One hazard peculiar to cyclists is debris on the road. Mud, manure or other debris that has been deposited on to the road by flotsam of farm machinery, or the jetsam of animals moving from one field to another can lead to debris. Coming across these unexpected lumps can cause cyclists to skid, be dismounted and suffer from nasty injuries and cycle damage. This is even more so when riding at speed on open lanes.
Bicycle Claims
We are cyclists ourselves and we believe that cyclists have the right to be safe on the roads and we strive to raise awareness but sometimes accidents can happen.
We have decades of experience in winning accident claims for injured cyclists and we understand that being knocked off your bike can be very traumatic. We can provide a full service from getting your bike repaired and recovering the repair costs, funding private physio and scans recovered from the other side, assisting with obtaining a replacement bike if required, recovering your loss of earnings and other expenses such as travel and medication costs as a result of the accident.
Cyclists are vulnerable road users and often accident victims of cars not seeing them or cutting them up. If you get the registration of the vehicle who collided with you great but often people do not realise they can also claim for example if your bike is damaged by a pothole or you are involved in a hit and run and you didn’t get the registration of the car or hit by an uninsured car, you can still claim in all these scenarios.
If you are knocked off your bike then get in touch with us and we will assist you through the process.
Personal injury is a complex area of law. You need people who are experienced and aware of issues that may arise in order to get the outcome you are after. Our solicitors are specially trained to help you understand the claims process and that means talking to you in language you understand, not lawyer jargon.
It is our job to do the hard work so that you don’t have to. We’re willing to take on the stress to make the whole process as hassle-free as possible for you. We understand that such processes can seem complicated and even intimidating, but with an expert team such as TWC you, there is nothing to worry about.
Hit and run claims: not to worry if you did you not get the registration or any details of the vehicle that knocked you off your bike, we can still claim for you from the Motor Insurers’ Bureau (MIB). This is a special body created to ensure that those who are injured because of somebody else’s fault still have the chance to claim compensation.
Uninsured driver claims: not to worry if the vehicle that knocked you off your bike was uninsured, we can still claim for you from the Motor Insurers’ Bureau (MIB). This is a special body created to ensure that those who are injured because of somebody else’s fault still have the chance to claim compensation.
Pothole and poor road condition claims: bike accident claims resulting from road quality issues require the involvement of local authorities, such as city or town councils, which we are used to dealing with regularly. Its good practice to report it to the council as soon as possible and also to take pictures of the defective road e.g pothole or grid which caused the incident.
Transfer from another solicitors firm of claims company: if you are not happy with your current solicitor , you can get a second opinion from us and transfer the case. We pride ourselves on our knowledge , attention to detail, speediness and being contactable and if you aren’t receiving this treatment then speak to us.
Fuel spill accidents: If you come off your bike as a result of a fuel spill, then you can make a bike accident claim if we can show that another road users themselves or the manufacturer or garage could have prevented the spill happening(e.g. inadequate repairs, faulty vehicle, overfilling tank or failing to secure cap). Its often hard to see fuel on the road and especially if you are travelling at speed.
