Bike crash cases are different from car accidents. Cyclists are more exposed and often blamed—even when they didn’t do anything wrong. Arizona has specific bike laws, and insurance companies don’t always treat riders fairly.
Drivers must give cyclists at least three feet of space when passing. They’re also supposed to yield when turning across a bike lane. When drivers ignore these rules, they can be held responsible for the damage they cause.
A bicycle crash attorney can help prove the driver was at fault, handle the insurance company, and make sure your case is taken seriously.
Bicycle crashes happen for many reasons. Some are caused by drivers. Others involve road hazards or careless actions by other cyclists. Here are some of the most common causes:
Bike crashes can cause serious injuries, including:
These injuries often require emergency care and ongoing treatment. The Arizona Department of Health Services tracks trauma data, and cyclists regularly appear in serious injury reports across the state.
Founding Attorney
“We get to represent people who oftentimes don’t have the ability to advocate for themselves against the ‘big bad wolf,’ and there isn’t a day that starts where I’m not looking forward to helping those people fight back.”
Joe Caputo
In Arizona, bicyclists have the same rights and responsibilities as drivers. That means drivers must share the road and follow the rules—especially when passing, turning, or opening car doors.
If a driver breaks these rules and causes a crash, they can be held legally responsible. Even if you were partly at fault, Arizona’s comparative negligence law means you may still recover money. Your compensation would just be reduced by the percentage of fault assigned to you.
A lawyer can help gather evidence like traffic cam footage, crash reports from BuyCrash, and witness statements to show who caused the crash.
If the crash involved bad road design or poor signage, you might have a claim against a city or county. These cases follow special rules, and claims must be filed quickly. You can review government filing timelines through the Arizona Judicial Branch .
A crash can leave you with more than just physical pain. You may miss work, need surgery, or face permanent disabilities. Your claim can include:
If a loved one died in a bicycle crash, your family may also be able to file a wrongful death claim. An Arizona bicycle crash lawyer can help explain what your case may be worth.

We Have a Reputation For Great Results
How long do I have to file a claim?
In most cases, you have two years from the date of the crash. Claims involving a city or county may have shorter deadlines.
Do I need to wear a helmet to file a claim?
Arizona doesn’t require adults to wear helmets. Not wearing one won’t stop you from filing a claim, though it may affect your compensation.
What if I was partly at fault?
You may still recover damages. Arizona follows a comparative fault rule.
Can I sue the city for bad roads?
Yes, but the process is different and requires quick action. Learn more from the Arizona Court Rules and speak with a lawyer.
Will my case go to court?
Most cases settle without going to trial. But if needed, we’re ready to go to court and fight for you.
