Even when motorcycle riders take precautions while riding, injuries can still happen because of someone else's negligent driving. Therefore, it is always important to follow these two safety tips when riding:
Wear a Helmet: Traumatic Brain Injuries are the number one cause of Motorcycle Accident Injuries. Being sure to wear a properly fitted helmet may be the difference between injury or death.

Amount of Fault
Amount of Damage
Extent of Injuries
Amount of Insurance Coverage Available
Depending on the details of your individual accident, your motorcycle accident attorney will be able to draft a demand letter with you that will give an accurate estimate of the total amount of compensation you are entitled to.
What should I say if an insurance company contacts me?
Nothing! If you are contacted by an insurance company, do not say anything related to your case too them.
The main reason that they are contacting you is to get you to make a statement about your accident, which depending on what you say can be used against you to lower the value of your settlement.
Although you may have to speak with them eventually, you should always consult with an experienced Motorcycle Accident Attorney.
They will explain exactly what you can and cannot say to them in order to protect the value of your case.
How long will it take to get my settlement?
The length of time that it takes to settle a Motorcycle Accident injury lawsuit depends on a lot of different factors.
First, it depends on how soon after your accident you contact an attorney and they are able to begin their investigation.
Second, the seriousness of the accident and the extent of the injuries can cause the length of time to increase. A lot of the time, insurance companies will want the injured persons to finish treatment and recovering so that the medical expenses are all accounted for before they settle.
Finally, it depends on the size of the settlement and how backed up the courts are at the time. If you are willing to accept a smaller settlement, then your case can usually be resolved in a few weeks or months. If you are going after a larger settlement, it may take longer and could end up going to trial, resulting in an even longer legal process.
