FAQ Bicycle Accident Lawyer in Pottsville

  1. What should I do right after a bicycle accident? Call 911 if needed, get medical care, document the scene with photos, and collect witness information. These steps help preserve vital evidence.
  2. Do I need a lawyer even if it was “just a fender-bender” with my bike? Yes. Even seemingly minor accidents can lead to serious injuries or hidden costs. We’ll evaluate your case, fully document your losses, and fight for fair compensation.
  3. Who can be liable in a bicycle accident? Fault may lie with a driver, but also with a property owner (for unsafe road conditions) or a bike manufacturer (if there was a defect).
  4. What compensation can I recover? You may be entitled to damages for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and damage to your bicycle.
  5. How are your legal fees structured? We work on a contingency fee basis — you pay nothing unless we win compensation for you.
  6. How long do I have to file a claim for a bike accident in Pennsylvania? In most cases, you have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury claim.
Is there anything different if the injured person is a child? Yes — for minors, the statute of limitations usually doesn’t begin to run until they turn 18, giving more time to file.  FAQ Bicycle Accident Lawyer
