Bucks County Bicycle Accident Attorney
Cyclists have the same right to use Pennsylvania roads as any other motorist — yet every year, thousands are injured because drivers fail to share the road responsibly. A bicycle accident can result in devastating injuries, from broken bones to traumatic brain injuries, leaving victims facing months of recovery and overwhelming financial strain.
At Wilk Law Firm, our Bucks County bicycle accident attorneys advocate for injured cyclists and their families. We hold negligent drivers accountable and pursue full compensation for your injuries, medical expenses, and long-term needs.
Common Causes of Bicycle Accidents in Bucks County
Bicycle crashes are often the result of driver negligence, including:
- Distracted driving, such as texting or using a GPS while behind the wheel
- Failure to yield to cyclists at intersections or crosswalks
- Unsafe lane changes or passing too closely
- Speeding or reckless driving
- Opening car doors into cyclists’ paths (“dooring”)
- Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol
Even low-speed impacts can lead to severe, life-altering injuries for a cyclist. Our attorneys conduct detailed investigations to determine fault and build a strong claim for recovery.
Common Bicycle Accident Injuries
Without the protection of a vehicle, cyclists are extremely vulnerable to serious injuries, including:
- Head and traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
- Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
- Broken or fractured bones
- Internal bleeding or organ damage
- Severe road rash and lacerations
- Permanent disfigurement or disability
These injuries can lead to costly medical care, loss of mobility, and emotional trauma. Our firm ensures that every aspect of your suffering is considered when pursuing compensation.
Compensation for Bicycle Accident Victims
Victims of bicycle accidents may be entitled to recover damages for:
- Medical bills and rehabilitation costs
- Lost wages and future earning potential
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress and loss of enjoyment of life
- Property damage, including your bicycle and gear
If your loved one was tragically killed in a cycling accident, we also pursue wrongful death claims on behalf of surviving family members.
Proving Negligence in a Bicycle Accident Case
In Pennsylvania, bicycle accident cases often hinge on proving negligence. Our team will work to show that:
- The driver owed you a duty of care on the road.
- That duty was breached through negligence or recklessness.
- The driver’s actions directly caused your injuries.
- You suffered financial and physical damages as a result.
We gather crucial evidence, including police reports, traffic camera footage, witness statements, and accident reconstructions, to strengthen your case.
