Serious Injuries

Bicycle and car accident lawsuits are different from regular car accident cases because the injuries tend to be more serious and often involve permanent consequences such as grafting, loss of limbs, paraplegia, quadriplegia, and/or head injury. Most bicycle accidents involving a car result in serious injury or death.

Special Issues

Successfully litigating bicycle and car accident lawsuits requires specialized skill, knowledge and experience because these cases involve issues particular to bicycle and car accidents such as the extent and expense of the injuries and bicyclists' rights. For example, bicycle riders often don't get the respect and right-of-way they deserve. Because bikes are smaller than cars, trucks and SUVs, drivers often overlook bicycle riders or fail to give them proper rights on the road. That's why you need an experienced bicycle and car accident attorney like Edith Pearce.

Compensation

Damages that a bicycle car accident victim and the victim's family are entitled to recover may include: hospital and medical expenses; past and future lost earnings; past and future permanent physical disability, such as a limp, scars, loss of a limb; emotional distress, such as depression and anxiety; grief and emotional suffering caused by the death of a loved one; loss of love and companionship caused by the death of a loved one; damage or destruction of property; physical pain and suffering; loss of enjoyment of life.

To protect your legal rights following a bicycle car accident in Pennsylvania or New Jersey, it is wise to consult a personal injury law firm with experience handling bicycle car accident claims as soon as possible. Within the first week, important physical evidence can be lost, and witnesses may become hard to find.
