Injured While Walking Or Biking In Nebraska? We Are Here to Help You Get Justice.
Last updated on August 25, 2025
Nebraska law understands that being hit by a car while walking or riding a bike can result in devastating injuries that change lives forever. That is why the state provides specific protections for vulnerable road users.
At Monzón, Guerra & Chipman, Attorneys At Law, we take on the insurance companies and negligent drivers who try to avoid responsibility. Our experienced team serves injured pedestrians and cyclists throughout Nebraska. Our bilingual attorneys understand the unique challenges these cases present and how to secure the compensation you deserve while you focus on healing.
Common Injuries In Bicycle And Pedestrian Accidents
When a vehicle strikes an unprotected person, the resulting injuries often require extensive medical care:
- Traumatic brain injuries requiring lifetime care
- Spinal cord damage leading to paralysis
- Multiple fractures requiring surgical intervention
- Internal organ damage needing emergency treatment
- Severe road rash resulting in permanent scarring
Following a bike accident, victims often face substantial medical bills while unable to work. The physical recovery journey can be lengthy, and some injuries may never fully heal. Although Nebraska law allows accident victims to handle their own claims, this approach often results in significantly reduced compensation amounts and missed deadlines that can permanently bar recovery.
What Is The Available Compensation After Being Struck?
Nebraska law allows victims to recover damages for:
- Past and future medical expenses
- Lost wages and reduced earning capacity
- Physical pain and emotional suffering
- Property damage to bicycles or belongings
- Rehabilitation costs and adaptive equipment
As bike accident victims, your claim value depends on numerous factors, including injury severity, insurance coverage and the responsible party’s assets. Insurance companies frequently attempt to minimize settlements by questioning injury severity or shifting blame to the victim. Our Nebraska trial lawyers counter these tactics with a thorough investigation and strategic negotiation built on years of litigation experience.

- A comprehensive investigation of accident scenes
