Attorney for Bicycle, Pedestrian Accident Cases
When a 3,000-pound car runs into a bicyclist or pedestrian, there is no contest. The biker or walker is going to be seriously injured - if he or she survives at all.
Every year, motor vehicles injure and kill cyclists and pedestrians throughout central Texas. If you have been injured, or if a member of your family suffered a wrongful death in a bicycle or pedestrian accident, please contact an Austin accident lawyer at Ross Law Group in Austin, Texas, today.
Winning Cases for Injured Cyclists
Bicyclists have a legal right to share the road with automobiles. Yet, as any serious cyclist will tell you, drivers frequently put bikers at risk. Sometimes drivers are distracted and claim they don't see the cyclist. Other times, they purposefully try to run the biker off the road.
Motorists complain that bicyclists fail to follow the rules of the road. However, a study by the League of American Bicyclists found that the motorist is at fault in 60% of car-bike collision while cyclists were responsible for 17% of the accidents.
Our firm won a $1.5 million settlement on behalf of an injured bicyclist who, according to the police report, was responsible for the accident. We retained an accident reconstructionist who is an expert in bicycle/vehicle accidents, who showed our client did not run a stop sign, as others assumed. We will go the extra mile to get to uncover the truth in your case, too.
Legal Assistance for Pedestrian Accident Victims
A pedestrian is injured by a motor vehicle every 8 minutes, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Pedestrians shouldn't have to risk their lives just to cross the street. Yet, motorists killed 4,881 pedestrians in the U.S. in 2005.
At Ross Law Group, a Texas personal injury lawyer will help bicycle and pedestrian accident victims recover financial compensation for pain and suffering, lost wages, medical expenses and property damage.
