Senft Injury Advocates were life savers for me after experiencing a serious accident on the highway during rush hour traffic. My car was rear-ended and I received back injuries. Everyone I dealt with at Senft Legal were excellent advocates in helping me navigate through a very complex, difficult case. Katie responded immediately whenever I had questions. Jack got me the best settlement possible in my case. I highly recommend this firm! They are knowledgeable, responsive and capable.

Reach A Lawyer

In Ohio, if you’re injured in a bicycle accident and it wasn’t your fault, the at-fault driver’s insurance is responsible for covering your medical expenses. If you have health insurance or uninsured motorist (UM) coverage, it may help cover your medical expenses initially, until the liable party’s insurance provides compensation. An Ohio bike accident lawyer can help you navigate the claims process and fight to receive the compensation you deserve.

Yes, you can receive compensation for your bicycle and personal items that were damaged in the accident. In Ohio, compensation typically comes from the at-fault driver’s insurance. If the driver is uninsured or their policy doesn’t cover the full cost of your losses, you may be able to use your homeowners or renters insurance to cover the damaged items, depending on your policy.

Right hook accidents, where a vehicle turns right into the path of a cyclist, are often the driver’s fault. Drivers are required to check for cyclists and yield the right of way before making a turn. However, if the cyclist’s actions contributed to the accident, fault may be shared. Ohio follows a modified comparative negligence rule, meaning your compensation can be reduced based on your percentage of fault. For example, if the total compensation for your injuries is $60,000 and you are found 25% at fault due to riding outside the bike lane, your compensation would be reduced by 25%, leaving you with $45,000.

Yes, you can still file a claim if the driver fled the scene. If you have uninsured motorist (UM) coverage on your auto insurance policy, it can help cover medical bills, lost wages, and other injury related expenses. If you do not have UM coverage, you may be eligible for assistance through Ohio's Crime Victims Compensation Program. This program helps cover accident-related expenses for victims.

Our Ohio bike accident lawyers operate on a contingency fee basis, meaning you don’t pay anything upfront. Our fee is a percentage of your settlement or court award, usually between 33% and 40%, depending on the case’s complexity. To initiate the claims process, contact us for a free consultation.

Settling a bicycle accident claim can vary widely depending on the extent of injuries, the case's complexity, on-going treatments, and any disputes over liability. Straightforward cases may be resolved within months, while more challenging cases or those involving court proceedings can take a year or longer.
