We Must Prove Negligence to Recover Compensation
Bicycle accidents and all other personal injury cases have a common denominator—the at-fault party’s negligence. Our legal team will collect evidence that proves the four legal components of negligence.
These include:
- Duty of care: The at-fault party was required to act in a reasonable fashion. For example, drivers have a responsibility to respect a cyclist’s right to the road.
- Breach of duty: The at-fault party did not act in a reasonable fashion. The driver entered the bike lane and hit a cyclist.
- Causation: The at-fault party’s actions caused your physical injuries. The cyclist suffered a traumatic brain injury and road rash.
- Damages: Your injuries had immediate and future financial consequences. The cyclist incurred medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
Our personal injury lawyers serving clients in Fort Pierce will collect evidence and interview witnesses to establish the at-fault driver’s negligence.
