What to do after a motorcycle accident

Motorcycle accidents typically result in serious injuries for the motorcycle driver.  If you have been involved in an accident there are some steps you can take to give you the best chance of getting the money you deserve to get your life back in order.

Your health is your first priority.  If you have been injured or think you have been injured, it is best that you are assessed by medical personnel. Call 911 and report the accident.  It is important for your case that the extent of your injuries are documented.  Injuries sustained in the accident may result in short, long or permanent disabilities that may determine your settlement.

If you are able, gather as much information as possible.  That includes the other driver(s) information and insurance, accident location, road and weather conditions and witnesses.  Take photos if possible.  The police officer on scene should provide you with a case number you will need to obtain the crash report.

It is always a good idea to talk to an experienced car accident attorney after a serious accident involving injuries.  You may have sustained short, long or permanent disabilities.  Insurance companies will work hard to give you the least amount of money to settle your case.  An attorney will make sure all your loss is figured into the settlement amount.  Studies have shown that people represented by attorney typically get up to 40% more settlement amounts than those that handle the case themselves.

Common Motorcycle Accident Injuries

Although wearing a helmet reduces the risk of head injuries by 69% and the rate of fatalities by 37%, head and neck injuries are very common in accidents involving a motorcycle.  Most accidents end up with the motorcycle driver being thrown from the motorcycle which can result in severe abrasions, fractures and other blunt force trauma.  Additionally, brain and organ damage typically results from the external blunt trauma.  Anyone involved in a motorcycle accident should seek medical attention.

Frequently Asked Auto Accidents Questions

If you have been involved in a serious motorcycle accident with injuries or property damage, it is important that you consult an experienced personal injury to help you with your case.  An insurance company will work to devalue your case and give you the smallest settlement possible.  There may be many issues that have not been taken into consideration in determining the amount of compensation.

Unlike other lawyers, personal injury attorneys work on a contingency basis which means that they take no money upfront and only get paid if they win your case and you receive a settlement.  That seems like a win-win situation but even with contingency fee arrangements, the personal injury attorney you choose can have a big impact on the amount of money you get.  Choose a local attorney that knows the local laws and experienced in car accidents with a track record of winning cases.

There are many factors that a personal injury attorney uses to determine the amount of compensation that a client should receive for an accident.  Each accident is different with mitigating factors and determining fault.  A good personal injury attorney will gather information to best help the client get the most compensation for his/her client.
