Motorcycle Accident Attorneys

Motorcycle Accident Lawyer

For some, riding a motorcycle is an enjoyable experience, an escape from a long day of work, or a simple joyride through the country. Suddenly, this ride can turn from relaxation to nightmare in an instant. There is no such thing as a “fender bender” when motorcyclists are involved in accidents. When they get in wrecks, it is skin and bone that hits the pavement rather than steel.

The common misconception is that motorcycle drivers are reckless on the road and cause most of the accidents they are involved in. On the contrary, passenger vehicle drivers are often negligent on the road, failing to notice motorcyclists before changing lanes, or seeing them too late to avoid a collision.

Unfortunately, the risk associated with motorcycles can make the job of defending motorcycle accident victims' rights difficult. The skilled motorcycle accident lawyers at Ferrer, Poirot & Wansbrough have the knowledge and experience to recover compensation motorcyclists deserve.

Motorcyclists' Rights

Motorcyclists have the same rights as drivers injured in automobile and truck accidents. Because of the perception that motorcycles are more dangerous, insurance companies may try to bully victims out of compensation for medical expenses, which can be extensive in motorcycle accident cases.

Don't let this happen to you. Contact the motorcycle accident attorneys at Ferrer, Poirot & Wansbrough immediately. We are experienced in dealing with insurance companies and will protect your rights to receive compensation after a motorcycle accident.

Being Prepared

After being injured in a motorcycle accident, there are steps you can take to protect your rights and prepare yourself for dealing with insurance companies.

First, do not speak to insurance adjustors at the scene of an accident or sign anything without first contacting a motorcycle accident lawyer at Ferrer, Poirot & Wansbrough. You may be signing away any future rights to compensation.

See a doctor immediately, and keep all of your medical records on file. Be sure to note all medications you are prescribed, treatment regimens, therapy, and all other medical expenses. Documentation of these will strengthen your claim and help ensure you receive due compensation.

Call your insurance company. A delay in notifying the insurance company could hurt your claim. They will keep a file of all expenses related to the accident, including medical bills and property damage.

Keep records of everything. Even though your insurance company will have records, be sure to keep your own to guard against discrepancies. Make note of the weather and road conditions on the day of the accident. Construction areas and speed zones are also important to note. Keep a journal of your injuries. It may be difficult to remember how much it hurt to pull on a sweater six or seven months later, but having detailed records can dramatically help your claim.
