Knowing what lawyer deals with motorcycle accidents can be crucial when you are looking to seek justice after a crash. While most personal injury lawyers can handle motor vehicle accident claims, including motorcycle crashes, you may want to look for a lawyer who handles motorcycle accident cases.
As attorneys who have dealt with these kinds of cases, we will:
- Know the applicable motorcycle laws and regulations. While the legal issues around motorcycle accidents can be similar to car accidents, they are not necessarily the same.
- Use a number of methods to fight for fair compensation if your claim is denied or if you’re offered a low settlement. In some cases, motorcyclists can be automatically blamed for an accident. We can help you seek fair compensation.
Types of Compensation You Could Recover
According to the Insurance Information Institute (III), motorcyclists are often more likely to be injured or killed in an accident compared to other drivers. As a motorcyclist injured in a crash, your losses could be substantial.
If another road user or other negligent party caused your accident and injuries, we could help you pursue an insurance claim through the at-fault party’s coverage. If the insurer doesn’t agree to compensate you fairly, we could then proceed with a lawsuit. You could potentially seek compensation for the following as well as other damages:
Medical Expenses
You could receive compensation for all of your present and future medical costs. This can include surgeries, emergency care, hospitalizations, and other treatment costs. You can also recover costs for medical devices for recovery, such as a wheelchair or prostheses.
Lost Income
You could face a long recovery process and the prospect of never being fit for work again. However, motorcycle accident victims can often seek compensation for lost wages and the loss of expected future income.
Emotional and Physical Suffering
If you suffered significant injuries in a motorcycle accident, you could have endured considerable pain, suffering, and emotional distress. Victims could also seek compensation for their pain and suffering.
Loss of Consortium
For family members who lost a loved one in a motorcycle accident, you could be entitled to seek several forms of compensation. A spouse is often able to seek compensation for the funeral and medical expenses of their deceased loved one. A motorcycle accident lawyer can also help eligible family members file a wrongful death claim.
