Pursue Full Compensation After A Motorcycle Accident
If you have been injured in a motorcycle accident, it is important to contact an attorney with specific experience in personal injury claims involving motorcycle accidents. Unlike car accidents, in which a driver may be protected by an air bag or seat belt, motorcyclists often have little or no protection in an accident.
As such, motorcycle accidents often result in more severe injuries, including fatal injuries. Family members of a fatally wounded motorcyclist may be entitled to compensation in a wrongful death claim. Motorcyclists who have suffered serious injury need a lawyer with the experience and dedication to pursue all avenues of financial recovery, including:
- Lost wages and lost earning capacity
- Existing medical bills
- Future medical bills and rehabilitative care
- Pain and suffering
- Other damages allowable by law
