Where you Injured on a Bicycle in Carlsbad, CA?

Distracted drivers who fail to notice cyclists on the road are one of the leading causes of bicycle accidents in Carlsbad. At Coastal Legal Center, we are proud to serve the Carlsbad community with comprehensive legal representation for victims of these tragic incidents.

Even with most cyclists wearing helmets, head injuries and brain injuries are common consequences of bicycle accidents. Other frequent injuries include back injuries, chest injuries, fractures, and severe road rash that can feel as painful as first-degree burns. Due to the lack of protection cyclists have compared to drivers, catastrophic injuries or even wrongful death can result, even in low-speed collisions.

This evidence allows us to build a strong case that reflects the long-term impact of the accident on your physical health, emotional well-being, and financial stability.

  • Unsafe Road Conditions: Potholes, debris, and poorly marked bike lanes can force cyclists into traffic.
