Most causes of motorcycle accidents can be anything from bad weather to unsafe vehicle drivers. The more common causes, however, are:
- Cars making left-hand turns — this accounts for approximately 42% of all motorcycle accidents
- Lane splitting
- Large vehicles, such as trucks and commercial vehicles, not keeping a lookout for motorcyclists
- Poor visibility
- Weather conditions
Because the cause of a motorcycle accident is so variable, it is important to hire an attorney that is experienced in this type of case. Motorcycle accident cases are not the same as the typical car accident and cannot be investigated and litigated the same way. Catastrophic injuries require extensive compensation.
Serious injuries can require months, years, even a lifetime of medical treatment. Our lawyers employ medical and economics experts to determine the future needs of injured victims including financial losses caused by disability.
Our motorcycle accident attorneys have many years of experience helping victims and their families recover both physically and financially after serious accidents. Tell us about your accident and we will do a case evaluation, call or email our office directly.
