The Complexities of Bicycle Accident Claims
Bicycle accidents can involve multiple layers of complexity, from determining liability to calculating damages. Whether you were injured by a negligent driver or faulty road conditions, proving fault and obtaining adequate compensation can be challenging. Understanding Indiana’s bicycle laws and personal injury statutes is crucial, as they directly affect your ability to file a successful claim. Our team is skilled at identifying all the factors that play into these claims and helping you build a strong case.
Statute of Limitations
In Indiana, there is a strict time limit within which you must file a personal injury lawsuit, known as the statute of limitations. Under Indiana Code § 34-11-2-4, victims of bicycle accidents generally have 2 years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit. Failing to file within this period can result in your case being dismissed, preventing you from recovering any compensation. It's essential to act promptly to ensure your rights are protected.
Proving Negligence
To succeed in a bicycle accident claim, you must establish that the other party was negligent. This involves proving 4 key elements: duty of care, breach of duty, causation, and damages. Indiana follows a modified comparative fault system, which means that your compensation may be reduced if you are found to be partially at fault for the accident. Our team works diligently to gather evidence, such as eyewitness testimony, traffic camera footage, and accident reports, to prove the negligence of the responsible party and maximize your compensation.
Types of Compensation You Could Receive
If you've been injured in a bicycle accident in Greenwood, IN, you may be entitled to various types of compensation, including:
This includes current and future medical costs for treatment, rehabilitation, and therapy.
If your injuries prevent you from working, you can seek compensation for lost income and future earning capacity.
These damages compensate for the physical pain and emotional distress caused by the accident.
The type and amount of compensation available to you will depend on the details of your case. Your attorney will be able to estimate how much your case could be worth after they obtain all the information about your accident. However, they cannot guarantee any amount of money will be awarded, as that depends on whether the other party’s insurance company is willing to negotiate or what the court decides to award you if your case goes to trial.

Benefits of Working With an Attorney
It’s always better to work with an attorney to get the settlement you deserve after suffering an injury. Here’s how working with an experienced bike accident attorney can benefit you:
An attorney understands Indiana’s laws and can advise you on the best legal strategy.
Insurance companies often try to minimize settlements. A lawyer can negotiate on your behalf to secure a fair amount.
Attorneys have access to resources like accident reconstruction specialists and medical experts to help gather evidence and corroborate injuries.
With an attorney's help, you’re more likely to receive the full amount of compensation you may deserve, since they understand the law in detail and can argue that you deserve a higher settlement amount based on laws you may not know about.
Letting a professional handle the legal aspects of your case allows you to focus on recovery.
