A bike or moped ride along the beautiful roads of Cape Cod, the South Shore, or the South Coast should be enjoyable. But when a careless driver isn’t paying attention, that ride can end in devastating injuries. Cyclists and moped riders are extremely vulnerable, and the aftermath of a collision can be overwhelming.

Our commitment to protecting cyclists and moped riders is reflected in the outcomes we’ve achieved for our clients:
Drivers have a legal duty to safely share the road with bicycles and mopeds. Unfortunately, many fail to do so. In Massachusetts, cyclists have the same rights and responsibilities as operators of motor vehicles. This means you have a right to be on the road, and drivers must give you adequate space.
Proving a driver’s negligence is key to a successful claim. This can involve showing they were distracted, failed to yield the right-of-way, or violated a traffic law. Our firm is skilled at building fact-based cases that demonstrate a driver’s failure to operate their vehicle with care, leading to your injuries.
Most of these accidents are entirely preventable and caused by driver negligence. Common scenarios include:

Navigating insurance claims can be complex and intimidating. In Massachusetts, you’ll likely work with Personal Injury Protection (PIP) benefits, which cover initial medical bills and lost wages no matter who was at fault. However, obtaining complete compensation for your damages often means proving the other party’s negligence.
Insurance adjusters might appear friendly, but their job is to protect the company’s interests. They may ask you for a recorded statement or offer a quick, insufficient settlement. Having an experienced local attorney ensures your interests are protected and that you’re not pressured into accepting less compensation than you deserve.

Because injuries are often severe and proving fault can be complex, it is highly recommended to speak with an experienced attorney. We can protect you from insurance company tactics and ensure your rights are upheld.

Yes. Bicyclists and moped riders have the right to use most public roads, not just bike lanes. As long as you were following traffic laws, you are generally entitled to pursue a claim against a negligent driver.
If you were the victim of a hit-and-run, you may be able to recover compensation through your own auto insurance policy’s Uninsured Motorist (UM) coverage or the Massachusetts “PIP” benefits. We can help you explore all available options.
