I was hit by a car making an illegal left hand turn and I went over the car's hood but thankfully was not badly injured. The insurer was, to be polite, not in the business of paying out settlements to legitimate claims and I hired Bill to work this. He was professional empathetic (as a cyclist himself) and worked this from a number of approaches thoroughly. I highly recommend him based upon my experience and, by the way my wife's as well. Excellent job.

Bill was recommended to me when I got hit by a car while cycling in 2024. He clearly has a wealth of experience with my type of case and he took plenty of time to explain what I could expect from the process and settlement. He kept me well-updated as he negotiated with the third party insurance as well as my health insurance, and in the end I was very surprised and satisfied with the outcome. I would recommend Bill to anyone who finds themselves in my situation. His office is professional, effective, and a pleasure to work with.

Bill was helpful getting the insurance company to respond with the help that was needed. Without his work, I was not even able to get them to respond to me. He was able to guide me with what I needed to do to be successful with my claims.

Bill Shirer is an excellent attorney for injured bicyclists in need of assistance. Bill was a consummate professional at handling my accident which occurred when a SUV failed to yield making a left turn on a flashing yellow light. The accident resulted in severe facial trauma including the loss of multiple teeth and numerous facial fractures requiring several surgeries. His guidance and counsel throughout the process was invaluable. I could not be happier with the outcome of my case due to Bill's diligence and expertise.

Bill was above and beyond in every aspect of representing me. Hopefully I do not get hit by a car again. If I did, I would run straight back to Bill. Thank you Bill for everything that you did for me!

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Do bicycle accident lawyers handle cases on rural FM roads near Weatherford?

Yes. Cyclist at Law handles crashes on FM 51, FM 920, US-180, Tin Top Road, and rural Parker County roads regularly. Rural crash scenes require specialized evidence gathering — we use TxDOT design records and county maintenance logs to build strong cases. Call 972-392-1249 for a free review.

What if a dog caused my bicycle crash in Parker County?

Texas holds dog owners liable when their animal causes injury if the owner knew or should have known about the dog's dangerous tendencies. We have successfully pursued claims against Parker County property owners for cyclist injuries caused by unleashed dogs. Call 972-392-1249 to discuss your case.

Can I sue if I was hit by a farm vehicle or tractor near Weatherford?

Yes. Agricultural vehicle operators owe the same duty of care to cyclists as any other driver. If erratic maneuvers by a farm truck or tractor caused your crash — or triggered a chain-reaction collision — you may have a valid claim. Contact us at 972-392-1249 for a free consultation.

Are cyclists legally allowed to ride on US-180 and rural highways near Weatherford?

Absolutely. Texas Transportation Code §551.101 grants cyclists the right to use any public road — including state highways and high-speed FM roads — on the same basis as motor vehicle operators. A driver who harasses or strikes a cyclist believing they don't belong there faces civil liability and potentially criminal charges.

Where will my Weatherford bicycle accident lawsuit be filed?

Parker County cases are typically filed in Parker County district or county court in Weatherford. Cyclist at Law handles cases throughout Parker County — Weatherford, Aledo, Willow Park, Hudson Oaks, and Springtown. You don't need to travel to Dallas or Fort Worth for top-tier legal representation.

What hospital will treat my injuries if I'm hit on a road near Weatherford?

Texas Health Harris Methodist Hospital Weatherford is the primary acute care facility in Parker County. For severe injuries — traumatic brain injury, spinal trauma, major fractures — patients are often transferred to Level I trauma centers in Fort Worth, including John Peter Smith Hospital. We coordinate with your medical providers to ensure your injuries are properly documented for your legal claim.
