Rebuilding After a Traumatic Bicycle Crash
Bicycle accidents often result in catastrophic, life-altering injuries because riders have virtually zero protection against multi-ton passenger vehicles. Right now, you are likely dealing with physical trauma, severe pain, and an overwhelming wave of sudden medical expenses.
Insurance companies frequently try to blame the cyclist to protect their own corporate profits, but you should never have to fight aggressive adjusters while trying to heal. Our dedicated legal team is ready to step in as your shield, taking over the legal stress so you can take a deep breath and focus entirely on your physical recovery.
You Pay Absolutely Nothing Unless We Win Your Case
When your medical bills are piling up and your injuries keep you from returning to work, worrying about upfront attorney fees is the last thing you need. That is why Craig Swapp & Associates operates on a strict contingency fee model—meaning you owe us absolutely nothing out-of-pocket unless we successfully secure a financial settlement check on your behalf.
We manage every single aspect of your bicycle accident recovery process so you don’t have to:
- Stop the harassment: We take over all direct communication, stopping insurance companies from harassing you or pressuring you into recorded statements.
- Secure maximum compensation: We aggressively pursue damages for your immediate medical treatments, future rehabilitation, specialized physical therapy, and lost income.
- Cover your equipment losses: We fight to ensure the insurance company fully replaces or reimburses you for your bicycle, helmet, and expensive riding gear.
- Hold careless drivers accountable: We target distracted, speeding, or reckless drivers who refused to share the road safely and failed to look out for cyclists.
Protecting Washington Cyclists Under Strict State Laws
Washington laws present unique challenges for injured cyclists that require immediate, strategic legal intervention:
- The 3-year deadline: Under RCW 4.16.080, Washington enforces a strict three-year window from the exact date of your crash to file a personal injury claim. Insurance adjusters will deliberately delay your case under the guise of “helping” you, hoping you run out the clock so your right to compensation is permanently wiped out.
- The cyclist blame game: Because bicycles are legally treated as vehicles with the same rights and duties on the road, defense attorneys will aggressively weaponize Washington’s pure comparative fault system. They will look for any excuse—such as lane positioning, lighting, or signaling—to shift the blame onto you and drastically lower your final payout.
Taking fast legal action allows our team to immediately secure helmet cam footage, local business surveillance videos, and fresh witness statements before critical digital and physical evidence vanishes.
