How Bressman Law Proves That Someone Else Is Liable
It can be complicated to prove you faced losses and that someone else should pay you—that’s where our team comes in.
Our team will gather evidence to prove that these four elements were true of your case:
- Someone owed you a duty of care
- They neglected that duty
- Your injuries resulted
- You now have injury-related expenses and other losses
We can gather strong evidence through medical records, police records, witness statements, local traffic camera footage, and more. Whether you were hit while exiting McCarthy Park or while riding home after doing errands on 5th Street, our team will search out evidence that proves you were harmed.
With this evidence in hand, we will fight for the full amount of compensation you deserve.
We Will Handle the Common Complications of a Bicycle Accident Case
One of the other reasons you may benefit from our help is that we will manage all of the challenges in your case.
With bicycle accident cases, the liable party’s representatives may try to lower their own responsibility for the accident and reduce your payout by claiming:
- You were negligent in some way (i.e., you weren’t wearing a helmet or other safety gear)
- Your injuries are actually milder than you state in your claim
- Your damages were not as extensive as you claim

Get Emergency Care and All Necessary Treatment
You likely already sought emergency care to address the initial injuries following your crash. However, if you have moderate or significant injuries, you should follow all your doctors’ orders and keep getting care.
If your doctor tells you to take certain medications or attend follow-up appointments, do so. By getting all the medical care you need, you will take important steps for your health. This can document that:
- There is a link between the accident and your injuries
- Your injuries were significant or even catastrophic
- Your injuries may prevent you from working
- You may need future medical care
Having this documentation gives the other party less room to dispute your case.
Avoid Accepting Low Settlement Offers
You may receive a quick settlement offer soon after the crash. Keep in mind that such offers may not reflect the true cost of your past and future losses.
For instance, a fair settlement offer should include the cost of any future medical care you may need. After all, you shouldn’t have to pay out of pocket for the costs of an injury someone else caused.
Our team can evaluate your settlement offers to be sure you’re receiving what you deserve. In the meantime, avoid taking an offer too soon and signing away your right to seek additional compensation.
