  •  ABOUT BIKE ACCIDENT CLAIMS

There are many thousands of accidents involving cyclists each year on Britain's roads.

In the vast majority of instances the accidents result from the negligence of other road users - specifically the drivers of other vehicles. Most accidents do not involve anything other than minor injuries - cyclists are a hardy bunch and tend to get used to suffering the odd scrape or fall. However, if you are a pedal cyclist or motorcyclist and have suffered personal injury in an incident that was not your fault - you may be entitled to claim compensation.

  •  WHAT TO DO AFTER A CYCLE ACCIDENT

1) Ensure that you exchange details with the other party.

2) Report the case to the police if they are not already aware of the accident. This can be of great importance if the other party does not cooperate during any claim

3) Ensure that you receive medical advice if you have suffered injuries in the cycle accident.

4) If possible - take photos of the accident scene (or ask a friend to do so) to assist with any liability dispute.

5) Obtain an estimate on your cycle damage OR find your original purchase receipt if the bike is beyond repair. A replacement cost estimate will suffice in most circumstances if the original receipt is unavailable. Cycle accidents can be very open to disputes on liability so you may need to prepare for the worst.

A good personal injury accident claim lawyer will always ensure that the best possible result is achieved.
