Bike Accidents
Protecting cyclists injured by negligent drivers and unsafe conditions.
Cyclists have little protection in a collision with a car or truck. Injuries are often serious, and insurance companies may try to argue the cyclist shares fault to reduce payouts.
We represent cyclists injured by careless motorists, dooring incidents, and hazardous road conditions. At Kelso Law Group, our attorneys know how insurers and defense teams evaluate claims because we have defended large companies and carriers — and we use that insight to build stronger cases for our clients.
Common Bicycle Accident Cases We Handle
Bicycle injury claims need evidence that tells your side of the story. We handle:
- Vehicle-bicycle collisions at intersections
- Dooring accidents along parked cars
- Hit-and-run bicycle crashes
- Road defect and pothole injury claims
- Bike lane and infrastructure negligence
- Catastrophic injury and wrongful death cycling cases
Compensation You May Be Entitled To
If someone else’s negligence caused your injuries, you should not have to bear the financial burden alone. The value of your claim depends on the severity of your injuries, the impact on your work and daily life, and the insurance coverage available.
Depending on your case, compensation may include:
- Emergency care, surgery, therapy, and future medical treatment
- Lost wages and reduced earning capacity
- Pain and suffering
- Property damage and out-of-pocket expenses
- Emotional distress and mental anguish
- Wrongful death damages for surviving family members
What To Do After a Bicycle Crash
After a bike accident, protect your health and preserve evidence with these steps:
- Seek medical attention immediately — even if you feel fine. Some serious injuries take time to appear.
- Call the police or appropriate authorities and make sure an official report is filed.
- Document the scene with photos, witness names, and your own notes while details are fresh.
- Notify your insurance company, but avoid giving a recorded statement to the at-fault party’s insurer.
- Contact Kelso Law Group before accepting any settlement offer. We can investigate liability and fight for full compensation.
