The circumstances of every case are different, and it is important to be diligent about getting appropriate legal representation before taking any action that may adversely affect your case.
Pennsylvania Bike Accident Injuries
If you are the unfortunate victim of a bicycle accident, and your injuries allow, follow these guidelines:
- Seek prompt medical treatment for your injuries.
- Wait for the police to respond to the accident scene.
- File an official report at the scene with police and ask for a copy of the report.
- You should not attempt to negotiate with the at-fault driver.
- If an accident report is written, make sure that it’s accurate.
- Get the driver’s name and contact info, as well as the names and contact info of any witnesses.
- Leave your bike and other damaged property in the same state it was after the accident. Take photos of all your damaged equipment and accessories.
- Do not communicate with the insurance company before consulting with a lawyer.
