Insurance companies tend to look for ways to blame the motorcyclist when they are involved in an accident. An experienced lawyer will gather all the evidence necessary to prove the other party’s fault. This includes:
Because of their experience in dealing with insurance companies, a motorcycle accident attorney will protect you from their tactics and knows how to negotiate to get the fair amount of compensation you are owed. They will also be prepared to represent you in court if that’s what it takes.
Many different situations can lead to a severe motorcycle accident, but when it is a driver of a car’s fault, they most commonly involve:
In some accidents, a third party may be liable. For example, a motorcycle or parts manufacturer if a defective bike or part caused the accident, or a government agency if a poorly maintained road caused the collision.
Compensation can be obtained in a motorcycle accident lawsuit in the form of “damages,” which are meant to reimburse a victim for their losses. There are many types of damages available, including:
Medical Expenses
Current and future medical costs, including hospitalizations, surgeries, doctor visits, rehabilitation, and any other necessary medical care.
Lost Wages
Current and future lost income while you recover. If you cannot return to work or are forced into a different line of work, you may be able to claim diminished earning capacity.
Pain and Suffering
Compensation for physical and psychological pain caused, including emotional distress.
Disability
If you suffered a permanent disability as a result of the crash.
Property Damage
Repairs to or replacement costs for your motorcycle.
Wrongful Death
Unfortunately, motorcycle accidents commonly lead to fatalities. Surviving family members can pursue a claim for compensation when another party is at fault.
If you or someone you love has suffered considerable harm in a motorcycle accident, we will help you prove another party’s liability. Call (844) 223-2271 to schedule a free consultation today.
