Severe Injuries and Financial Recovery

Bicycle accidents in California can happen when drivers speed, use their phones, or ignore traffic signals. Since cyclists have limited physical protection, these accidents can cause serious injuries, including fractures, road rash, traumatic brain injuries, and spinal cord injuries.

 

Some injuries require emergency treatment, surgery, physical therapy, or long-term rehabilitation. In severe cases, victims may face lasting mobility problems and changes to their daily lives. Medical bills and time away from work can also create financial difficulties. A personal injury claim can allow injured cyclists to seek compensation for medical expenses, future treatment, lost income, and emotional suffering. The compensation available depends on the circumstances of the accident, the injuries sustained, and applicable California law.

California Comparative Negligence Laws

California follows a comparative negligence rule, which means you may still recover compensation after a bicycle accident even if you share some responsibility for the incident. However, your compensation may be reduced as per your percentage of fault. Several factors can affect a settlement, including the severity of your injuries, medical expenses, insurance policy limits, and the share of fault assigned to each party.

Before accepting a settlement, it is important to understand your rights and review the offer carefully.
