Bicycle Accident Lawyer

Insurance companies are not on your side; their goal is to settle for as little as possible. A skilled bicycle accident lawyer can gather evidence, calculate the full scope of your damages, negotiate aggressively, and take your case to court if needed. Without experienced representation, you may not even realize the value of what you're leaving on the table.

At the Law Offices of Comras & Comras, we’ve seen firsthand how insurers delay, deny, or diminish valid claims—especially when the victim is unrepresented. From the moment you call us, we take over the communication, handle all legal deadlines, and begin building a compelling case to secure what you’re truly owed. Our job is to fight for you so you can focus on getting better.

There is no “standard” settlement amount because every case is unique. Factors such as the severity of your injuries, liability, medical costs, lost income, and long-term impact all play a role in determining case value. Some Florida bike accident claims resolve for tens of thousands of dollars, while others—especially those involving permanent injuries or death—can result in six-figure recoveries or more.

At Comras & Comras, we don’t deal in averages—we deal in outcomes. We’ll evaluate your case thoroughly and provide an honest estimate of what you may be entitled to. Our goal is to recover every dollar possible, including compensation for future medical needs, pain and suffering, and loss of earning potential. The sooner you reach out, the sooner we can get started.

Hit-and-run bicycle accidents are sadly common in Florida. While it may feel like justice is out of reach, you still have legal options. If the at-fault driver fled the scene, we can pursue compensation through your uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage (UM/UIM), or investigate the accident through traffic cameras, witnesses, or law enforcement reports to help identify the driver.

At Comras & Comras, we’ve handled numerous hit-and-run cases and know how to navigate the added complexity they bring. Whether you were hit by a speeding car, a rideshare driver, or a commercial vehicle, we leave no stone unturned in tracking down coverage sources and pursuing every available path to compensation. Don't give up—call us and let us investigate on your behalf.

Yes, you can. Florida law does not require adults over the age of 16 to wear a helmet while riding a bicycle. Although helmet use is always encouraged for safety, not wearing one does not automatically disqualify you from seeking compensation for your injuries. However, insurance companies may try to argue that your injuries were worsened by not wearing a helmet.

Our legal team knows how to challenge those arguments. We focus on the negligence of the at-fault driver, not your protective gear. Your right to recovery depends on their behavior—not whether you had a helmet on. We've successfully helped many cyclists in similar situations recover significant compensation.

Under Florida law, most personal injury claims— including bicycle accident cases—must be filed within two years from the date of the incident. This is known as the statute of limitations. If you miss this deadline, you may lose your right to recover any compensation at all. However, some exceptions may apply based on the circumstances of your case.

To avoid jeopardizing your claim, it's important to contact an attorney as soon as possible. At Comras & Comras, we take immediate action to preserve evidence, interview witnesses, and ensure no deadlines are missed. Waiting too long can weaken your case. We recommend calling us immediately after your accident for a free consultation and case review.
