Bicycle Accidents
Tampa Bicycle Accident Lawyer
You May Be Entitled to a Financial Settlement After a Bike Accident
In 2009, there were more than 4,700 bicycle accidents in Florida, according to the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles. Sadly, the number did not decrease much from 2008, showing that bicyclists remain at great danger on Florida roads.
Victims of bicycle accidents have legal rights, just like victims of car accidents. Many bicycle accident survivors may not realize that they may be able to secure financial compensation for injuries, lost wages due to time off work, and pain and suffering.
If you or a loved one has been injured in a bike accident, consult an experienced Tampa bicycle accident attorney at Winters & Yonker P.A. to learn about your rights and your legal options. We offer free consultations with no obligation.
Take Action to Protect Your Legal Rights and Your Health After a Bicycle Accident
It is important to get thorough medical care after a bicycle accident, and it is important to continue following up with your doctor if new pains or symptoms arise.
It is also important to seek legal counsel as soon as possible after an accident and before accepting any settlement offer from an insurance company. An experienced personal injury lawyer, like those at Winters & Yonker P.A. in Tampa, will analyze the accident and your injuries and help you decide what a truly fair settlement would look like.
Without assistance from a knowledgeable attorney, you may be pressured into accepting a too-low settlement offer or you may be led to believe you have no rights to compensation at all.
