Why You Should Hire a Motorcycle Accident Attorney

There are plenty of good reasons why you should hire a motorcycle accident attorney and have a relationship with a law firm that has a vested interest in riders like yourself.

Connection to Medical Experts

Our team of member lawyers have relationships with local doctors and medical specialists who are experts in motorcycle injuries. This will save you from wasting any money you may be awarded in your case on medical care or procedures. Also, because we have a good relationship with doctors, in many cases you won’t need to pay out-of-pocket as these doctors are willing to accept payment after you reach a settlement in your case.

Bike and Gear Replacement

We know how important your motorcycle and gear are to you. When you hire us, our experienced member lawyers will work with you to get your bike repaired or replaced. We make sure insurance companies don’t shortchange you on the true value of your property – even custom parts.

Law is Complicated

You never expect to have an accident, nor the damage and injury you might face from it. The worst time to try to understand the legal process is right after you’re hurt and in recovery. While you focus on healing, let our team of experienced member motorcycle accident attorneys make the legal process simple for you, so that you’ll not only better understand what your rights are, but your motorcycle accident lawyer will work on your behalf to get the settlement you deserve.

What To Do After a Motorcycle Accident?

Motorcycle accidents can be overwhelming, but knowing what to do afterward can make a significant difference in protecting your health, rights, and future. Here’s a step-by-step guide on what to do after a motorcycle accident:

  1. Move to Safety if Possible

If you’re able, move yourself and your motorcycle out of the way of traffic to prevent further injuries or damage. Prioritize your safety; if moving is painful or impossible, wait for emergency responders.

  1. Check Yourself and Others for Injuries

Assess your injuries and, if possible, check on others involved in the accident. Even if injuries seem minor, internal injuries can be serious and may not show symptoms immediately.

  1. Call 911 and Report the Accident

Contact emergency services to report the accident, and ensure that medical help and police are dispatched.

Having a police report is essential for insurance claims and legal proceedings.

  1. Collect Information and Document the Scene

Gather details from the other driver(s), including name, contact information, driver’s license number, and insurance details.

Take photos or videos of the accident scene, your motorcycle, any other vehicles involved, and visible injuries. These can serve as valuable evidence.

  1. Speak Carefully and Avoid Admitting Fault

Avoid making statements about the accident’s cause, and don’t admit fault or apologize, as this could impact your insurance claim or legal case. Simply describe the facts of the situation to police and other drivers.

  1. Seek Immediate Medical Attention

Even if you feel fine, get checked by a medical professional as soon as possible. Some injuries, like concussions or whiplash, may not present symptoms right away.

Obtaining a medical evaluation creates a documented record of your injuries, which is essential if you file a personal injury claim later.

  1. Contact a Motorcycle Accident Attorney

Contacting Law Tigers or another experienced motorcycle accident attorney ensures you get experienced legal guidance from professionals who understand motorcycle accident cases.

The Law Tigers team can assist you with gathering evidence, managing negotiations, and representing your best interests, especially if you’re seeking compensation for injuries or damages.

  1. Notify Your Insurance Company

Contact your insurance company and report the accident as soon as you can.

Provide them with the details but avoid giving a recorded statement until you’ve consulted an attorney.

  1. Keep Records of All Expenses and Documentation

Save all documents related to the accident, including medical bills, repair estimates, and police reports.

Tracking your expenses helps you understand the full financial impact of the accident and strengthens your claim for compensation.

What Does the Legal Process Look Like for Motorcycle Cases?

Here’s a simple guide of what the process should look like after you hire a motorcycle accident attorney.

1. Contact Law Tigers!

Speak with an experienced motorcycle accident lawyer* who’ll bring their entire legal team together to handle your case. The team consists of paralegals, legal staff, experts as needed, accident scene reconstructionists, specialists, etc. You will stick with the same team throughout the entire process, so there isn’t any ‘catching up’ that needs to be done with your legal representative later in the process.

2. Ordering an Accident Report

Police reports will be requested by our team for gathering the details of your accident to be used in building your case.

3. Assessment and Creating Your Treatment Plan

With our network of medical specialists, we’ll help get you on your road to recovery with the right treatment and care you need.

4. Gathering Evidence

Photos of the accident, witness statements, police reports, and yours, as well as the other person’s insurance policies will be researched and collected when constructing your case.

5. Possibly Filing a Claim or Lawsuit

If the insurance companies will not offer you reasonable compensation a lawsuit may be filed and your case may then be tried in court by your legal team. This depends on how strong of a case your legal team has in getting your damages and injuries paid for.

6. Strategy to Counter

Your legal team will come up with a plan on how to rightfully defend your case against insurance companies trying to say you’re liable.
