1. After a Bicycle Accident, Whom Should I Talk to and What Should I Say?

If you were hit by a vehicle, the driver's insurance company will contact you soon after the accident. Don't discuss your bicyle accident with the insurance company representative. These insurance representatives are called adjusters. They're not bad people, but their job is to get as much information about your accident or your injuries and then try to use it against you. That's why it's a good idea to talk to a Minnesota bicycle accident attorney before you talk to any insurance company.

3. What is My Minnesota Bicycle Accident Case Worth?

For Minnesota bicycle accident attorneys to determine the value of your case, they have to look at many factors. The most important factor is the severity of your injuries. Information about the severity of your injuries usually comes from your doctor in a medical report in which he or she comments on your injuries.

Another important factor is how your injuries affect you. For example, a broken finger to most people is not that severe an injury. If you happen to be a concert pianist, however, a broken finger can be a terrible loss. Thus, it's important that we know a lot about you and how your injuries have impacted your life. Other factors include the amount of your medical bills, the amount of your wage loss, whether you have any scars, what impact your injuries will have on your future earning capacity and a host of other issues.

Every case is different, and it depends on the skill and experience of your lawyer to know what is fair compensation for your losses. Because bicycle accidents often involve traumatic brain injuries, it is important to hire Minnesota bicycle accident attorneys with extensive experience in this area.
