Bicycle Accident Attorney in Alpharetta

In Alpharetta, the other party is typically at fault in a bicycle accident if they acted negligently or violated traffic laws. This can include drivers who were speeding, not yielding the right of way, driving distractedly, or under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Also, the local government can be liable if poor road conditions caused the accident. 

That said, each case is unique. To determine the validity of your particular case and establish if you may be owed compensation, contact our bicycle accident specialists.

Such a scenario can complicate matters but shouldn't stop you from fighting for your rights. The first thing we'll do is check your own insurance policy. Some policies include uninsured motorist coverage, which can cover your damages in such situations. 

If you don't have this coverage or it's insufficient, you might consider filing a lawsuit against the at-fault party. Keep in mind, though, that collecting damages from an uninsured individual can be challenging. 

Also, your health insurance may also cover your medical expenses. Because each case is different, what works for you may not work for another party, which explains the importance of seeking legal assistance.

In a hit-and-run case, the first thing you need to do is report the incident to the police immediately. They can investigate it and try to locate the driver. If found, they can be held responsible for your injuries.

If the driver remains unidentified, you may need to turn to your own insurance policy. If you have uninsured motorist coverage, it may cover your damages. At Morgan and Morgan, our attorneys can help navigate these complex scenarios and explore any other potential avenues for compensation.
