Question:
How long is it going to take to resolve my Buffalo bicycle accident injury claim?
Answer:
A lot of people who are seriously injured in bike accidents come into see us and want to know how long their case is going to take. One of the things that we tell them is that it depends on the nature and extent of the injuries. That’s the main factor that will determine how long their case is going to take— how seriously they’ve been injured, how long they’ve been out of work, what type of treatment they get, and whether or not they need surgery.
Another thing that’s a little bit different about bicycle accidents is, very often, the injuries sustained in a bicycle accident are more serious. If you’re involved in a bicycle accident, you’re unprotected. You may have a helmet or some elbow pads on, but for the most part, your hips, pelvis, and legs are not going to be protected. As a result, the injuries are very often more devastating and much more severe. They can require surgery or multiple surgeries, and your recovery and rehab periods are much longer.
As a general rule, bicycle accidents will take a little bit more time than regular automobile accident cases. Again, it really comes down to the type of treatment that you have, how long your recovery takes, how long you’re out of work, and the nature and extent of your injuries.
