaw, we understand that bicycle accidents can happen anywhere and to anyone. As such, we offer nationwide representation to bicycle accident victims. We know the state laws particular to your area and have extensive experience handling cases in many jurisdictions across the country. Regardless of where you are, you can rely on us to fight for your rights on your home turf.Â
At TopDog Law, our experience, resources, and unwavering commitment can help you navigate the aftermath of your accident, offering personalized attention so your case receives the advocacy it deserves.Â
If you or a loved one has been involved in a bicycle accident, contact us or CALL (888) 778-1197.
Bicycle accidents can lead to serious, often life-threatening, injuries. The vast difference in size and weight between a bicycle and any motor vehicle, coupled with the lack of any protective barrier around the bicycle, means particularly devastating outcomes for bicyclists.
Some of the most common injuries in bicycle accidents are head injuries, including traumatic brain injuries (TBIs). TBIs, which include concussions, can lead to long-term or permanent impairments, affecting cognition, motor functions, emotional stability, and other aspects of a victim’s life.
TBI symptoms may not appear immediately after the accident and can manifest days or even weeks later. Bicycle accidents can cause them even when cyclists properly wear helmets, with side effects that may last weeks, months, or years, seriously impairing an individual’s ability to carry on with their normal activities and pursuits.
Spinal cord injuries are another serious consequence of bicycle accidents. They can result in partial or total paralysis, requiring extensive medical care and rehabilitation, and often drastically altering the victim’s quality of life.
Such injuries may require ongoing medical treatment, assistive devices, home modifications, and personal care assistance.
We can include these expenses in the compensation you seek through a bicycle accident lawsuit or claim. Our lawyers can present compelling evidence on your behalf to account for the full scope of these losses.Â
Other losses for which you may claim compensation include:Â
The latter often gets overlooked, but victims might suffer from significant emotional impacts after a bicycle accident, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, depression, or other mental health issues following the accident.Â
A skilled lawyer can not only provide you with valuable support and guidance, but can also obtain the resources and access to the services you need to recover.Â
No matter the nature of the injuries, a bicycle accident can lead to substantial medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and diminished quality of life. At TopDog Law, our committed lawyers understand these complex injuries and their impacts. We strive to ensure that you receive full compensation for your injuries to cover past, current, and future losses related to the accident.
The short answer is nothing. Our bike accident attorneys work on a contingency basis, meaning they do not get paid unless you get paid. We also have the resources to cover all the upfront costs for expenses, like experts who we will use to testify on your behalf. Therefore, we have every incentive to ensure that we obtain the most compensation possible for your injury.
CALL (888) 778-1197 and tell us your story today.
The time limit for filing a bicycle accident lawsuit, also known as the statute of limitations, varies from state to state. Moreover, some states make exceptions based on the specifics of the case. Consult our experienced bicycle accident lawyers as soon as possible to ensure you don’t miss the filing deadline. Generally, the sooner we begin investigating your claim, the better.
First and foremost, seek immediate medical attention, even if your injuries seem minor. Some injuries may not manifest immediately and can worsen with time. If possible, collect evidence at the scene, such as photographs, eyewitness contact information, and contact information for the at-fault party. However, your attorney can compile evidence and pursue any necessary information. Avoid discussing fault or providing statements to the at-fault party’s insurance company without first consulting your attorney.
Even if you partially caused the accident, you might still recover compensation. Many states follow the principle of comparative negligence, where the compensation you receive decreases in proportion to your degree of fault. However, each state has its own laws, including some that pertain specifically to cyclists. Discuss your case with our experienced bicycle accident lawyers to understand your rights and legal options.Â
At TopDog Law, we calculate the value of your claim based on a comprehensive assessment of your losses. This includes tangible damages like medical bills, property damage, and lost income, as well as intangible damages like pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life. We aim to secure a compensation package or award that covers all the losses you’ve incurred due to the accident.
