File a Claim and Documentation

A bicycle accident lawyer in The Woodlands, TX can manage your case by engaging with the at-fault party or insurance company, handling important documents, and representing you through the claims process.

Provide Evidence of Liability

  • Reports from law enforcement
  • Accounts from bystanders who witnessed the event
  • Footage caught by video or photographic evidence
  • Medical treatment documents, such as bills or test results

Speak With Medical Experts About Your Injuries

File a Claim With the Insurance Company

For most cases, we will file your claim with the at-fault party’s insurance company. The insurance provider will deliberate the claim, and either offer a settlement or dismiss your claim.

Pursue Recovery for Your Damages in Court

If we are unable to reach a settlement with the insurance company, we may file a lawsuit to pursue recovery in court.

Seeking Recovery for Your Expenses and Losses

You may experience a wide range of expenses and losses after your accident. Your damages may include physical injuries, the emotional effects of the accident, and financial losses.

It is impossible to estimate the value of your damages, as many variables affect case value. Some of the losses we may account for when pursuing a recovery include:

Hospital Bills and Expenses

You may be able to recover your medical expenses including hospitalization, extended care, medication, surgeries, and doctor visits.

Lost Pay and Benefits

Your recovery may account for lost wages and loss of future earning capacity, including loss of health care and retirement benefits.

Pain and Suffering

Your claim may also include non-economic damages such as emotional turmoil, pain and suffering over a long period, loss of consortium, or loss of previous living standards.

All Personal Injury Claims in Texas Have a Two-Year Deadline

The state of Texas gives claimants two years to file a personal injury case, including bicycle accident cases, under Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code, Title 2 § 16.033.

If you do not pursue recovery within the two year-deadline, you may not have a legal right to recover damages for your injuries.
