Bicycle Accident Attorney


Riding a bike is a healthy alternative to driving, combining the joys of feeling a cool breeze go through your hair with physical fitness. However, sharing the road with cars creates an increased risk of mishap, and accidents unfortunately happen. It’s important to understand road safety and the hazards cyclists face. For those who find themselves in the unfortunate situation of being in a bicycle accident, there may be a path to compensation. Navigating the legal complexities can be overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. The team at R.I.Z.Z. LAW takes pride in fighting for injured cyclists, striving to secure the compensation you rightly deserve.

Common Causes of Bicycle Accidents


Most bike accidents are preventable as the root cause is typically human error. Riding in busy streets of most metropolitan areas increases the chance of falling victim to these errors. The most common causes of bike accidents include:

  • Motorists failing to give bicyclists the right of way, especially at crossroads
  • Failing to see the cyclist prior to making a turn or changing lanes
  • Distracted while driving
  • Operating a car while intoxicated
  • Opening a car door without verifying whether a cyclist is approaching
  • Excessive speeding
  • Aggressively weaving in and out of traffic
  • Failing to maintain a safe distance when overtaking a bicycle
  • Following bicycles too closely


External factors such as weather, road construction, reduced visibility, and poorly maintained roads exacerbate the risks for cyclists navigating urban landscapes.


Fair Settlement Following a Bicycle Accident


There’s more to settling your bike accident case than simply filing a claim with an insurance company. It requires the support of a professional injury lawyer. Ensuring that you seek immediate medical attention following a bike accident not only preserves evidence and provides accurate injury documentation, but it also protects against insurance companies blaming you for the accident or attributing your injuries to other events on you.

Retaining R.I.Z.Z. LAW from the get-go ensures that you have the necessary evidence, comprehensive injury documentation, and greater odds of quickly and effectively settling your claim.


Settlements for bicycle accidents are designed to cover a range of compensations including:

  • Medical Bills
  • Pain and Suffering
  • Lost wages/income
  • Future medical bills
  • Diminished earning capacity

The compensation you receive is greatly impacted by the severity of your injuries, the liability of the parties, and other details that an experienced bicycle attorney at R.I.Z.Z. LAW can assist you with.
