Houston Bicycle Accident Lawyer for Injured Cyclists

Standing Up for Cyclists in Houston

Cyclists face serious risks when drivers fail to share the road. A collision with a car or truck can result in devastating injuries and long-term recovery. At the Law Office of Frederick K. Wilson II, we represent victims of bicycle accidents across Houston, helping them recover compensation for medical care, lost income, and the challenges that follow a crash.

Common Causes of Bicycle Accidents

We handle cases involving:
Warning sign: a cyclist within a black triangle.

Drivers failing to yield to cyclists

Octagon sign with horizontal bar, indicating "no entry."

Unsafe passing or turning

Car accident with two people, one holding a bottle. Overhead lights.

Distracted and drunk driving

Car next to a parking meter.

Dooring accidents from parked cars

A cyclist on a bicycle icon, with a road marking on either side.

Poorly maintained bike lanes or road hazards

Each case requires careful investigation and strong evidence to prove negligence and liability.

Insurance Companies and Bicycle Claims

Insurers often attempt to blame cyclists for accidents, arguing they were “in the way” or “not visible enough.” Frederick knows what insurance companies look for in these claims because of his years of experience inside the industry. He uses that knowledge to anticipate and counter the strategies insurers use to limit compensation.

Risks for Cyclists Across Houston

From the busy streets of downtown Houston to neighborhood roads in Sugar Land, Katy, and The Woodlands, cyclists face daily dangers. Whether commuting, exercising, or riding recreationally, accidents can happen anywhere. Frederick applies his local knowledge to advocate for cyclists injured across the metro area.

FAQs

About Bicycle Accident Claims
