Riding a bike or going for a walk are considered relaxing activities that are enjoyed by most people. With these activities, however, comes the risk of an accident. Bicycle and pedestrian accidents are serious and should always be treated as such. If you or a loved one have been injured in a bicycle or pedestrian accident, contact a Long Beach personal injury attorney.
Common injuries that follow these types of accidents include:
Immediately following the accident, the police should be called to start filing a police report. Exchanging important information such as driver’s licenses and insurance should be done between the parties involved. Medical attention should then be sought for any injuries. Even if you feel fine or that you don’t have any injuries, it’s best to confirm that with medical professionals. With the adrenaline and shock from what happened running through your body, it may seem like you aren’t hurt, but you could be, and your injuries could even be internal. Any documentation from the doctor could be used in your case, such as x-rays, lab results, and blood work.
If you have been injured because of someone’s negligence you should contact a Long Beach personal injury attorney. The trusted attorneys at the Pacific Coast Injury Law Center know what you’re going through and want you to be fairly compensated. Compensation for such accidents can help pay for medical bills, rehabilitation, physical, emotional, or psychological therapy, as well as lost wages from time off work that was spent recovering.
