- 6,000 cyclists are hospitalised annually in Queensland, with most accidents involving vehicles.

Whether it’s broken bones, head injuries or other serious trauma, acting quickly to protect your rights is crucial. Our experienced team is here to guide you through the process and provide the legal support you need.
Comprehensive Support for All Types of Cycling Accidents
Cycling accidents can arise in a variety of scenarios, including:
- Dooring injuries – when a car door is opened into a cyclist’s path.
- Collisions with other road users – such as Segways, e-scooters or pedestrians.
- Race accidents – including incidents during organised cycling events.
If the accident wasn’t your fault, you could be eligible for compensation.
