Low Desert Bicycle Accident Attorney
Cycling is known to be one of the most complete cardiovascular workout you can give your body. Usually, the impact on your joints and body in general are minimal as well (compared to other cardio exercises like running). Cycling is one of the most popular ways to exercise in the world and is very popular in the Low Desert area.
Unfortunately, due to the negligence of some operators of automobiles, cycling can be hazardous. Many drivers simply don’t pay attention to what is on the street ahead of or around them. Automobiles can be very dangerous to a person riding a bicycle considering all of the distractions such as cell-phones, radios, kids yelling in the rear seat that many drivers have to deal with. Although the automobile gives substantial safety to its driver, a bike doesn’t provide safety to its rider. Because of this, serious injuries and death can happen because of an automobile-bicycle accident. That is why it is so important to have an experienced bicycle accident attorney on your side.

Motorcycle riders, and the injuries they receive caused by an accident, are unique for many different reasons. Due to a lack of protection between riders, the road, and other vehicles, motorcyclists often suffer very serious injuries during accidents.

Motorcycles are vulnerable to a unique set of risks on the road, meaning even the most knowledgeable riders can crash. Motorcycle accidents can occur because of several factors, such as:
- Construction zones

Low Desert Pedestrian Accident Attorney
When a vehicle hits a pedestrian, the injuries can be very severe. Severe spinal, head, neck,paralysis, broken bones, or loss of a limb may all happen to pedestrians when they are struck by vehicles.
Many times, the driver of the vehicle, or their insurance company, will try to shift the blame for the accident onto the pedestrian. Police often claim that the pedestrian was not inside the crosswalk when they arrive at the scene, as the pedestrian has fallen outside the crosswalk area. Insurance adjusters will many times affix the blame on the pedestrian, saying that the pedestrian should have noticed the car coming and got out of the way. Often it is harder to get an insurance company to pay for the injury to a pedestrian than it is to pay for the injury to a person inside a vehicle.

If you desire to sue for an injury that occurred at a business location, you must show that the business was legally at fault.
Slip and fall injuries may occur in a variety of ways. All business establishments can be sued for slips, falls, and collisions. The owners of a business can be sued because of poor hiring, supervision, or training of employees. Each state has its own rules that determine the standards of care that can apply in any personal injury case involving a business.
Courts know that businesses can’t prevent every slip and fall accident from happening. They require that businesses use the same amount of care as a reasonably prudent person would. This means guarding against foreseeable problems and taking reasonable precautions to prevent accidents. You can recover damages for most types of personal injury only if you can prove that the business failed in these duties.
