Fault in bicycle accidents under California law is determined by negligence. We review police reports, witness statements, and traffic camera footage. You may be able to recover economic and non-economic damages.
You may recover medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, and pain and suffering. In some cases, punitive damages are not available in California personal injury cases.
In California, you typically have two years to file a personal injury claim. Certain factors can change this deadline, so consult an attorney. If a minor is involved or a government entity is implicated, deadlines may differ.

Requests for medical records are common in these cases. We obtain consent and ensure privacy. We share information with the other side as appropriate.
