New York Bicycle Accident Attorney

Bike Accident Lawyer New Paltz NY

Car Drivers Often Do Not Notice Bicycles

When a car crashes into a bicycle, the injuries to the bicyclist are nearly always serious. In most cases, the car driver did not notice the bicycle until the accident happened. Bicycles simply don't register to the car or truck driver as something to watch out for.

Car drivers are trying to get somewhere. They watch for other cars and trucks, but bicycles are often missed as they make driving decisions. Bicycles are small, compared to automobiles, and frequently go unnoticed. I am Dutchess County Bike crash attorney Jonathan D. Katz. I represent people who have been injured in bicycle accidents.

  • Car drivers are more likely to notice bikes with strobe lights or bikes that are traveling in groups. But in too many cases, car drivers simply do not see bicycles or do not recognize a bicyclist's right to the road.
  • You focus on getting the medical treatment you need and on healing. I will handle all issues related to a personal injury claim. I want you to have fair and just compensation for your injuries. And I want to be sure you know all your injuries before any settlement is made.
  • My law firm has the resources to investigate your bicycle accident and determine what happened and who is responsible. Early investigation will provide the most accurate information and the best results. Contact me as soon as possible.

Bicycle accidents can happen anywhere people are riding bikes — on town streets, rural roads or on highways. If a loved one has suffered a serious injury or a wrongful death, talk to an experienced attorney.

At my law firm, you will always receive personal attention. I represent clients in Ulster County, the surrounding Hudson Valley, and throughout the state of New York. Contact my New Paltz bicycle accident law offices today. Personal injury cases are always contingency based.

Upon interviewing Jonathan Katz, I decided to retain him because I was impressed with his approach to divorce: he advocated communication, conflict reduction, and efficiency, toward reducing the stress and monetary expense already inherent to any legal action.

When my case took unexpected turns, Jonathan was agile and effective in his response, even when the straightforward divorce turned into an international custody battle that went to federal court. Responsive at every turn, efficient, and wise in his counsel, Mr. Katz's legal services gave me real value for my investment.

Being a single mom, I had enough stress in my life. I had no idea how to go about protecting my self. My daughters were my priority. Jon walked me through the process. He turned a difficult time into a workable solution.

Jon's integrity towards his clients is what makes him a standout attorney. He makes it a priority to know whats important to you. You're not just a number. He is up front with you right from the start. He will not string you along just for his financial benefit. He is only willing to settle the case if thats truly what you want. Anytime I called him I received a call back from him that day. Not someone else in the office. He is an attorney that has a passion for whats important to his clients.
