Bicycle Accident Lawyer Granada Hills, CA

Bicyclists deserve to share the road with everyone else. But unfortunately, sometimes they get hit by drivers who should have been paying more attention. If you or a loved one was recently seriously in this way, then please reach out to our Granada Hills, CA bicycle accident lawyer for help. When a driver hits a bicyclist, the latter always loses the most. A person on a bike cannot withstand forces that are larger and more powerful than them. In the event of a collision, the bicyclist tends to suffer the most severe injuries while the driver of the vehicle can walk away relatively unscathed. Our team at the Law Offices of Edward Y. Lee can help you get compensation from the responsible driver for your injury care, financial loss, property damages, and more. To learn more about how much compensation you could receive, contact us today. 

How We Can Help

If you suffered serious injury and financial loss because of the bike accident, then we can help you seek repayment for your losses. You may have medical bills that need to be paid, a bike that requires repairs or replacement, loss of earnings from missing work, and inconveniences that affect your day to day routine. When meeting with us about your case, let us know to the extent that the accident has negatively impacted your health and daily living. We can use this information and supportive evidence to seek monetary restitution from the driver at fault. Now is the time to have a lawyer help you so you can focus on your recovery. 

Statute Of Limitations

Every state has a statute of limitations for personal injury cases, such as bike accidents. This means you only have a set period of time from the date of the accident to take legal action. As our dedicated bicycle accident attorney explains, for the state of California, victims generally have two years to pursue compensation. If there were delayed injuries, then it is two years from the date that these were reasonably discovered. If the person was of minor age (under 18), then the statute of limitations is two years from their 18th birthday. This is why we strongly advise getting help as soon as possible so you do not wait too long, risk crucial evidence being lost, and then lose your chance at compensation altogether.
