Pursuing Fair Compensation for Medical Needs

Whenever a collision occurs between a motor vehicle and a pedestrian or bicyclist, the latter is at a much greater risk for serious injuries such as head injuries and spinal cord injuries. If you've been in a pedestrian or bike accident, our first priority will be to ensure you have access to the medical attention you need to recover from your injuries.

Because pedestrians and bicyclists are vulnerable to heavy vehicles, drivers have a responsibility to keep an eye out for them. Even when fault seems clear cut, the other side may claim that you were at fault. We will ensure that a thorough investigation of the facts is performed by a skilled investigator.

Ensuring That Your Insurance Company Treats You Fairly

Even though you were injured in a pedestrian or bicycle accident, if you have auto insurance, your own insurance company may owe you compensation for your injuries. Medical payments (medpay) coverage is an optional plan that is supposed to cover your medical expenses after an accident, regardless of who was at fault. Also, if you have uninsured and under-insured motorist coverage, you should be protected from hit-and-run drivers and drivers who have no insurance or inadequate insurance.

Unfortunately, sometimes your own insurance company is reluctant to pay out on medpay or uninsured and under-insured motorist claims. Our attorneys will make sure you get the coverage you paid for.
