Our Law Firm Partners Are Ready to Advocate for You
You may qualify for a variety of damages after an accident, but there is no guarantee that the insurance company will make it easy for you to get that money. You might encounter any number of obstacles:
- The liable party might deny responsibility.
- The insurance company might undervalue your claim.
- The insurer might get aggressive when pushing you to accept an inadequate settlement or even blame you for the collision.
Rather than confront these challenges alone, let a bike accident attorney champion your rights. Our law firm partners can work hard to:
- Collect enough evidence to prove negligence and damages
- Negotiate for the settlement you need
- Represent you in civil court as necessary
- Ensure all paperwork is filed and received on time
- Explain your rights to you and provide advice whenever you want it
Dealing with a personal injury of this magnitude is one of the hardest challenges you are likely to ever face. Call The Goldwater Law Firm today so you do not have to go it alone.

Compensation Can Help You Get Your Life Back
Our team wants you to recover all of the money you need to rebuild your life. This may include:
- Medical costs, including all past and future treatment you need to address your accident injuries
- Loss of income or earning capacity, if your injuries keep you from working or earning what you did before
- Property damage, especially if your bike was destroyed or in any way damaged
- Pain and suffering, including all physical and emotional distress caused by your injuries or by the traumatic nature of the crash
- Reduced quality of life, if you can no longer participate in the full range of activities, both necessary and enjoyable, that you did before
- Loss of consortium, if your relationship with your family has suffered because of the crash
Your right to seek these and other damages only lasts for two years from the accident date. Once this right expires, it could be much harder for you to get the money your family is depending on. The sooner you reach out to us, the sooner our co-counsel can start developing a strategy to secure this money.
How to Prove Your Personal Injury Case
Page 47 of a report issued by the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) indicates that the total number of bicycle accidents in the state hit a five-year high in 2024. These accidents are frequently preventable and happen as a result of drivers who:
- Do not watch out for bicyclists as they make turns or open car doors
- Drive too fast for the conditions
- Ignore traffic signs or signals
- Allow themselves to get distracted (e.g., by texting and driving)

Frequently Asked Questions
The injuries that bicyclists sustain may depend on what protective gear they were wearing. Cyclists without helmets are especially vulnerable to head injuries. Those who do wear helmets could still suffer other serious injuries, including bone fractures, road rash, and internal damage.
There is no “average” or “normal” settlement amount that all injured cyclists should aim to recover. Instead, your attorney can determine what to ask for in your case by assessing all of your losses. Your final settlement or award should cover all accident-related damages.
The majority of personal injury cases settle out of court. Your lawyer will, if possible, negotiate a pretrial settlement with the insurance company so you can avoid the courtroom.
It is rare that an insurer will want to go through the stress and hassle of a trial. However, if that is the best or only way for you to recover fair compensation, your legal representative will not hesitate to present your case to a judge and jury.
