California Bicycle or Scooter Accidents

In California, bicycle (+ e-bikes) and scooter accidents, influenced by factors like human error and road conditions, can be devastating. Despite bicycles not being on equal footing with vehicles, riders maintain the same rights as pedestrians. Hiring Bridgewater Law Group as your legal guardians, we’ll bring compassion and unwavering truth to help your bicycle injury, protecting your rights with transparency. In the aftermath of a bike accident, consider us your vigilant guides, dedicated to navigating the complexities of insurance to propel you forward toward wholeness and restored confidence.

Steps to Take After a Bicycle/Scooter Accident:

Seek Medical Attention:

The first priority after a bike or scooter accident is to seek medical attention. Even if injuries seem minor, it’s essential to consult with a healthcare professional to address any underlying issues.

Contact Law Enforcement:

Report the incident to local law enforcement. The police report will serve as crucial evidence when seeking compensation for damages.

Gather Information:

Collect as much information as possible at the accident scene. This includes the contact details of the driver, eyewitness accounts, and photographs of the scene.

Preserve Evidence:

Preserve any evidence related to the accident, such as clothing worn during the incident, photos of injuries, and medical records.

Consult with an Attorney:

Seeking legal counsel is paramount after a pedestrian accident. An experienced personal injury attorney can guide you through the legal process and help you understand your rights.

How Bridgewater Law Group can help with your Bicycle/Scooter Accident:

Bike and Scooter accidents can have devastating consequences, but knowing your rights and seeking legal help can make a significant difference in the aftermath. If you or someone you know has been involved in a bike or scooter accident in California, taking prompt action and consulting with an experienced attorney is crucial to ensure that justice is served. Remember, you don’t have to navigate the legal maze alone—legal support from Bridgewater Law Group is available 24/7 to help you on the road to recovery.

Bicycle/Scooter Injuries we can claim.

Bicycle and Scooter accidents can result in a range of injuries, from contusions and soft tissue injuries to fractures, head injuries, and damage to internal organs. The severity depends on factors like the speed of the vehicle, impact point, and the pedestrian’s age and physical condition. Soft tissue injuries, fractures, concussions, traumatic brain injuries, back and spinal cord injuries, internal injuries, facial injuries, and emotional trauma are common outcomes. Immediate medical attention is crucial, as some injuries may not show symptoms right away, ensuring proper treatment and creating a documented record for potential legal proceedings.

Understanding Our Legal Services and How We Can Support Your Case

In the bustling roads of California, cyclists and scooter riders are owed a heightened duty of care by motorists. Given their vulnerability, if you’re involved in an accident while riding a bicycle or scooter, there could be grounds for holding negligent drivers accountable for your injuries.
The crux of establishing liability in bicycle and scooter accidents revolves around the circumstances of the crash. If a motorist was negligent, such as driving distractedly or violating traffic laws, they can be held liable. However, determining liability might also involve looking into other factors like road conditions or equipment failure, potentially implicating other parties.
Professional assessment of complex scenarios involving multiple parties, including motorists, city authorities, or equipment manufacturers. Overcoming challenges in dealing with insurance companies or uncooperative parties. An attorney ensures effective communication and negotiation. Tackling common defense tactics by insurance companies that might try to shift blame or minimize the impact of injuries. Comprehensive calculation of damages, encompassing medical bills, rehabilitation costs, loss of income, and non-economic damages such as pain and suffering. Guidance in navigating the legal proceedings, ensuring that your rights as a cyclist or scooter rider are fully protected and advocated for.
Unlike rideshare-specific insurance policies, bicycle and scooter accidents may involve dealing with the motorist’s insurance company or, in some cases, the rider’s own insurance. The coverage and compensation depend on the policies in place and the liability established.
Prioritize safety and health. Seek medical attention immediately for any injuries. Report the incident to law enforcement and ensure an official accident report is filed. Gather and exchange information with all parties involved, including witnesses. Document the accident scene, injuries, and any damages with photos or videos. Avoid providing recorded statements to insurance companies before consulting with an attorney. Consult with a seasoned bicycle and scooter accident attorney to explore your legal options and ensure a fair settlement. Maintain thorough records of all medical treatments, expenses, and impacts on your daily life.
Like rideshare cases, attorneys handling bicycle and scooter accidents often operate on a contingency fee basis, meaning they charge a percentage of the settlement only if the case is won. This arrangement aligns the attorney’s interests with yours, ensuring a commitment to achieving the best possible outcome.
