Our Littleton Bike Crash Attorneys Will Investigate Your Accident’s Cause
Bicycles and cars can collide for many different reasons. To pursue compensation for your accident, our investigation will establish negligence as its cause by gathering evidence of the following elements:
- Duty: The vehicle driver owed you a legal duty of care
- Breach: The vehicle driver failed to meet their legal duty
- Causation: The link between action, accident, and injury
- Damages: The financial consequences of the accident
Some common negligence-based reasons for car accidents include:
- Dooring
- Speeding
- Failure to yield
- Distracted driving
- Intoxicated driving
We will navigate the road to financial recovery for you. Our investigation will include delving into the exact cause of your accident and collecting evidence that builds a compelling case file.
Evidence We Will Collect to Support Your Bicycle Accident Injury Claim
Since neither party’s legal or insurance representatives were present when the accident occurred, your claim relies heavily on evidence to tell the story of the collision. To support your right to financial compensation, your Littleton bike accident attorney will collect evidence such as:
- Traffic cam and smartphone footage
- Photos of your injuries and the accident scene
- Police and first responder reports
- Accident reconstruction reports
- Lay and expert witness statements
Leave evidence collection to our results-driven team. We will compile and organize your case file so you can focus on recovering.
Our Littleton Bike Accident Lawyers Will Document Your Financial Recovery
After an accident, the at-fault party’s insurance company may offer you a settlement to resolve your case quickly. We generally avoid speedy settlements to allow time for us to understand all your recoverable damages.
The compensation we will demand on your behalf may include:
- Economic damages: Known and anticipated medical bills, rehab, therapy, and assistive devices like wheelchairs and crutches; known and anticipated lost wages from all income sources and lost earning ability; property damage, destruction, and diminished value
- Non-economic damages: Temporary and permanent disfiguring and impairing injuries; physical pain and suffering and inconvenience; ongoing mental and emotional anguish and loss of enjoyment of life
- Wrongful death damages: Funeral, cremation, and burial expenses; loss of the decedent’s financial and household contributions; loss of consortium, companionship, guidance, care, and support
Our experienced attorneys will do more than document your losses. We also collect all the evidence needed—bills, receipts, estimates, etc.—to prove their value and fight for the best possible outcome for you and your family.
Let Us Take the Potential Confusion Out of Colorado’s Statute of Limitations
In general:
- Colorado’s car accident personal injury statute of limitations is three years, according to CO. Rev. Stat. § 13-80-101
- Colorado’s non-car accident personal injury and wrongful death statute of limitations is two years, according to CO. Rev. Stat. § 13-80-102
A bicycle accident can involve an injured party of any age. If the injured party is a minor, the statute of limitations changes. It can also change based on other factors.
The best way to meet the filing deadline is to let us handle it for you. Our Littleton bicycle accident attorneys will accurately interpret the statute of limitations based on the specific circumstances of your case and file your lawsuit on time.
