Keeping in Mind the Statute of Limitations

In a pedestrian or bicycle accident involving an adult, the statute of limitations is three years. This means, as a victim, you must take legal action within three years of the date of the accident. Beyond the three year mark, it is no longer possible to hold the negligent parties liable.

When children are involved in pedestrian or bicycle accidents, the story is much different. The applicable statute of limitations does not begin until a minor child reaches the age of 18. They then have until the age of 21 to contemplate litigation.

Injuries Resulting From Pedestrian and Bicycle Accidents

Pedestrians or bicyclists are simply no match for automobiles. In some cases, even proper safety equipment will fail to prevent severe and life-altering injuries.

Our firm represents both adults and children who have suffered the following types of injuries in pedestrian and bicycle accidents:

• Head, brain and spine injuries
• Paralysis
• Back injuries
• Broken bones

In some instances, pedestrian and bicycle accidents can prove to be fatal. Our firm provides survivors with aggressive, yet compassionate wrongful death representation. We are committed to obtaining justice on behalf of your lost loved one.
