Bronx Bicycle Accident Lawyer

Our Bronx Bicycle Accident Attorneys Look for Traffic Law Violations

To win compensation in your Bronx bike accident case, we have to prove someone else was negligent. That means establishing four elements:

• Someone owed you a duty of care (all drivers owe everyone an ordinary duty of care)
• That person failed to uphold their duty of care
• Their breach caused an accident
• You were hurt in the accident

We have years of experience building strong, successful cases. Let us do the same for you.

As we investigate, we look for evidence of a traffic violation. Both the driver and you, on your bike, had to obey the rules of the road. We’ll see if there’s any sign the driver violated the law or was careless, like by failing to look out for cyclists when making an unprotected left turn.

New York Helmet Laws

New York law doesn’t require adults to wear helmets, though it’s recommended. Children under 14 years must wear a helmet while riding a bike.

Many of our clients wonder whether it matters if they were wearing a helmet or not. It depends on the case. If you weren’t wearing a helmet while cycling around the Bronx and suffered a head injury in an accident, the at-fault driver might argue you were negligent, too. We’re prepared to deal with these claims.
