The many parks in North Miami are perfect places to bicycle, but unfortunately the areas around these parks are also common location for North Miami traffic accidents and bicycle accidents. If you have been in a North Miami bicycle accident, you may have sustained serious injuries such as broken bones, facial injuries, spinal cord injuries, head injuries, and other serious injuries. In addition to the pain and suffering that you may feel, you may also face substantial income loss, medical bills, and secondary costs.
The first step after being in a serious North Miami bicycle accident is to seek medical care. The second step is to ensure that you understand the true cost of your injuries before you accept any insurance claim offers. In order to get help evaluating the cost of your accident, you can contact the Flaxman Law Group to set up a free initial consultation. The legal team at the Flaxman Law Group can help you understand the primary and secondary costs of your injuries. For a North Miami bicycle accident, these may include lost income, replacement costs for your bicycle and other property that has been damaged, medical costs, follow-up medical appointments, transportation costs, and more. If you need to have your home made accessible in order to accommodate your injuries or if you need rehabilitation or additional treatment, these costs will also be considered. You may find that the cost of your injuries is much higher than you had initially anticipated. It is important to have this number in mind when evaluating insurance claim offers.
Not having your injuries covered by fair settlement is a serious issue, as it can leave you tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt. Without a fair settlement, you will have to pay these costs out-of-pocket. Any costs above and beyond what the insurance pays will be your responsibility.
