Bicycle Accident Attorney in South Carolina

Our Law Firm Partners Can Support You All Throughout Your Case

No matter how much you need to recover compensation, finding the time and energy to take action on your own can be extremely difficult. In addition, you have a limited time to start your case, so you cannot simply put it off until you are feeling better.

This is where our law firm partners can step in to assist you.

Your Lawyer Can Investigate Your Case Thoroughly

This may include everything from interviewing witnesses and reviewing video footage to requesting documentation from your doctor, the local police, and the at-fault party. Your lawyer’s goal is to collect and analyze as much material as possible as they build your casefile.

Your Attorney Can Negotiate for the Best Possible Outcome

A bike accident can cause serious, even life-altering injuries. The insurance company might offer you a quick settlement for these injuries, but that does not mean their offer will cover all of your current and future damages.

Protect your future by allowing a bike injury lawyer to work with the insurance company on your behalf. Our co-counsel knows how to negotiate fair settlements—and how to represent clients at trial as necessary, such as in cases where a fair settlement cannot be reached.

You Will Get Regular Updates From Your Legal Representative

You will not be left to wait and worry about what is happening with your case. When you first meet with your lawyer, discuss with them how often you would like to hear about your case. You should also feel free to contact them with any questions or other concerns in between updates. Your attorney is here to put you at ease.

How to Qualify for and Pursue Damages After a Personal Injury

In order to recover damages, you will need to show that someone else’s negligence led directly to your accident, which in turn led directly to your injuries. For example, if a driver’s failure to follow South Carolina law caused them to crash into you, this could entitle you to damages.

A South Carolina car accident lawyer from our co-counsel can fight for all of the damages you are entitled to based on losses like:

• The cost of medical care
• The cost of addressing property damage
• The loss of income and benefits
• Your physical pain and distress
• Your emotional anguish
• Your loss of independence and quality of life
• The impact of disabling injuries

It is important to ask for an amount that reflects all past, present, and likely future losses. Once your case is closed, you will not be allowed to open it again and ask for more money. This is your chance to recover all of the money you need to ensure you and your family are cared for.

When Do You Have the Right to File a Bike Accident Claim?

If someone else’s negligence caused or contributed to your accident, this is grounds for a legal action. Common examples of negligence that can lead to bike accident injuries include the following:

• A driver parks their car on the side of the road and opens the door without checking for oncoming traffic.
• A driver makes an illegal turn and hits a bike that had the right of way.
• A manufacturer knows that they have sold a faulty bike or car part but chooses not to warn customers or recall the product.

The Goldwater Law Firm understands that you are depending on the outcome of this case to support yourself and your family. It is therefore critical that you fully understand your rights and options as soon as possible. Our legal team would be happy to explain the merits of your case during a free consultation.
