Victims of bicycle accidents and auto/pedestrian accidents have one common factor - the injuries sustained are often much worse than in a car-on-car collision. At a minimum we see severe back strains or soft tissue injuries requiring lengthy chiropractic treatment or physical therapy. More common is broken bones,road rash, facial scarring, spinal cord injury, brain injury and even wrongful death. Attorney Dallas D. Norton represents pedestrians and bicyclists suffering from all injuries. Through wrongful death litigation we also represent the families who have lost a loved in a tragic collision with a vehicle. Some cases don't actually involve contact with a vehicle but simply are caused by a miss-and-run driver who may have been unaware that he or she even caused a wreck. Funds may be available to victims even if the driver cannot be located.
If you need advice in the aftermath of an accident involving a bicycle or pedestrian, contact an experienced attorney at our law office. We offer free consultations, and we only collect an attorney's fee if we are successful in resolving your damages claim. You may also submit a question directly to an attorney through the Ask A Lawyer box below.
Proudly representing bicyclists on the streets and bike paths in Greater Denver,
Boulder and all of Colorado
Serving a clientele throughout the State of Colorado, our law firm and attorneys can help bicycle and pedestrian accident victims. In addition to recovering the maximum amount for your personal injuries, our attorneys will assist in the day-to-day problems that arise. We will assist you with submission of medical claims, applying for restitution and seeking victim's compensation. We can help you get access to medical care if your own insurer refuses coverage or if you have no health insurance. This can be done through liens with medical providers or through pre-paid medical services. If you were hit by a drunk or intoxicated driver, you might be eligible for victim's compensation funds or even criminal restitution. We can also help you deal with lost wages, lost earnings or lost earning capacity caused by a lengthy inability to work.
You should know your rights - - we can teach them to you.
One of the most common excuses from negligent drivers is that they did not see the bicycle or pedestrian. In reality, it is usually the driver's fault for not looking well enough. Under Colorado law it is negligent for a driver to not see what was open and obvious, had he or she looked.
Since injuries are so severe in bicycle and pedestrian collisions there is often not enough money to pay for all of the medical bills let alone the lost income from a prolonged work absence due to injuries or treatment. Many people do not realize that their own automobile insurance may provide additional coverage for personal injuries sustained in these types of accidents. Further, there may be additional coverage available through insurance policies belonging to resident relatives of either the negligent driver or even the victim. It is often necessary to consult with an attorney to have your right to these additional coverage explained. To speak with attorney Dallas D. Norton, either contact us or submit a question on the Ask A Lawyer form to the left. If you choose to set up a free meeting you will meet with a licensed attorney rather than a paralegal, legal assistant or other sales person.
