California Bicycle Accident Attorneys

A bicyclist is fatally injured every six hours in the United States.

If you have been involved in a bike accident in California, you have substantial rights under California law whether the bicycle accident is caused by a motorized vehicle, road conditions or other causes. These rights include the right to compensation for bicycle accident related medical expenses, lost income, property damage, future medical expenses, loss of future enjoyment of life, “pain & suffering”, scaring and disfigurement, disability and out of pocket expenses.

California law also provides very strict time limits within which bicycle accident victims must take specific action in order to preserve their rights. These limits can be as short as six months. Therefore, you should conact a California bike accident injury lawyer right away to ensure that your case is handled in a timely manner.
