If you were injured in a bicycle accident, call a Phoenix bicycle accident lawyer at (602) 258-0646 to begin your road to recovery.
Bicycle accidents in Phoenix usually involve significant injuries, including broken bones, brain injury, spinal cord injury, and scarring. This can lead to insurmountable medical bills and permanent disability from your bicycle accident. The last thing you want to deal with is cops, insurance companies, and medical bills after an accident. We understand the personal challenges you face and our experienced bike accident lawyers are here to help.
According to the U.S. Department of Transportation, for cities with populations of 500,000 or greater, three Arizona cities are among the top U.S. cities for traffic deaths of cyclists. Phoenix (3.4% of all traffic accident deaths), Tucson (6.1% of all traffic accident deaths), and Mesa (3.6% of all traffic accident deaths) made this sad list.
Our bicycle accident lawyers have years of experience representing cyclists injured in a bicycle accident in Phoenix and throughout Arizona.
If you or a loved one is injured in a bicycle accident, contact us as soon as possible. Our Phoenix bike accident lawyers will deal with the insurance companies, help you obtain the medical treatment you need, and fight for the compensation you deserve for your injuries–including compensation for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, disability, disfigurement, and loss of enjoyment of life.
Yes. Bicycle accidents frequently cause serious, life-altering injuries that lead to physical, emotional, and financial problems. It is important to hire an experienced Phoenix bicycle accident lawyer before speaking with the insurance companies. Insurance companies try to trick you into settling your bicycle accident legal claim before you know the full extent of your personal injuries and damages. Gage Mathers Law Group has a team of experienced attorneys who will fight to get you the injury compensation you deserve for your bicycle accident.
Our bicycle accident lawyer will guide you through the legal process of your personal case, including:
In Arizona, you generally have two years from the date of your bicycle accident to take legal action seeking compensation for the crash. However, your deadline to act drops to 180 days if a state or local entity is responsible for your accident. For example, if you are hit on your bicycle by a police car. There are some exceptions for minors and disabled people. We always recommend hiring an experienced lawyer early because it can take time to investigate your personal legal claim, gather evidence, review documents, interview witnesses, and consult with experts about your bicycle injuries, if needed.
Arizona allows bike accident injury victims to pursue both economic and non-economic damages.
Bicyclists have rights when out on the roads of Phoenix and everywhere in Arizona. “I did not see the bike” is not an excuse for an accident. You have the same rights as other motorists on the Phoenix roadway.
That said, bicyclists are required to follow the rules of the Phoenix road. This means that you can be found partially at fault for causing a bike accident. In Arizona this is known as “comparative fault,” meaning that your actions may have contributed to the bicycle crash and are to be compared to the fault of other car drivers in the accident. Thus, when insurance adjusters, defense lawyers, or a jury is evaluating your claim, the value will be reduced by your percentage of fault for the accident. Therefore, it is important that you have an experienced personal injury lawyer who understands all of the rights and responsibilities of bicyclists in Arizona to help advocate for you.

The vast majority of bike accidents happen at intersections, usually because a car driver does not yield to the cyclist or acknowledge their existence. Bicyclists share the roads with cars and trucks, so bicycle riders must be careful when riding on roadways. Cyclists should pay careful attention when merging, turning, or stopping. Bicycles are vulnerable to collisions with larger, faster vehicles, making long straightaways another common location for bicycle accidents.
Some of the most common causes of bike accidents on Phoenix roads are:
In a perfect world, bicycles and motor vehicles would never crash; but this is not a perfect world. Drivers often have their attention diverted or split between tasks, even when driving. Many car and truck drivers don’t even consider the possibility of bicyclists on the Phoenix roadway.
Worse yet, our Phoenix communities do a poor job of providing safe riding lanes or clear road conditions. Many areas lack proper signage. Too many areas lack adequate protection and safeguards against bicycle accidents.
If your bike accident and subsequent injuries are a result of one of the above reasons, you may be able to file a personal injury claim for your accident injuries and losses. A skilled Phoenix personal injury attorney from Gage Mathers Law Group will guide you through the claims process, thoroughly investigate your bike accident, advocate for you, and fight to get you the maximum compensation you deserve for your bicycle injuries.
Our experienced Phoenix bicycle accident lawyer handles all types of bicycle injury cases. Some bike accidents cause relatively minor injuries, like road rash and sprains, while most accidents cause catastrophic injuries like broken bones and brain injury.
Common bicycle accident injuries we handle include:

One year ago I had reason to believe that a previous medical procedure had caused a significant new health risk. I knew I needed legal advice on what my rights were and what options might exist for me to pursue a resolution. I reached out to Joe and he was immediately responsive. Not only did he provide me assistance in a timely way, he personally dropped off materials for me to review at my home. At that time, I really needed help and he was there for me.
Because of his expertise in personal injury, wrongful death, and other catastrophic injury cases, Martin is contacted by lawyers throughout the country to help them with their cases. This has led to Martin’s involvement in litigation involving high-profile celebrity defendants, large hospital systems, prominent business people, airplane crashes, pharmaceutical errors, and defective product cases.
