Montana Bicycle Accidents Lawyer

Protect your rights after a bicycle accident with an experienced Montana bicycle accident attorney.

Bicycle accidents, particularly those involving vehicles, can have catastrophic consequences. A bicyclist is highly vulnerable, with minimal protection between the rider and the road in the event of a crash. This leaves them susceptible to life-altering injuries such as paralysis or traumatic brain injury, and tragically, even death. If you or a loved one has experienced injury or loss due to a bicycle accident, it is crucial to consult with an attorney who can provide guidance on the applicable laws. At Strong Law, our team of experienced bicycle accident lawyers in Montana is prepared to address your inquiries and assist you in taking the necessary steps to safeguard your rights. Rest assured, we will vigorously advocate for your rightful compensation in light of the injuries you have sustained.

BICYCLE ACCIDENTS HAVE FAR-REACHING CONSEQUENCES

When cyclists take to the roads, they face significant exposure and high risks. In the unfortunate event of being involved in a collision with a car or truck, the potential for life-altering injuries is substantial. According to the CDC, bicycle accidents claim the lives of over 1,000 individuals each year, with close to 467,000 people sustaining injuries in 2015 alone. The economic toll of these accidents amounts to a staggering $10 billion annually. If you find yourself among those injured in a bicycle accident, the burden of medical expenses and lost productivity can be overwhelming. However, when negligence on the part of another party is the cause, you deserve rightful compensation for your injuries. By partnering with our accomplished Montana bicycle accident lawyers, you can pursue the compensation you rightly deserve. Call 206-737-7108 to get a free legal consultation.

FAQ’S ABOUT BICYCLE ACCIDENTS IN MONTANA

After experiencing a serious accident, it’s natural to feel overwhelmed by understanding the impact of your injuries and navigating insurance inquiries. The flood of questions, mounting bills, and turbulent emotions can easily consume you. But remember, you don’t have to face this alone. By accessing the right resources, dealing with life after an accident doesn’t have to be an intimidating undertaking. Here, we address some common inquiries our clients have following a bicycle accident.

Who is responsible in a bicycle accident?

Determining fault in a bicycle accident requires a comprehensive understanding of the incident and its surrounding circumstances. At Strong Law, we collaborate with you to meticulously analyze the evidence and ascertain where the responsibility lies. Fault can be attributed to various parties involved, including the cyclist, other motorists, pedestrians, and even government entities responsible for the maintenance of bike paths and street signs. With the guidance of a skilled bicycle accident lawyer, you can make informed decisions regarding liability and seek legal recourse against those negligent parties who are accountable for your injuries.

What injuries are typically suffered in bicycle collisions?

After a bicycle accident, leg and arm injuries are frequently observed. In some cases, injuries to the chest may also occur. While helmets provide protection for the skull, concussions still commonly occur due to the intense impact that results from being thrown off a bike. Many victims experience cuts and lacerations, and the risk of blood clots is heightened when bones are broken. Additionally, spinal cord injuries, which can lead to paralysis, are also possible. In the most severe crashes, victims may tragically lose their lives.

How soon must I submit a claim following my bicycle accident?

The time frame for filing a claim depends on the party at fault. If the negligent party is a driver or another cyclist, in Montana, you have a two-year window from the accident date to initiate a claim. However, it is important to note that delaying the claim reduces the likelihood of success as evidence may be lost and details become more challenging to substantiate.

Do I have the right to file a lawsuit if my actions were partially responsible for causing a bicycle accident?

Absolutely! In the event of a bicycle accident, you can still file a personal injury claim, even if you bear some responsibility. Montana operates under a comparative fault system, allowing victims to seek damages despite sharing fault. It’s important to note that the compensation you receive may be reduced proportionally to your degree of fault in the accident, but rest assured, you are still entitled to seek and obtain rightful compensation.

“Unbelievable work!”

I had a claim involving my own insurance company. I tried to negotiate with them, and they completely denied my claim – two times. I then hired Strong Law, and the change was instant. The insurance company immediately began negotiating, and Jed was able to secure an unbelievably good settlement. I will never again attempt to take-on an insurance company without Strong Law in my corner. Thank you!”

WHY YOU NEED A MONTANA CITY BICYCLE ACCIDENT LAWYER?

If you or a loved one has been involved in a bicycle accident, it is crucial to seek the expertise of a skilled bicycle accident lawyer right away. While it might be tempting to rely solely on insurance companies for compensation, they often try to shift blame onto the victim and offer settlements that fall far short of what is necessary.

A skilled lawyer will assist you in considering all potential expenses, including long-term wage loss, companionship, and emotional distress.

What Is the Value of My Case?

The value of an injury case depends upon many factors related to the extent of your injuries and any other losses associated with your claim. You may have medical bills, lost income, costs associated with pain and suffering, among other possible damages. To learn the possible value of your case, contact the team at Strong Law. In a free case evaluation, we’ll let you know how much your case may be worth.

What Are Your Hours?

Strong Law is open five days a week between 9am and 5pm. In addition, we offer after hours return calls, weekend calls, and online chat.

What Kinds Of Cases Are Personal Injury?

Call us to know for sure, but a good rule of thumb is when an “accident” that happened to you because of the acts of or misdeeds of another party. Examples are: Auto accidents; motorcycle accidents; semi-truck accidents; wrongful death; medical malpractice; slip, trip and fall; boating accidents, faulty equipment, nursing home abuse; and many others.

Will I Be Charged To Consult Or Talk With You?

No, not ever. Strong Law is a contingency personal injury firm offering specialized experience along with access when you need it. Our goal is to gain the best settlement and provide comfort in the process, so easy access to us is part of our best practices.

What Does Contingency Mean?

Contingency in a legal matter means an expense to the client based on the outcome of a future event or circumstance which is possible but cannot be predicted with certainty. Said another way, Strong Law gets paid only if your case settles.

Can You Give Me An Assessment Of My Case?

Absolutely. While we cannot guarantee anything, nor do we imply a settlement, our willingness to take your case (and do it on contingency) is our voice that we feel your case has strong merit. After speaking with you, we can provide a merit assessment over the phone. However, we caution that accepting your case does not promise anything, your outcome is reflected in the law firm you choose.

What Should I Do If I’m Having Problems, Like Their Insurance Company Is Calling Me?

Always secure an attorney first. If you sign up with Strong Law now, you can advise their insurance company that you have representation and give them our name and contact information. From that time forward, they should not be contacting you again; it’s the law. If you do not sign with an attorney, like Strong Law, you will need to speak with them and represent yourself to resolve your injury. We strongly urge against this; insurance companies are skilled at ensuring their best interests over yours.

What Are Common Reasons For Insurance Injury Denials?

Make sure you receive medical treatment as soon as possible after an accident, otherwise insurance may argue your pain is from an unrelated incident.Insurance companies will be going out of their way to find some proof that the accident was your fault. Don’t be intimidated.If you have preexisting medical conditions that make you more likely to suffer an injury, it is not uncommon for insurance agencies to deny claims based on this.

How Long Does A Case Take To Settle?

It depends on many factors like medical care, future needs, evidence, proof of liability, and many others. Some cases take months while others can last a couple years. Ultimately, our goal is to represent you and what is going to be best for you in the long run.

Why Can Cases Last Years?

Because the law dictates it. There are many layers to make sure the insurance companies treat you with optimal care. For example, there will be time spent for medical treatments you might need. There is time to gather the needed medical reports and discover any long term impacts this injury will have on your life today and into the future. There is time for the other side to review our demands, research, and respond as well. It can feel like a long time, but we follow the law and strategize for the best benefit to you. We are with you the whole time.
