FAQ Bicycle Accident Lawyers in Wilkes-Barre, PA
- Do I need a lawyer after a bicycle accident in Wilkes-Barre? Yes. Our Wilkes-Barre personal injury team at Metzger Wickersham helps you deal with insurance adjusters, investigate the crash, and fight for fair compensation.
- What can I recover if I’m injured in a bike crash? You may be entitled to compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and property damage (such as damage to your bicycle).
- How does Metzger Wickersham determine who is at fault? We conduct a full investigation — gathering police reports, witness statements, photos, and expert opinions if needed — to build a solid case against the responsible party.
- How long do I have to file a claim in Pennsylvania? In Pennsylvania, the statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is two years from the date of the accident.
- What if I was partly at fault for the accident? Pennsylvania uses a modified comparative negligence rule: you can still recover damages if you are 50% or less at fault. However, your compensation may be reduced in proportion to your share of fault.
- How much does Metzger Wickersham charge for a bicycle accident case? We work on a contingency-fee basis — you only pay if we recover compensation for you.
