Cycling Accident Claims
Immediate Action & Why You Can Claim
If you've been injured while cycling due to a negligent driver or a dangerous road defect, the consequences can be severe, ranging from fractures and head injuries to major loss of earnings. If you have suffered an injury that was not your fault, you are entitled to pursue compensation for your pain, recovery costs, and damage to your bike and equipment.
At Dorians Solicitors, we handle the complex legal fight so you can focus entirely on your recovery. We provide clear, factual advice and support through every step.

The Legal Duty: Proving Fault on the Road
Under road traffic law and the Highway Code, all road users have a duty of care, but drivers hold the highest responsibility for safety around vulnerable road users like cyclists. We help you claim where the accident was caused by:
A negligent driver failing to look, opening a door, or turning across your path.
Poorly maintained public roads (potholes, unsafe surfacing).
Car passenger 'doorings' that cause you to fall or swerve.
Crucial Evidence: Protect Your Claim
The evidence you gather immediately following an accident is vital to proving your case against the driver or local authority. We strongly advise you to:
Secure the negligent diver’s details and the vehicle make, model and registration.
Secure Witness Details
Get names and phone numbers of any witnesses immediately.
Seek Medical Help
Attend your GP or A&E immediately. Medical records linking the injury to the accident are essential for valuation.
Document Everything
Take clear photographs of the scene, road defects, and your damaged bicycle.
Keep Dashcam/Helmet Footage
Preserve any relevant video evidence, as it is often crucial for establishing liability.
