Compensation Can Change Your Life After a Bike Accident
With the money our co-counsel recovers for your family, you would be able to:
- Pay for all accident-related medical bills
- Pay for repairs to your bike or other items (e.g., a helmet or a cell phone)
- Buy a new bicycle, if your old one cannot be repaired
- Continue providing for your family, even if your injuries prevent you from working
Your settlement should also include compensation for your physical and emotional distress, including pain and suffering, disabling injuries, and reduced quality of life. While money cannot erase your pain, it does force the at-fault party to acknowledge the harm they have done and provide you with additional financial stability as you heal.
Call now so The Goldwater Law Firm can get to work for you as soon as possible. We want to ensure we have plenty of time to strategize and connect you with the right attorney.
Need a Bicycle Accident Attorney in Massachusetts?
Our Co-Counsel Handles Everything for Massachusetts Clients
When you have been injured in a traffic accident, you deserve the chance to recuperate in peace. At the same time, you have a limited amount of time to begin a legal action, and waiting too long could put your monetary award in jeopardy.
This is why hiring a bike accident attorney can be such a relief for accident victims. Our law firm partners can support you by:
- Explaining your legal options and advising you about which ones might work best in your situation
- Building your casefile by interviewing witnesses, collecting documentary evidence, and reviewing photos and video footage
- Fighting for your payout by negotiating hard with the insurer or even taking the liable party to court
In addition, our legal team has access to a vast network of specialists and experts in various fields. If your case could benefit from the inclusion of a supporting statement from a doctor, an accident reconstructionist, or someone else, we can tap into that network to make your casefile as strong as possible.

How Helmet Laws in Massachusetts May Affect Your Case
Under Massachusetts law, all bicyclists who are 16 years of age or younger are legally required to wear a helmet. If your child was injured while riding a bike, it can help to show that they were wearing a helmet at the time: this will establish that they were being responsible, as opposed to the driver who struck them.
Even adult riders could benefit from highlighting their helmet use, if applicable:
- The helmet itself could serve as evidence. For example, if the helmet was damaged, this can help prove you were in a serious accident.
- Having you and eyewitnesses testify that you wore a helmet can emphasize the fact that the liable driver is responsible for all of your injuries and that you did everything possible to avoid harm.
The Goldwater Law Firm and our law firm partners understand how helmet laws and other statutes can affect your case. Trust your attorney to use every tool at their disposal to protect your rights and support your case for damages.

Frequently Asked Questions
Your first move might be to check with your auto insurance company and see if they will cover any part of your damages. Every insurer has their own rules and deadlines for filing a claim, so you will want to look into this option as soon as you can. Your lawyer can assist you with this process.
To file a claim against an at-fault party, you will first have to identify that party. Then you must send their insurance company a demand letter that explains how the negligent party hurt you and what damages you expect them to pay. Our co-counsel can manage this task as well.
Your settlement is based on your past, present, and future losses. Your lawyer can use evidence like medical records, bills, receipts, employment history, tax filings, and statements from your friends and family to establish your case’s financial value.
Finding and seeking compensation from a driver who fled the scene can be challenging, but it is not necessarily impossible. Both the police and a Massachusetts car accident lawyer can closely investigate your bike accident and do their best to both identify and locate the negligent driver.
Even if our law firm partners cannot find the driver, there may be other ways for you to recover compensation after a crash. Reach out to The Goldwater Law Firm to discuss your rights at any time.
