Hold Responsible Parties Liable for Bike Accident Injuries

It can be challenging to pinpoint who is at fault for your bicycle crash. For example, there could be multiple parties to blame, or a third party (such as New York City) could have been negligent and that contributed to the accident. 

Our legal experts gather details about your crash to establish liability. We look at all potential options, including: 

• Motor vehicle drivers
• Commercial truck or bus drivers
• Pedestrians
• The negligent driver’s employer
• City transit companies
• Manufacturers
• Government officials

Once we identify responsible parties, we prove how their negligence caused your damages. To ensure you receive maximum compensation, partner with our team of proficient Brooklyn bike accident lawyers.

You Can Still Sue If You Are Partially Liable

If an insurance adjuster tells you that you cannot sue because you are partially at fault for the bike accident, hang up the phone. Brooklyn adheres to comparative negligence laws. This means that you can still collect compensation despite sharing some blame for the collision.

CPLR Section 1411 of New York law states that a plaintiff’s damages will diminish based on their proportion of fault. Therefore, you may share partial responsibility for the incident, but you can still recover a financial payout.

Our lawyers are well-versed in NY law, and we will not let an insurance company bully you into believing you do not deserve a fair settlement. Let our team handle negotiating compensation on your behalf, and we will maximize the total dollar amount you receive.

Secure Compensation for Your Bicycle Accident Injuries

If you were injured in a bicycle accident due to another party, it is essential to understand your rights. If the accident was caused by someone else’s negligence, carelessness, or maliciousness, that person is responsible for all of your economic and non-economic damages.

We fight for our clients to collect substantial monetary payouts to cover their losses. We seek to recover damages like:

• Pain and suffering: Emotional distress, inconvenience, and loss of enjoyment of life
• Medical expenses: Hospital bills, medical supply costs, and future long-term care and rehabilitation costs
• Diminished earning capacity: Loss of income and benefits due to permanent injuries preventing you from returning to work
• Lost wages: Reduction in income because of missing work due to injuries
• Property damages: Cost of repairing or replacing your bike

Pursue a Wrongful Death Claim After a Fatal Bicycle Crash 

If you lost a loved one in a bicycle accident, you can file a wrongful death lawsuit with an experienced personal injury lawyer. Family members are entitled to recover the above losses in addition to funeral expenses on behalf of the deceased person’s estate and for the loss of spousal and parental income and support.

Sorting out your life after losing a loved one is difficult, so our lawyers take some of the stress off of you by handling your case. We make sure your wrongful death claim gets filed on time, and we pursue maximum financial recovery on account of your family.

Don’t Wait to File an Accident Claim

In New York, there are time limits that are known as statutes of limitations for all types of injury cases, and if you fail to start your claim on time you can lose your right to recover money to compensate you for your damages.

Prevent these types of problems by hiring our law firm to file an accident claim on your behalf. We will take care of any legal paperwork you need completed to ensure nothing stands in the way of you collecting a fair settlement.
