Bicycle, Scooter & E-Bike Injuries
The insurer's first move is to blame the rider.
Every carrier runs the same playbook against anyone on two wheels. You were not in the bike lane. You did not have a light. You were going too fast. You should have anticipated the turn. In three jurisdictions that still apply contributory negligence, that playbook is not just noise — if any of it lands, the claim is over.
We answer it with the record: the citation the driver received, the independent witness, the roadway geometry, the physics of the impact.
Two results
$515,000. Cyclist hit by a driver making an illegal U-turn. The at-fault driver carried $25,000 in coverage. We built the rest of the recovery from our own client's underinsured coverage and litigated the insurer's coverage defenses to get it.
$500,000. Skateboarder struck by a driver making an illegal U-turn across a double yellow line. Fractured pelvis and femur, surgery the next day, and a second operation months later to remove the hardware. Resolved before suit.
