When to consult with a bicycle accident lawyer
When to consult with a bicycle accident lawyer:
If you have suffered injuries in a Nassau bicycle accident it is a good idea to consult with a bicycle accident attorney as soon as possible. Hiring an attorney early on in the process will help protect your legal rights, ensure your medical bills and lost wages are paid and give you an advantage building a strong personal injury case. An early investigation will also help preserve key evidence in your case.
Important deadlines to know for your bicycle accident case:
Medical bills and lost wages are paid through the no-fault insurance carrier of the vehicle you were in an accident with. All no-fault insurance carriers require a no-fault application be filed within thirty days. Failing to do so may result in denial of your no-fault benefits and may make you personally responsible for the bills.
