Bicycle and Pedestrian Accidents

Palm Beach County Bicycle and Pedestrian Accident Lawyer

Pedestrians and bicyclists generally exercise caution when crossing streets, entering and exiting parking lots, and in other areas where there may be cars. When a pedestrian or bike rider is injured by an inattentive driver, he or she may face injuries that could have been prevented. The Law Offices of Rafael J. Roca, P.A., located in West Palm Beach, represents people who have been injured in pedestrian and bicycle accidents. Attorney Roca thoroughly analyzes the accident, uncovering the responsible parties to seek fair compensation for injured people. Since 1988, Attorney Roca has helped injured people and their families seek compensation and justice.

Severe Injuries Even at Low Speeds

Although a car may be traveling at a low speed when it hits a pedestrian or bicyclist, the injuries sustained in the accident can still be severe. As the volume of cars on the road increases, so does the number of injuries to bike riders and walkers. Our firm has responded to this increase through our effective legal advocacy and efforts to hold negligent people accountable. We represent adults and children who have been hurt on foot or while riding a bike in areas such as:

• Crosswalks
• Sidewalks
• Entrances to commercial buildings
• Exits from commercial buildings
• Parks
• Beaches
• School zones
• Parking lots
• Residential streets
• Parking ramps

Pedestrians and bicyclists are often not perceived as a threat to people in cars and trucks. As a result, they may not be given the proper respect or room to maneuver. If you or a loved one has been injured while walking or riding a bicycle, contact our firm through this site or by calling 1-877-9MISHAP to learn how we can help.
