Types of Damages for Bicycle Accident Claims
A bicycle accident may cause both physical and emotional injury to a victim. In addition to requiring medical care, future medical treatment, physical therapy, reconstructive surgery and occupational therapy, a victim may also require assistance with the psychological consequences of the accident or the injuries sustained in the accident. Fortunately, an insurance or personal injury claim involving a bicycle accident may cover all of the victim's damages, including:
- Medical care
- Future medical treatment, as needed
- Medical supplies and medicine
- Lost wages from missed work
- Loss of earning potential
- Property damage, to the bicycle and other personal property
- Emotional trauma
- Pain and suffering
Of course, the amount and type of damages that may be awarded in any Bakersfield bicycle accident claim may vary depending on the extent and type of injury sustained, as well as what impact the injury will have on the victim's life. A bicycle accident attorney experienced with these claims can work with economists, medical experts and other professionals to properly determine what your case may be worth.
