California Bicycle Accident Attorney

Because a bike rider is relatively unprotected in the case of an accident with a motor vehicle, bicycle accidents are often catastrophic or even deadly to the person riding the bike. A bicycle accident may occur because the driver of a car, truck or bus does not see the bike rider, is not paying attention, is tired, is inexperienced or is driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. An accident may also occur due to error on the part of the bicycle rider, because of faulty auto parts or poor maintenance, or because of poor road or weather conditions.

If you have been injured in a bicycle accident in California, you have the right to work with an attorney in order to seek financial compensation for your injuries and losses. A bicycle accident victim may face overwhelming medical bills which just add to the stress associated with an accident and serious injuries, but working with an attorney and recovering financial damages can alleviate this pressure. One may be able to recover money for medical expenses, lost wages from being unable to work, pain and suffering and emotional trauma. This can help a bicycle accident victim and his or her family face a brighter and better future.

Some of the serious injuries that a bike rider may suffer in an accident include:

• Spinal cord injuries
• Lacerations and “road rash” from contact with the road
• Broken bones and fractures
• Internal injuries
• Head trauma
• Neck injuries
