What to Do After a Bicycle Accident in Georgia

Taking the right steps immediately after a bicycle accident can protect both your health and your claim.

1. Seek Medical Attention

Even if you feel fine, concussions and internal injuries can be hidden. Get evaluated and keep all medical records.

2. Call 911 and File a Report

Police documentation provides crucial evidence for your claim.

3. Gather Evidence

• Take photos of your bike, the vehicle, road conditions, and your injuries.
• Collect witness information.
• Note any traffic or security cameras nearby.

4. Don’t Speak to Insurance Companies Alone

Insurance adjusters may try to reduce your payout or shift blame. Talk to Neil Kopitsky before giving any statements.

Types of Bicycle Accidents We Handle

We have extensive experience with all types of bicycle accident cases, including:

• Vehicle collisions with cyclists
• Hit-and-run crashes
• “Dooring” accidents (car doors opening into cyclists)
• Distracted or reckless driver crashes
• Drunk driving incidents
• Bike lane and intersection accidents
• Road hazard or defective bike part claims

No matter how your accident happened, we are here to help.

Common Bicycle Accident Injuries

Unlike drivers, cyclists lack physical protection, making injuries far more severe than in car accidents. Some of the most common injuries we see in bicycle crash cases include:

• Head Injuries and Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBIs)
• Spinal Cord Injuries and Paralysis
• Broken Bones and Fractures
• Lacerations and Road Rash
• Internal Organ Damage
• Soft Tissue Injuries
• Permanent Disfigurement or Disability

If you or a loved one has suffered injuries in a bicycle crash, seek medical treatment immediately—then contact us for legal support.

Who is Liable for a Bicycle Accident in Georgia?

Georgia is an at-fault state, meaning the person (or entity) responsible must pay damages. Depending on your case, liable parties may include:

• Negligent drivers
• Government entities (unsafe roads)
• Bicycle or vehicle manufacturers (defective parts)
• Property owners (hazardous conditions)

Georgia’s Modified Comparative Negligence Rule (O.C.G.A. § 51-12-33):
If you are less than 50% at fault, you can still recover damages—though your award will be reduced by your percentage of fault.

‍

How Much Compensation Can You Recover After a Bicycle Accident?

Our goal is to secure full and fair compensation for every client. This may include:

• Emergency and ongoing medical care
• Surgeries, rehabilitation, and therapy
• Lost wages and loss of earning capacity
• Pain and suffering (physical and emotional)
• Permanent disability or scarring
• Wrongful death damages (in fatal accidents)

We fight aggressively to ensure insurance companies don’t shortchange you.
