Bicycle Accidents
When a crash turns your ride upside down, GOC Legal is here to guide your recovery in Oakland, CA
Cycling should be fun and freeing, but a bicycle accident can change your life in an instant. Bicyclists are more vulnerable than motorists, and crashes caused by vehicles, unsafe road conditions, or negligence can result in serious injuries.
At GOC Legal, we help cyclists understand their rights and fight for full compensation so you can focus on healing.
Why Bicycle Accidents Are Serious
Bike accidents can have severe consequences because:
- Bicyclists have minimal protection compared to drivers
- Injuries are often serious, including head trauma, spinal injuries, or major fractures
- Liability is frequently disputed by drivers, municipalities, or other parties

- Investigation: Determine fault and assess driver or municipal negligence
