After a motorcycle accident that wasn’t your fault, all you want is to be fairly compensated for your medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. But the insurance company, whether it’s your own, the at-fault driver’s, or both, want anything but that. That’s because insurers not only want to protect their profits, and also because they rarely believe that injured motorcyclists deserve compensation.
The adjusters who handle claims at insurance companies are often biased against motorcyclists. When they get claims submitted by injured riders, they often assume that the riders are either trying to blame someone else for their accidents or that they shared most of the blame. In their minds, all motorcyclists are reckless daredevils who speed, weave in and out of traffic, and follow vehicles too closely.
Because of this unfair bias, many motorcyclists end up getting paid lowball settlements—or nothing at all. At Ferrer Poirot Feller Daniel, our Dallas motorcycle accident lawyers work hard to help injured riders get their claims not only treated fairly by insurance companies, but paid fairly. And when insurance companies refuse to cooperate with us, we don’t hesitate to take them and their clients to trial.
