Handling Bicycle and Pedestrian Accident Claims in Northwest Florida

Drivers have a duty to share the road with cyclists and are required to take due care to watch for pedestrians. Unfortunately, drivers often find themselves distracted by their cell phones, radios and passengers. This then leads to bike accidents and pedestrian accidents. If you were hit by a car and suffered injuries in Northwest Florida, seek out the help of an experienced personal injury lawyer.

David A. Simpson of the Simpson Law Firm has spent his whole career, spanning over 35 years, representing victims of bike accidents and pedestrian accidents. He understands the specific rules of the road and how they apply to these accidents. When you need help obtaining maximum compensation for your injuries and losses, contact our Fort Walton Beach bike accident lawyer. We represent clients throughout the Florida Panhandle.

We Know How to Interpret the Laws That Apply in Your Situation

Accident laws treat cyclists like pedestrians and vehicles at the same time. Insurance laws state that cyclists are to be treated as pedestrians when it comes to making a personal injury claim. We understand how these laws work together and can skillfully craft your personal injury claim to meet all legal requirements. We also know how to apply the laws to fatal accidents in wrongful death claims.

We Can Handle Your Insurance Company So You Can Focus on Recovery

If you were injured in a bike accident or pedestrian accident, whether you were involved in a hit-and-run, a near miss, were run off the road without contact, or were cut off, we can make a claim under your own underinsured motorist coverage. If no one in your household has insurance coverage, we can pursue compensation through the insurance of the person who hit you.

Do you have questions about no-fault coverage, personal injury protection (PIP) or other insurance concerns? We understand that working with insurance adjusters can be confusing. Call us. We can answer your questions.
