Cyclists are vulnerable road users and cycling accidents can cause serious injuries with lasting consequences. If you’ve been injured in a bicycle accident, you may be entitled to compensation or to claim on behalf of a loved one who’s been injured.
Usually, your injury will have been caused by a collision with a car, van or other road user, but it could also be due to a road or cycle lane in poor condition (e.g. potholes), or because your bike or helmet failed. Even if you’ve been injured in a hit and run and can’t identify the driver you could still claim.
Contact us today to discuss making a bicycle accident claim for compensation. We’ll arrange a free initial consultation where we’ll learn more about the accident and tell you how much compensation you could be entitled to.
If you’ve lost a loved one who was involved in a cycling accident, we can also help you to secure compensation.
