FAQs
t's common for some injuries to manifest later, so it's important to seek medical attention immediately after the accident, even if you don't feel hurt. Documenting your injuries early on is crucial for building a strong case. If you develop symptoms later, consult with a doctor and notify your lawyer.
Most bike accident lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if you win your case. The fee is usually a percentage of the settlement or award, so you don't have to worry about upfront costs.
Many bike accident cases are settled out of court through negotiations with insurance companies. However, if a fair settlement cannot be reached, your lawyer may recommend taking your case to trial to pursue the compensation you deserve.
Yes, you may be able to file a claim against the government entity responsible for maintaining the road. These cases can be complex, and there are often strict deadlines for filing claims against government entities, so it's important to consult with a lawyer promptly.
If a defective bike part caused the accident, you might have a product liability claim against the manufacturer or retailer. A bike accident lawyer can help determine if this is a viable option for your case.
Key evidence includes police reports, medical records, photos of the accident scene and your injuries, witness statements, and any available video footage. An experienced lawyer can help gather and preserve this evidence.
Yes, you can still file a claim even if you weren't wearing a helmet. However, not wearing a helmet might affect the amount of compensation you receive, especially if your injuries could have been mitigated by wearing one.
It's often best to consult with a lawyer before accepting any settlement offers. Insurance companies may offer low settlements to save money, but a lawyer can help ensure you receive fair compensation for your injuries and damages.
Michigan follows a comparative negligence rule, which means you can still recover compensation even if you were partially at fault. However, your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault.
In Michigan, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims, including bike accidents, is typically three years from the date of the accident. It's important to consult with a lawyer as soon as possible to ensure timely filing.
If the at-fault driver is uninsured or underinsured, you may still be able to recover compensation through your own insurance policy's uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage. A bike accident lawyer can help you navigate this process.
Potentially liable parties include drivers, other cyclists, pedestrians, manufacturers of defective bike parts, or even local governments if the accident was caused by poor road conditions or faulty signage.
You may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, lost wages, loss of earning capacity, pain and suffering, and property damage. In some cases, punitive damages may also be awarded.
A bike accident lawyer can investigate the accident, gather evidence, deal with insurance companies, and represent you in court if necessary. They will work to secure the compensation you deserve for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
First, ensure your safety and get medical attention if needed. Then, document the scene by taking photos, gathering witness information, and contacting the police to file a report. It's also crucial to contact an experienced bike accident lawyer to discuss your case.
