Bicycle Accident Lawyer Sumter, SC

Riding your bike along the scenic trails surrounding beautiful, historic Sumter is a lovely way to enjoy the sunshine and get exercise. Many people also opt for cycling as their primary form of transportation. South Carolina law permits cyclists the same rights to the road as other vehicles, like cars and trucks, but the truth is that there is still considerable risk when sharing the road with motorized vehicles. Cyclists lack the protection of a car or truck, and even if you are wearing a helmet and other protective gear, the chances of suffering a catastrophic injury are high.

If you’ve been hurt in a cycling accident, we want to help you. At Woron and Dhillon, LLC, we focus on helping injured victims like yourself demand the fair compensation they need to pay for their medical bills and other losses stemming from the bike accident. Contact us today for a free consultation with a Sumter, SC, bicycle accident lawyer.

How Can A Sumter Bicycle Accident Lawyer Help Me?

Bicycle accident lawyers are personal injury attorneys who represent people who were injured while riding their bikes. Many times, these are people who have been struck by a car, but there are other causes for a bike wreck. Potholes or other road hazards that wouldn’t face a car may cause someone on the much-smaller bike to wreck. Or, perhaps your bike malfunctioned, sending you sprawling. This is why we start with a thorough investigation of your accident. We gather evidence to determine the at-fault party in your wreck, then build a case of negligence against them, whether it was a driver or the city’s responsibility for proper road upkeep.

Once we’ve determined the negligent party, we properly value your claim to ensure you receive fair compensation for all your losses, from medical care to replacing your bike, and consideration for your pain and suffering. We have the experience necessary to properly value your claim and are determined to demand every penny you’re entitled to.

Complications In Bike Accident Claims

Bicycle accident claims can get complicated. It’s not uncommon for the driver who hits a cyclist to blame the person on the bike, even if the cyclist had every right to use the lane of the road they were traveling in. We fight back and make sure that the at-fault driver is accountable for the harm they caused.

Another concern in a bike accident case is that these are often high-value claims. Injuries can be severe, and medical bills quickly add up. Insurance companies take a close look at high-value claims and will try many tricks to reduce the amount or even deny the claim outright. Trust our legal team to take care of all negotiators with the insurance company. We’re only interested in protecting you, not the insurance company’s bottom line.
