Who’s Liable in a Bicycle Accident?

Drivers have a legal duty to watch for cyclists and share the road safely. When they don’t, they can be held liable for the harm they cause.

We’ll investigate to determine liability, which could involve:


  • A car or truck driver
  • A commercial delivery company
  • A rideshare driver (Uber or Lyft)
  • A property owner if unsafe pavement or obstacles were involved
  • A government agency responsible for road conditions


We’ll gather police reports, witness statements, traffic camera footage & more to build a strong case.

You may be able to recover compensation for:

  • Medical bills
  • Physical therapy & rehabilitation
  • Lost income or time away from work
  • Pain & suffering
  • Reduced quality of life
  • Damage to your bike or gear
  • Future medical needs


We’ll focus on the full picture—how the crash impacted your health, finances & daily life—and fight to get you every dollar you’re owed.

What to Do After a Bicycle Accident

After a crash, take these steps if you’re able:


  • Call the police and make sure a report is filed

Frequently Asked Question – Bicycle Accidents in NY

  • What if the driver fled the scene?

    You may still have options through uninsured motorist coverage or state compensation programs. We can help you pursue them.

  • Do I need a lawyer if the insurance company already contacted me?

    Yes. Insurers often try to get you to settle quickly and cheaply. We’ll make sure you’re not taken advantage of.

  • Can I sue if I wasn’t wearing a helmet?

    Yes. While helmet use can be a factor in your case, it doesn’t automatically prevent you from recovering damages.
