You were following the rules — now you're dealing with injuries, medical bills, and a driver who may not care. We can help you find a local attorney today.
A bicycle accident can turn your life upside down in seconds. One moment you're riding through Katy — on your commute, your morning ride, or just getting around — and the next you're on the ground, in pain, facing an injury you never asked for. Medical bills stack up fast. You may be missing work. And the driver's insurance company is already working against you.
You shouldn't have to fight this battle alone. Insurance adjusters are trained to minimize what they pay you. Without a skilled attorney in your corner, you risk settling for far less than your case may deserve — or missing critical deadlines that could cost you everything.
In Texas, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims is generally two years from the date of the accident. If you miss this deadline, you may lose your right to pursue compensation entirely. Don't wait — contact an attorney as soon as possible to protect your rights.
Nothing upfront. Attorneys in our network work on a contingency fee basis. That means they only get paid if they recover money for you. No fee unless we win — period.
First, get to safety and call 911. Get a police report — it matters. Take photos of the scene, your bike, your injuries, and the vehicle involved. Get the driver's insurance and contact information. Collect witness names and numbers. Then seek medical attention right away, even if you feel okay. And contact an attorney before speaking with the other driver's insurance company.
Every case is different. Some settle with insurance companies in a matter of months. Others that involve disputes over fault or serious injuries may take longer — sometimes over a year. Your attorney will give you a realistic timeline based on the specifics of your situation.
Don't give a recorded statement and don't accept any settlement offer before speaking with an attorney. Insurance adjusters work for the insurance company — not for you. What you say can be used to reduce or deny your claim. Let an attorney handle all communication on your behalf.
In Katy, Texas, injury cases follow the same statewide rules — but local courts and insurance adjusters have their own patterns. The attorney we match you with knows them.
Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code §16.003 gives you exactly 2 years from the date of injury to file suit. Miss it and your case is over — there is no extension, no exception for "I didn't know I could sue." Wrongful death claims have the same 2-year window from the date of death.
Texas uses Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code §33.001. You can recover damages as long as you are 50% or less at fault. If you are 51%+ at fault, you recover nothing. Insurance companies know this rule and aggressively try to push fault percentages above 50%. An experienced attorney pushes back.
Texas caps non-economic damages in medical malpractice cases at $250,000 per defendant (Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code §74.301). There are no caps in standard auto, premises, or product cases — making attorney negotiation skill the deciding factor in your final number.
