Idaho Bicycle Accidents Lawyer

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

Bicycle accidents, especially those involving vehicles, can have devastating consequences. A bicyclist is highly exposed, with minimal protection between the rider and the road in the event of a crash. This means life-altering injuries, such as paralysis or traumatic brain injury, and even death can happen in a bicycle accident. If you have been injured while riding a bicycle or if you have lost a loved one due to a crash, you need to speak with an attorney to understand the laws that apply to your situation. Strong Law has a team of bicycle accident lawyers in Idaho who are ready to answer your questions and help you take the necessary measures to protect your rights. We will fight for you to get adequate compensation for your injuries.

BICYCLE ACCIDENTS HAVE FAR-REACHING CONSEQUENCES

When bicyclists take to the roads, they are highly exposed and at high risk. If you are hit by a car or truck, the risk of serious, life-altering injuries is high. The CDC estimates that every year over 1,000 people die in bicycle accidents. In 2015, close to 467,000 people sustained injuries. The cost of these accidents nationwide is $10 billion a year. If you are among those injured in a bicycle accident, you suffer medical costs and lost productivity. When the accident was due to someone else's negligence, you deserve to get compensated for your injuries. Working with our Idaho bicycle accident lawyers will help you get the compensation you deserve. Call 206-737-2997 to get a free legal consultation.

FAQ’S ABOUT BICYCLE ACCIDENTS IDAHO

The days after a serious accident can be confusing. Not only are you dealing with the aftermath of the accident and its resulting injuries, but you are also fielding calls from insurance providers and watching your bills pile up. You face questions, and often need answers quickly. Here are some common questions that our clients ask after a bicycle accident.

Who is at fault in a bicycle accident?

Determining fault in a bicycle accident requires knowledge of the accident and its circumstances. Strong Law will work with you to examine evidence and determine where the fault lies. Fault can lie with the cyclist, other motorists, pedestrians, and even government bodies responsible for maintaining bike paths and street signs. A skilled bicycle accident lawyer can help you decide who is at fault and hold those negligent parties responsible for your injuries.

What injuries are common in bicycle accidents?

Leg and arm injuries are very common after a bicycle accident. Sometimes injuries to the chest also occur. Though helmets can protect the skull, concussions are still common because of the strong impact that occurs if someone is thrown from a bike. Many victims suffer cuts and lacerations, and broken bones can increase the risk of blood clots. Spinal cord injuries, including paralysis, can also occur. In the most serious crashes, victims may lose their lives.

How long do I have to file a claim after a bicycle accident?

This depends on who is at fault. If the negligent party is a driver or another cyclist, the state of Idaho allows two years from the date of the accident to file a claim. That said, the longer you wait to make a claim, the less success you will have because the evidence is lost and details become harder to prove.

Can I file a claim if I was partially at fault for a bicycle accident?

Yes, even if you share fault, you can file a personal injury claim after a bicycle accident. Idaho is a comparative fault state, which means victims can recover damages even if they share fault in the claim. Your claim amount will be reduced by the percent of fault you share in the accident, but you can still receive compensation.

If you have suffered an injury after a bicycle accident in Idaho, you have many types of compensation possible. These include:

  • Compensation for lost wages, including lost earning capacity in the future
  • Compensation for emotional distress, mental anguish, pain and suffering, and loss of enjoyment of life
  • Compensation for permanent disfigurement, disability, or loss of a limb
  • Compensation to pay for medical bills, therapy, an ambulance ride, or hospital stay.

The key to ensuring you get all of the compensation you deserve is having the right legal representation. Strong Law is standing by to help you protect your rights. Our team of lawyers works with integrity to ensure the best possible outcome for our clients. We give each bicycle accident victim personalized attention, so they can work through the claim process with confidence, understanding what the next steps need to be.

“Very professional, and treated me as an equal.”

Just wanted to say thank you to Jed and his team at Strong Law. Not only was I happy with the outcome, but the entire process as a whole. I would definitely recommend this firm to anyone. Thanks again.

“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!”

DO YOU NEED A BOISE BICYCLE ACCIDENT LAWYER?

If you have been involved in a bicycle accident, or if you have lost a loved one because of a bicycle accident, you need the services of a bicycle accident lawyer. Often, accident victims or their families assume that they can simply request compensation from the insurance company and get a fair amount, only to find that insurance companies are quick to try to place blame for the accident on the victim or offer settlements that are far too small. Even if a settlement looks fair at the outset, when you start to count the costs of your injuries, you realize it falls short.

Working with an attorney ensures that you think about all of the potential costs of your injuries, including long-term loss of wages or companionship and the value of your emotional pain and suffering. This protects you from accepting a settlement that is too small and ensures that you are compensated fully for your injuries and their repercussions. Remember, accepting a settlement means you are no longer able to file a lawsuit, so you always need legal counsel before taking the payment. Having an attorney on your side also helps you avoid the temptation to take a settlement that is too small.

By digging into the evidence and making sure that all at-fault parties are held liable for the accident and its injuries, you can get the compensation that will cover all of your expenses, both your immediate medical bills and your future expenses, as a result of the accident. Strong Law has a team of lawyers who have the unique ability to dig into the evidence. We use our insider knowledge of the insurance world to your advantage to work with the insurance company while also strategically improving your position in the case. The end result is better compensation for our bicycle accident clients. We have settled several cases at over a million dollars, and we put the same level of dedication into every case we take.

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.
