If a driver hit you on your bike, you have rights — and the clock is already ticking.
A bicycle accident can flip your life upside down in an instant. Medical bills stack up. You can't work. Your bike is destroyed. And the driver's insurance company? They're already working to pay you as little as possible.
Cyclists have almost no protection against a two-ton vehicle. The injuries are serious — broken bones, head trauma, road rash, worse. You deserve an attorney who understands that and who will stand between you and an insurance company trying to lowball you.
In Texas, you generally have 2 years from the date of your accident to file a personal injury claim. Miss that deadline and you could lose your right to recover anything. Don't wait — contact us now.
Nothing upfront. Attorneys in the HurtMatch network work on contingency. That means no fee unless you win. You focus on recovering — your attorney handles the rest.
Call 911. Get a police report. Photograph the scene, your bike, and your injuries. Get the driver's name, insurance, and license plate. See a doctor right away — even if you feel okay. Then contact HurtMatch before you talk to any insurance company.
It depends on the severity of your injuries and whether the other side disputes liability. Some cases settle in a few months. Others take a year or more. Your matched attorney will give you a realistic timeline based on your specific situation.
Do not give a recorded statement and do not accept any offer yet. Insurance adjusters are trained to minimize payouts. Talk to an attorney first — it costs you nothing to find out where you stand.
In San Antonio, 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.
