Tens of thousands of New Yorkers opt to bike, citing reasons ranging from speed and convenience, to cost and health benefits. However biking can be hazardous to the health of the cyclist, too. Every year there are around 45,000 injuries to cyclists in New York City, and nearly 1 in 50 of those is fatal. Those who are injured or who have loved ones who are injured or killed may have only a short amount of time – 90 days – to start a suit against any government entity which may have been responsible for the action.

Representation can usually be provided at $0 cost up front and with no fee unless the lawsuit is successful.

To protect New York bicyclists, the city has implemented various laws, including requiring helmets on any cyclist under 14 years of age, and forbidding children under 1 years of age from riding on bikes. Those laws can protect against some collisions with stationary objects, but when a moving vehicle or other object causes a bicycle crash, the results can be severely harmful or fatal.

As stated above, the time frame to serve notice of a lawsuit to a government entity as stated above is 90 days – otherwise the time frame is around 2 years to begin the process of a lawsuit with an individual or other entity.

An injury lawsuit or a wrongful death suit can be filed to help provide compensation for a variety of damages, including: Hospital bills that the deceased accrued prior to passing; Funeral and burial expenses; Loss of financial support; Lost benefits and anticipated inheritances; Mental anguish; Loss of love, society, and companionship; Loss of care, guidance, and protection; and Loss of consortium.
