Bicycle Accident Lawyer in New York

Injured by a negligent driver?

Bicycle riding has become more popular in recent years due to the health benefits and the ability to get through heavy traffic easily. Many bicyclists are involved in riding as a competitive sport, a recreational pastime, for transportation, as exercise, a lifestyle or use a bicycle as a delivery vehicle. Cyclists sharing the road with cars, trucks and other vehicles run the risk of serious injury every day. Even the slightest collision at relatively slow speeds can lead to severe or catastrophic physical injury or death.

There are frequently secondary impacts in which the bicyclist is run over after the impact, making the situation even more treacherous.
