Bicyclists face a number of risks when on the road – even after taking proper safety precautions, drivers of motor vehicles often do not see bicycle riders. Unfortunately, when compared against the full weight and heft of a motor vehicle, a bicyclist has few defenses and will most likely be severely injured if struck by an automobile several times their size, or even killed—according to the Virginia DMV, there are on average over 500 bicyclist injuries and 12 bicyclist fatalities in crashes each year in Virginia.
However, while bicyclists are more likely to get hurt in an accident, most of those accidents are not the bike rider’s fault. The attorneys and staff at Fishwick & Associates PLC are committed to supporting Virginia’s injured. We go above and beyond to represent you, using our more than 85 years of combined experience to get you the best settlement possible. Our team is ready to stand up for you.

Bicyclists are vigilant about their safety, but they fall victim to:
Unfortunately, bicyclists are at more risk for injury because of the exposure to the elements and lack of safety features when accidents occur. Even in the best cases, the result can be devastating, requiring multiple reconstructive surgeries, months of rehabilitation, physical therapy, and lifelong medical care. In the worst case, your loved one may die or never be able to live independently again because a negligent driver struck them while they were riding a bicycle.
