When a motorcyclist in our area is injured, we take it personally. We see that injured person as a neighbor first, before wondering if he or she might become a client of Seymour Kremer Koch. Grasping the impact of the loss to a motorcycle rider and his or her family is a large part of what goes into an investigation after a crash.
Injuries caused by motorcycle accidents tend to be serious, severe or catastrophic. A human body without protection of a car body is quite vulnerable. You should consult with a knowledgeable, dedicated motor vehicle accident attorney after you or your family member has suffered an injury in a motorcycle accident such as:
- Road rash (serious skin injury)
- A traumatic head injury
- A spinal cord injury
- An amputation
- A back or neck injury
If our attorneys are on board as your advocates after a motorcycle crash, we will begin a detailed investigation right away. Part of the investigation will be to reconstruct the sight lines of the motorist who was at the wheel of a car or truck. Could that driver see the motorcycle — or should he or she have been able to see it?
As we prepare to file an injury claim or lawsuit after a motorcycle accident, we keep in mind that bias against motorcycle riders may be a factor that requires special attention. It is possible that a police officer, jury members, a judge and/or insurance claims adjusters may be not be able to be objective in their assessment of liability. Many people automatically blame a motorcyclist for causing an accident when in fact, the motorcyclist may have been wearing a helmet and following all the rules of the road. Our lawyers are prepared to stand up for your rights as a law-abiding motorcyclist.
