Bicycle Accident Attorneys

In 2008, about 52,000 Americans were injured in a bicycle accident. Nearly 1,500 of these traffic accidents affected bicyclists in Pennsylvania, resulting in 20 fatalities. While adults between 20 and 34 years old are most likely to be injured or killed in bike accidents, any cyclist is at risk of experiencing a personal injury when he or she rides on roadways with other motor vehicles.

When a bicycle rider is injured in a traffic accident, he or she will be entitled to a settlement for serious injuries and losses if another person is responsible. Examples of negligence include talking on the cell phone, failing to obey traffic laws and/or driving under the influence or drugs or alcohol. Any of these reckless and illegal behaviors can result in serious injury or death.

We aggressively represent our clients' rights to help them recover compensation for their medical bills, lost wages and pain and suffering.

Our lawyers have been distinguished by the Martindale-Hubbell AV rating (this is a prestigious recognition awarded by other accident attorneys and judges for our professionalism, skills and high ethical standards).
