McLeod & Thompson Law Firm – Local Advocates for Injured Cyclists
Cycling is a healthy and eco-friendly way to travel — but when a negligent driver fails to follow the rules, it can lead to serious injuries. At McLeod & Thompson, our Pensacola bicycle accident lawyers help injured cyclists pursue full compensation after devastating crashes.
We understand the challenges cyclists face after an accident. From navigating Florida’s no-fault laws to recovering damages from underinsured drivers, we guide you every step of the way so you can focus on healing while we handle the legal fight.
How Our Bicycle Accident
Lawyers Help You
If you’ve been hit by a car while biking, your claim can be more complex than a typical car accident. Insurance companies may try to downplay your injuries or shift the blame. That’s where we come in.
We fight back on your behalf managing communication with insurers, collecting the right evidence and building a case that demands full compensation for your injuries.
Insurance Company Negotiations
We work directly with insurance companies — both yours and the at-fault driver’s. Whether you’re relying on your PIP benefits or pursuing damages from another party, we ensure you’re not left footing the bill for someone else’s negligence.
Full Case Investigation
Our attorneys gather police reports, video evidence, medical records, and witness statements. We work with experts when needed to prove liability and the extent of your damages.
Compensation for Injured Cyclists
Bicycle accident victims often suffer serious injuries that can impact every aspect of life. We pursue compensation for:
Medical Expenses
Emergency treatment, surgeries, follow-up care, and physical therapy
Lost Income
Wages lost while recovering or reduced ability to work in the future
Pain and Suffering
For physical pain, emotional trauma and loss of enjoyment of life
Understanding Florida Bicycle & Insurance Laws
Florida law defines bicycles as vehicles, giving cyclists the same rights and responsibilities as drivers. But most people — and many insurance companies — don’t treat it that way.
If you were injured while biking, your own car insurance policy may play a role even if you weren’t in a car. Our attorneys help navigate this confusing system.
Florida’s “3-Foot Rule”
Motorists must give cyclists at least three feet of clearance when passing.
PIP Coverage Applies
If you or a family member has car insurance, that policy may provide personal injury protection (PIP) coverage — even for a bike crash.
