NYC Bicycle Accident Lawyer

From careless drivers to unsafe road conditions, bicycle accidents can happen in an instant. We know how to hold the responsible parties accountable.

Injured while riding in NYC?

New York cycling should feel empowering, not overwhelming. If you were hit while biking through Lower Manhattan, along the Kent Ave bike lanes in Williamsburg, down the cobblestones of DUMBO, or past the Brooklyn Heights Promenade, Mason Law PLLC is here to help. Our NYC bicycle accident lawyer represents riders struck in intersections near the Williamsburg Bridge approaches, on crowded FDR/FiDi corridors by Bowling Green and Wall Street, and on busy Bedford Ave. We offer calm, thorough representation with boutique access and big-case experience so you can focus on healing while we manage the legal road ahead. When a driver’s negligence turns a commute into a crisis, we can coordinate care, document losses, and—when needed—litigate aggressively.

Common bicycle crash scenarios in New York

• Driver negligence (failure to yield, dooring, left/right hooks): Left-turn cutoffs at Canal St, right-hook turns from Broadway into narrow side streets, or dooring on commercial blocks in Tribeca are classic NYC dangers.
• Bike lane conflicts (double-parking, rideshare/taxi intrusions): From Kent Ave to Jay St, bike lanes can disappear under double-parked vans or sudden rideshare pickups, forcing risky merges
• Commercial vehicles (delivery trucks near BQE/Atlantic Ave): Freight and box trucks crowd Atlantic Ave and BQE feeders; wide turns and blind spots put cyclists at risk
• Roadway hazards (potholes, construction debris, steel plates): Steel plates near Brooklyn Bridge ramps, utility cuts around Fulton Center, or debris by construction sites in DUMBO can all trigger crashes.
  

We routinely help riders injured near the Williamsburg Bridge paths, along Kent Ave and Bedford Ave, on the DUMBO waterfront, and across FiDi routes toward South Ferry and Battery Park. For Brooklyn claims, we file and appear in Kings County and meet clients locally or via Zoom.

Frequent cyclist injuries

• Orthopedic injuries (fractures, shoulder/hip): Clavicle, wrist, and hip fractures are common after hard pavement impacts
• Head & brain trauma (concussion/TBI): Even with a helmet, concussions can disrupt work, mood, and sleep.
• Spine & soft-tissue (disc, whiplash): Neck and back injuries may surface days after a crash.
• Scarring & dental (facial trauma, tooth damage): Road rash, lacerations, and chipped teeth often require specialist care.
  

Fault, insurance & next steps

• Understanding no-fault/PIP when a car is involved: If a motor vehicle was part of the crash, New York no-fault may cover immediate medical treatment regardless of fault.
• Steps after a crash: Call 911, seek medical care, photograph bikes/vehicles/scene, gather witness info, and file a report. Then contact an attorney before speaking to insurers.
• Time limits & evidence preservation: Quick action helps secure video from nearby storefronts, MTA cameras, and building lobbies—footage that often disappears fast.
