Common Motorcycle and Bicycle Accidents in the Bay Area

Motorcycle and Bike Accident Attorneys

Accidents involving motorcycles and bicycles often involved specific kinds of negligence on the part of motorists. While motorcycle riders often contend with cars and trucks changing lanes without signaling or looking first, bicyclists are particularly vulnerable at intersections.

Drivers who do not slow down sufficiently or see a motorcycle rider or cyclists often claim, "they just came out of no where." As bikers and cyclists ourselves, the personal injury attorneys at Choulos Choulos & Wyle have first-hand experience of the kinds of negligence, recklessness, and inattention drivers are guilty of on the road.

With a team of investigators and medical experts, our law office knows how to expose carelessness and hold negligent motorists accountable. Contact the San Francisco bike accident attorneys at Choulos Choulos & Wyle.

Determining the Cause of a Bike Accident

Our lawyers work closely with accident reconstruction experts to investigate motorcycle and bicycle accidents to determine the real cause. Motorists usually claim they are not at fault. We investigate both the accident scene and the bikers' injuries to determine the speed the vehicle was traveling, when the driver applied their brakes - if at all - and whether or not the driver ran through a stop sign or intersection.
