Deerfield Beach, Florida is home to one of the most beautiful beaches in the area and plays host to a number of fun events, including an annual Renaissance Festival as well as summer beach concerts every year. Known for its mild climate, Deerfield Beach is the perfect place to try water recreation or to head outdoors to one of the area's many parks and green spaces.
The Flaxman Law Group has been working with Deerfield Beach bicycle accident and personal injury victims for years. The legal team at the Flaxman Law Group know that each year Deerfield Beach residents and visitors are injured in serious Deerfield Beach traffic accidents, including bicycle accidents. Unfortunately, despite the many parks and green spaces, not all motorists are prepared to share the road with bicyclists.
Since bicyclists are protected only by a helmet, the injuries that they sustain in an accident with a car are often devastating and life-altering. In many cases, a car will hit the head or the chest of a bicyclist, causing serious and potentially fatal injuries to the abdominal and head area. In many Deerfield Beach bicycle accidents, the bicyclist is thrown onto the road in the impact, which can cause serious brain injuries.
Sustaining a serious Deerfield Beach brain injury or spinal cord injury in a bicycle accident can lead to a lifetime of pain, limited mobility, and reduced earning potential. In addition, patients who sustain these types of long-term injuries often face substantial medical costs as well as secondary costs which are simply not covered by most car insurance and health insurance carriers. Many Deerfield Beach bicycle accident survivors who have sustained serious injuries need to pay for emergency medical care, follow-up appointments, medication, physical therapy, rehabilitation, property damage, and other expenses. Many survivors face weeks or months of lost income and may need to pay for transportation to and from doctor appointments. Some patients also need to make their homes and cars accessible to accommodate their injuries. For families who lose a loved one to a Deerfield Beach bicycle accident, there are funeral expenses as well as final medical bills to pay. If the loved one was an income earner, the family may lose a substantial amount of potential income as well.
It's a serious problem, especially since one of the leading causes of bankruptcy in the United States happens to be unexpected medical costs. Patients who do not find other ways to secure the financial resources they need after a Deerfield Beach bicycle accident could find themselves in financial distress.
