Pennsylvania Bike Injury Lawyers
Philadelphia Bicycle Accident Attorneys
Silvers, Langsam & Weitzman, P.C.
Considering the cost of gasoline and auto insurance, as well as the difficulties and expense associated with parking in an urban area, it is no great surprise that bicycles are becoming more common on our urban streets. But despite their increasing prevalence, their vulnerability to careless and inattentive drivers has remained unchanged.
At the law firm of Silvers, Langsam & Weitzman, we bring more than 100 years of combined legal experience to our clients in these cases. And as a firm, one of the primary benefits we can offer you is the fact that we limit our practice to handling personal injury cases exclusively.
Important facts about bicycle accidents
Like pedestrians or passengers of cars hit by out-of-state drivers, bicyclists are deemed full-tort, regardless of whether they carry full-tort coverage on their own auto insurance or not.
However, in hit and run cases where the driver and vehicle are never identified, injured bike riders must also rely on their own auto insurance policies if they hope to collect benefits based on their uninsured and underinsured motorists' coverage. Bicyclists with no auto insurance policy of their own may still be eligible to collect benefits under the Pennsylvania Assigned Claims Plan.
Catastrophic injuries to bicyclists
Whenever an automobile or commercial vehicle hits a bike rider, catastrophic injuries and even death are likely to occur. Our attorneys have experience with developing adequate Life Care Plans for people with injuries such as head trauma, spinal cord damage, and more. We diligently prepare and research every case as if for trial and, as a result, have been very successful in helping our clients to obtain the compensation they deserve.
If we are unable to obtain a judgment or settlement in your case, you will pay no costs or attorneys' fees whatsoever.
