We’ve renewed our partnership with Fletchers Solicitors, giving Yellow Jersey customers continued access to specialist legal support after an eligible cycling incident.
Every Yellow Jersey cycle insurance policy includes £100k of legal cover as standard (subject to the terms, conditions and exclusions of your policy). It’s one of those benefits you hope you’ll never need, but it’s reassuring to know it’s there if you do.
Specialist legal support for cyclists
Fletchers are one of the UK’s leading personal injury law firms, with a specialist team dedicated to helping cyclists, motorcyclists and scooter riders.
They’re also the sole legal partner for Cycling UK members, so supporting riders is what they do every day. Their team understands that after a cycling incident it’s not just about the injury – it can also mean a damaged bike, ruined kit, time off work, treatment costs and weeks without riding.
And because plenty of the team are cyclists themselves, they know how much your bike really means to you.
Keep 100% of your compensation
If you make an eligible claim through Fletchers using your Yellow Jersey policy, it’s handled on a No Win, No Fee basis, with no success fee.
So, if your claim is successful, you keep 100% of your compensation.
Some firms deduct up to 25% as a success fee, so this could make a significant difference to the amount you receive.
What Fletchers can help with
Fletchers can help with claims following:
-Road traffic collisions
-Pothole or highway defect incidents
-Defective bike or product liability claims
They can also help recover the cost of injuries, bike repairs or replacement, damaged clothing and accessories, along with other losses linked to the incident.
Where appropriate, they may also be able to arrange early rehabilitation and interim payments to help cover treatment costs or get you back on the road sooner.
Support for all types of riders
Whether you commute, race, ride at weekends or use your bike for work, Fletchers’ specialist team can guide you through the legal process.
They also have dedicated teams for serious injury cases, including brain and spinal injuries, as well as specialists who deal with serious cycling incidents that happen overseas.
