New York Bicycle and Pedestrian Accident Injury Lawyer
Injured While Walking or Biking? Call 212-233-2040.
In New York City, people on foot and on bicycles have the right of way. Crosswalks, bike lanes and sidewalks are supposed to give you some level of legal protection, as you navigate your way through taxis, buses, delivery trucks and automobiles. Yet every year thousands of people are injured or killed when negligent or distracted motorists ignore signs or choose to widen their driving lanes. If you have been injured in a pedestrian or bicycle accident, you have the full protection of the law on your side.
