Timing matters after a California bicycle accident, and Chris Kreeger explains how soon to contact an attorney. If you were seriously hurt, his advice is to reach out right away, ideally to a lawyer who also rides. The other driver will likely try to blame you, so you need someone who understands what cyclists face.
Why Injured California Cyclists Should Call a Lawyer Right Away
If you’ve been seriously injured in a bicycle accident, you should immediately reach out to an experienced attorney, preferably one who is also a cyclist. That way, the attorney knows not only what you’ve been through, but what you’re up against more importantly. Remember, the other driver is probably going to turn around and blame you so you need an experienced cyclist and attorney on your side.
