Practice Areas / Bicycle & Pedestrian Accidents
Bicycle & Pedestrian Accident Attorney
Cyclists and pedestrians have no protection when a driver is distracted, speeding, or running a red light. The injuries are often catastrophic. We help the most vulnerable road users find the experienced representation they need.
Protecting Cyclists and Pedestrians
Shared trails, bike lanes, and walkable neighborhoods make communities better places to live, but they also create places where vulnerable road users and motor vehicles intersect, sometimes with devastating consequences.
When a cyclist or pedestrian is struck by a motor vehicle, the physical toll is almost always severe. Without a steel frame surrounding them, cyclists and pedestrians absorb the full force of the impact — leading to traumatic brain injuries, spinal damage, multiple fractures, internal injuries, and severe road rash. Many victims face months or years of recovery, significant lost income, and permanent disabilities.
Traffic laws protect cyclists and pedestrians, including rules that require drivers to yield in crosswalks and give cyclists safe clearance when passing. When drivers violate these rules, or simply aren't paying attention, and someone is hurt, our in-house team or one of our trusted co-counsel firms can build a case that documents the full extent of your injuries.
