Personal Injury Lawyers in Fresno

Bicycle accidents in California put thousands of people in the hospital with life-changing injuries. In many cases, victims are left with broken bones or they endure brain injuries that cause them overwhelming pain and suffering. Many injured bicyclists require hospitalization and must spend months going back and forth to various medical appointments. 

Although there are several treatment options available for bicycle accident victims, they come at an extraordinary cost. Many people are simply unable to afford the costs of care, which forces them to go without the assistance they need to recover. In some cases, victims can work with a bicycle accident attorney in Fresno in the aftermath of their accidents to make sure they are in the best position possible to recover.

Seeking legal guidance from a qualified team of attorneys can help to ensure you are able to move forward and get the justice and financial compensation you need and deserve from the person responsible.

Accidents involving bicycles claim the lives of hundreds of people every year while thousands more are left to endure overwhelming pain and suffering from injuries.

Bicycle riders are extremely vulnerable during accidents, which significantly increases their odds of sustaining broken bones, brain injuries, and debilitating spinal cord injuries that demand extensive and costly medical treatment. As if that wasn’t bad enough, injured cyclists are often forced out of work for several months or even years as they recover.
