FAQ Colorado Bicycle Accident Law
Q: When should I call a lawyer after a bike accident?
A: Call Alan Jimenez at 303-698-1774 as soon as possible.
Q: Does insurance cover my bike accident?
A: Yes, your car insurance covers, plus any other policies such as health and uninsured motorist.
Q: Should I talk to the insurance adjuster for the other driver?
A: I'ts not a good idea to speak to an insurance representative until you get legal advise. Feel free to email me first.
Q: Who pays my legal fees and costs?
A: You do not pay legal fees to our office up front, because we wait to be paid at the time of settlement.
Q: Do all bicycle accident cases settle?
A: Most cases settle for various reasons, however they must be properly presented to the insurance company.
Q: Who pays my costs of bringing a claim?
A: Our office is able to pay the initial costs of gathering evidence and these costs are paid from settlement funds at the end.
Q: Which lawyers handle bike accidents claims on contingency?
A: Every lawyer is different, but I always charge a percentage of the settlement so you do not pay any thing out of pocket.
Q: Can I get a settlement for a non contact accident?
A: Yes. I would need to investigate if you have Uninsured Motorist insurance coverage under your auto policy.
Q: What is a good bike accident case?
A: You would need to call me so I can analyze your case, but you need to document your injuries and the other driver needs to be at fault.
