Motorcycle Accidents
Compensation For a Motorcycle Crash
A law-abiding motorcyclists who is badly injured by a negligent
driver does not always win sympathy. The general public has a
somewhat negative attitude toward motorcyclist, thinking of them as
reckless as a motorcyclist splits lanes when the rest of the
freeway is grinding to a halt. Stereotypes about "bikers" can
cloud the truth, including the perceptions of insurance adjusters,
jury members, witnesses and even police officers investigating a
motorcycle accident.
We work hard to establish the facts about who really caused the
accident, and to secure full compensation for your injuries. Our office has a
solid record of verdicts and settlements in all types of motor
vehicle accidents, including motorcycle accidents. Contact us today
if you or a family member was seriously injured as the operator or
passenger on a motorcycle.
Proving What Happened
More so than other accidents, it may be necessary to prove fault
in a motorcycle accident. The driver who runs into the
motorcyclist usually says the biker was speeding or otherwise
reckless. But a reconstruction of the crash and witness testimony
often reveals that the car driver’s error was the true cause of the
accident. Common motorcycle accident fact scenarios include:
- A driver turning directly in front of a motorcyclist
- A driver cutting off a motorcyclist
- Entering traffic from a driveway or parking spot
- A driver's failure to yield at an intersection or running a
stop sign or red light
- A driver's inattention while driving past a motorcyclist
- A driver's failure to look both ways when resuming travel
after stopping at a stop
sign
- A driver impaired by drugs or alcohol
Maximizing Compensation
It is obvious that a motorcyclist in an accident is likely to
sustain a serious injury. Statistically, motorcycle accidents
account for a high number of catastrophic injures and death. We have
recovered compensation for permanent or catastrophic injuries as
well as severe fractures, neck and back injuries, disfigurement and
severe "road rash." Our goal is to recover full compensation
for your injuries, medical bills, lost wages, future care or rehabilitation, lasting
disability and pain and suffering.
