Bicycle Accident Lawsuits and Bike Collision Settlements in Washington
It is no surprise that cycling is a popular activity in Washington State. With miles of trails, temperate bike season weather, and spectacular scenery around Seattle, Kirkland, Bellevue, Redmond and other cities, cycling is popular not only as a hobby but as a means of transportation for many Washington State residents. In fact, bicycle commuting has increased 75% in the last 10 years. Organizations like the Cascade Bicycle Club and Bicycle Alliance of Washington work hard to promote bike riding for health, recreation, and as a solution to increasing commuter traffic on area roads.
While an increase in bicycle popularity is a boon for cyclists in the form of improved trails and amenities and more organizations lobbying for cyclists' rights, there have also been problems. More cyclists on the road invariably result in more accidents, even as Washington motorists become more accustomed to sharing the road with commuters on two wheels.

Let us deal with stingy insurance company adjusters
Whether you have to negotiate with your insurance company adjuster or the adjuster for the person who hit you, you could be in for a rough ride. Adjusters are notorious for wooing injured bike accident victims with kindness and sympathy, only to later dig in their heels when it comes time to talk about serious compensation for your injuries. While adjusters may argue that they are just doing their job - saving the insurance company as much money as possible - it really isn't fair to injured victims, and that is where we can help.
If you have been seriously injured in a Washington State bicycle accident and are seeking an attorney with real experience fighting for the rights of cyclists, then look no further. Please contact us at Scott McDonald and Associates today and find out how we can help you secure fair compensation for your injuries and suffering.
