Bicycle accidents can cause severe injuries, permanent disabilities, or even loss of life. If you or a loved one has suffered a Bicycle Accident, you may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
At FGC Attorneys, we have a team of experienced attorneys, especially in personal injury cases, who are ready to help you navigate the process of getting the compensation you deserve. Our attorneys have a deep understanding of the laws surrounding personal injury cases like Bicycle Accidents for our Clients in Florida, Colorado, and Texas.
Insurance in Florida, Colorado & Texas
Florida is a no-fault state when it comes to automobile accidents. A bicyclist could have PIP insurance coverage if they’re a Florida driver. This means if a Bicyclist with PIP Insurance is involved in a Bicycle Accident with serious injuries, the Bicyclist’s PIP Insurance may cover medical costs before claims are filed under an at-fault driver’s policy. A Bicyclist who does not have PIP Insurance does need to file claims under an at-fault driver’s insurance.
Colorado & Texas are at-fault states when it comes to automobile accidents which simplifies the claims process. An at-fault drivers insurance policy will cover the medical expenses of a seriously injured bicyclist. However, this means establishing fault is critical in these cases to avoid paying medical bills out-of-pocket.
Minors are not held to the same standard as adults, which changes the way fault is determined. Minors are typically held to a lower standard than adults, which doesn’t give them immunity but may shift fault. Additionally, in Florida, if a minor is involved in a Bicycle Accident, the minor could be covered under their parent’s PIP Insurance. Having the right attorney representing you is important, at FGC Attorneys we often represent clients with personal injury cases, even involving minors.
Steps to Seeking Compensation from a Bicycle Accident
Seek Medical Attention: Your health and safety should be your top priority. Seek medical attention as soon as possible after the accident, even if you do not feel any pain or discomfort immediately. Some injuries may take time to manifest, and prompt medical attention can prevent further damage.
Report the Accident: Report the accident to the police and your insurance company. Document any conversations with the police or insurance adjusters and take photos of the accident scene and any vehicle damage.
Contact an Attorney: A personal injury Attorney with experience in personal injury will help you navigate the legal process. Your attorney can help you investigate the accident, gather evidence, and negotiate with insurance companies to ensure you receive just compensation for your injuries.
File a Claim: Your attorney will help you file any claims with your own, or other insurance companies. This claim will reflect the details of the accident, your injuries, and the compensation you’re seeking.
Litigate if Necessary: If an insurance company does not agree to a fair settlement, your attorney will file a lawsuit on your behalf and represent you in court.

FGC did an excellent job representing me in my Lemon Law claim involving my 2025 Range Rover SV. The entire process was quick and smooth, and their negotiation was strong. They were able to recover essentially all of my money, minus the mileage deduction, and even secured reimbursement for the PPF wrap, which alone was worth about $9,000. Very pleased with the representation and the outcome. Highly recommend.
