Frequently Asked Questions

Immediately following a bicycle accident, ensure your safety and seek medical attention even if injuries seem minor. Document the scene, gather contact information of witnesses, and report the incident to authorities if necessary.

Contacting a qualified attorney as soon as possible can help protect your rights and preserve evidence vital to your case. Avoid giving statements to insurance companies without legal guidance.

In Missouri, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims generally gives you five years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit. However, shorter deadlines may apply for dealing with insurance claims.

It is important to consult with an attorney promptly to ensure your claim is filed timely and all procedural requirements are met to avoid losing your right to compensation.

You may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and any property damage related to the bicycle accident.

An experienced attorney can help identify all potential damages applicable to your case and pursue maximum compensation on your behalf.

Many bicycle accident claims are resolved through negotiation or settlement without the need for a trial. However, if an insurance company refuses a fair settlement, your case may proceed to court.

We will prepare your case thoroughly and guide you through the process to relieve your stress whether your case settles or goes to trial.

Missouri follows a comparative fault rule, meaning you can recover damages even if you were partially at fault, but your compensation may be reduced proportionally based on your percentage of fault.

It is important to have legal representation to fairly evaluate your case and fight for the highest possible compensation despite shared fault.

Most personal injury attorneys, including ours, work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you only pay legal fees if you win your case.

This approach allows you to access quality legal representation without upfront costs, providing peace of mind during a difficult time.

Important evidence includes police reports, medical records, photographs of the accident scene and injuries, witness statements, and any surveillance footage or other relevant documentation.

A thorough investigation helps build a strong case to prove liability and damages, increasing the likelihood of successful compensation.
