What Clients Say About Working with Jacoby & Meyers
New York City Bicycle Accident Lawyers FAQ
Possibly. New York law does not automatically bar an injured cyclist from recovering compensation simply because they were not wearing a helmet. However, insurers may still try to argue that helmet use affected the severity of injuries.
Children injured in bicycle accidents may have the right to pursue compensation through a parent or guardian. These cases often involve unique legal and procedural considerations, especially when serious injuries are involved.
You should seek medical attention immediately, report the crash to police, document the scene if possible, and avoid speaking with insurance adjusters before consulting a lawyer.
Possibly. Drivers who illegally enter bike lanes, make unsafe turns, or fail to yield to cyclists may be held responsible for resulting injuries.
Delivery companies, rideshare drivers, commercial insurers, or other parties may share liability depending on how the crash occurred and whether the driver was working at the time.
