Pryers Solicitors LLP claims have specialists in cycling accidents within their personal injury department. Keen cyclists themselves they bring specialist expertise to the many cycling accident claims on which they work.

In an accident on the road, cyclists are vulnerable and at great risk. They are more likely to be killed or to be seriously injured than occupants of a vehicle they may be in collision with. Whatever type of cyclist you are, leisure, commuter, competitor, mountain biker or pro, we can help you when you are injured as a result of a bike accident which was not your fault.

It's worth getting advice from us about the potential for making a claim even if you're worried that you may be partly at blame yourself. We have recently won a compensation claim for a cyclist who was knocked off his bicycle when he was riding along a pavement and a car driver pulled out of his driveway.

It is imperative that your cycling claim solicitor is aware of the particular features of processing a successful compensation claim for a cyclist. Your solicitor must be aware of the current state of the law and safety advice regarding the wearing of cycling helmets. Cycling paths and shared use road facilities are the subject of frequent redesign at local planning and engineering levels and it is important that your solicitor knows about the variety of designs along with their common problems and pitfalls. It may be that a feature of your accident is highway design or a highway defect and our cycling claims solicitors can advise you about this and we have access to qualified professionals who can assist with technical engineering issues where necessary.

We keep abreast of developments in the cycling world and can advise you on compensation claims if there is a defect on your bike which you believe caused or contributed to your accident.

It is all too often the case that bicycle accident claims are handled by solicitors who don't have access to the latest developments in cycling claims and this can result in poorer settlements for accident victims.
