Cycle Accidents Claims - Cycle Legal

At Ormrods Solicitors we provide representation for cyclists and all those who travel two on wheels.

Your choice of solicitor is one of the most important decisions you will make. Choosing the right solicitor to represent you is vital.

If you have been involved in a cycle accident then you need to make sure you choose a solicitor experienced in dealing with bicycle claims. At Ormrods, we are very used to seeing the kinds of accidents that cyclists are involved in and the types of arguments that insurers try to raise in defence of a claim.

We will be more than happy to discuss your accident, how fault can be established, what treatment you might be entitled to and what damages you might recover.

You can call to speak with Richard Darby, our specialist Cycle Injury Solicitor, by calling 01253 850777. Richard will be more than happy to discuss your accident, free of charge.

Can I claim?

Whatever the situation that led to your cycle accident, if it led to an injury, it is possible to make a claim if you can establish that a third party has been negligent. You must remember that, you will need to present the claim within 3 years of the accident happening.

Even if you think that you might be partially to blame for the accident, you can still make a claim.

Common Types of Accident

• Collisions involving another vehicle.
• Accidents caused by badly maintained road surfaces.
• Failure of bike or components
• Uncontrolled animals.
• Accidents involving sports including training events.
• Spillages on the highway
• Incidents occurring abroad

What sorts of things can I claim for ?

As a very basic rule of thumb, generally, you can claim compensation for losses you have suffered as long as they were incurred because of the accident. However, the losses must be reasonable. Some of the most common types of loses are;

• Your Injury - Pain Suffering & Loss of Amenity
• Loss of Earnings
• Damage to your bike and accessories
• Medical, Dental and Rehabilitation Treatment
• Damage to clothing
• Travel expenses

No Win - No Fee - Will I have to pay for my Solicitors Services.

You keep 100% of the compensation that is awarded to you.
