The Dr. Lawyer Law Group
Arizona Bicycle Accident Lawyers
Your injuries matter. Your story matters.
When a bicycle accident changes your life, you need someone who understands the medical consequences. We help injured cyclists explain their losses and explore their legal options.
No fees until we win.
A medical perspective
Understanding what the collision took from you.
Dr. Zaheer Shah has treated bicycle accident injuries in the emergency room, from cuts and scrapes to broken bones and more serious trauma. That experience informs his work as a personal injury attorney.
We take the time to learn about you, your treatment, and the effect of the accident on your daily life. We use that understanding to explain your injuries to insurance adjusters and juries.
How we help
Building a case around your experience.
-
Examine the accident
We investigate the circumstances, speak with witnesses, and consider whether accident reconstruction would help explain the collision.
-
Understand the injuries
We review your medical information and help document the treatment and recovery needs associated with the accident.
-
Explain the personal impact
Your account, together with information from family and friends, can show how the injuries changed your work and everyday activities.
-
Present your claim
We negotiate with insurers and are prepared to go to trial when the circumstances of your case call for it.
Bicycle accident injuries
The effects may extend beyond visible injuries.
Head and brain injuries
A head injury deserves medical attention. We work to understand the diagnosis and how symptoms affect your daily life.
Broken bones
Fractures can interrupt work, mobility, and everyday tasks. Treatment records help explain the course of recovery.
Cuts and soft tissue injuries
Lacerations, sprains, and strains can also affect your comfort and ability to move. A claim should reflect your individual experience.

Your rights on the road
A cyclist’s place on the road matters.
Arizona generally gives people riding bicycles on roadways or adjoining shoulders the rights and duties of vehicle drivers, subject to bicycle-specific rules and exceptions. Being on a bicycle does not, by itself, determine who was at fault.
The facts of the collision matter: what each person did, the road layout, traffic controls, and the available witness or photographic evidence. We examine those facts when reviewing a claim.
Arizona law: A.R.S. § 28-812.
Potential compensation
Showing how the injury changed your life.
A bicycle accident claim may include medical expenses, lost income, property damage, and the personal impact of an injury. The losses that can be recovered depend on the facts and evidence.
Documented expenses
Medical bills, treatment records, wage information, and repair or replacement costs help explain your financial losses.
Your day-to-day experience
Pain, limitations, and changes to the activities you enjoy help tell the story that bills alone cannot capture.
Filing deadlines
Give your claim the time it needs.
Arizona personal injury claims generally have a two-year limitation period after the claim accrues. Exceptions and shorter deadlines may apply, including for claims involving public entities. Ask an attorney to review the deadlines for your circumstances promptly.
Arizona law: A.R.S. § 12-542; § 12-821.01; § 12-821.
