HELPING INJURED MOTORCYCLISTS RECEIVE FAIR TREATMENT AND THE COMPENSATION THEY DESERVE

Many individuals enjoy riding their motorcycles and the feel of the open road. Others enjoy the economic benefits of riding a motorcycle to and from work and other destinations. However, motorcyclists are far more likely than motorists driving large vehicles to be involved in a collision.

In many instances, bikers suffer severe injuries that can cause them to miss a considerable amount of time at work, which quickly leads to a financial crisis for them and their families.

If you or your motorcycle passenger have been injured in an accident caused by another person’s negligence, you must hire an experienced personal injury lawyer immediately.

The Labovitz Law Firm has comprehensive experience handling motorcycle accident claims and obtaining fair compensation for injury victims. Contact our St. Louis, MO, law offices to schedule a free consultation to discuss your case.

WHAT FACTORS LEAD TO MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENTS?

Accidents involving motorcycles may be caused by several reasons, including:

Also, left-hand turns can be hazardous as a motor vehicle driver often fails to watch for oncoming motorcyclists. If the driver fails to signal or see the motorcycle rider before turning left, it could result in a head-on collision or a T-bone accident.

Finally, when drivers stop quickly in front of motorcyclists, it often results in devastating rear-end collisions.

If you have been injured in a motorcycle accident case due to another person’s negligence, you need solid legal representation. The Labovitz Law Firm can help you file a motorcycle accident claim with the other party’s insurance company and work to help you obtain fair compensation. Furthermore, if you have been injured due to a defective motorcycle, our legal team has the experience to hold negligent parties accountable for their actions.

WHAT TYPES OF INJURIES DO MOTORCYCLE RIDERS TYPICALLY SUSTAIN?

Some of the most common injuries include:

Bikers are at a far greater risk of suffering permanent injuries such as paralysis or even death in a crash. However, families who have lost a loved one in a motorcycle accident should be aware that they only have three years to file a wrongful death claim.

If you have been injured, allow the Labovitz Law Firm of St. Louis to help you obtain the justice and financial recovery you deserve.

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO HAVE A MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT LAWYER HELP ME TRY AND RECOVER COMPENSATION?

Sadly, motorcycle accident victims often find that the other driver’s insurance company tries to blame them for causing the accident. In cases where the provider tries to deny an insurance claim by blaming the accident victim, it often becomes necessary to file a lawsuit to try to recover compensation.

Motorcycle accident victims may be able to obtain economic and non-economic damages, also called compensatory damages.

Economic Damages

Economic damages are awarded to accident victims to help them repay the money they have paid out of pocket after being injured and may include:

If you sustained a severe or catastrophic injury such as spinal cord or traumatic brain injuries, you most likely would require long-term medical treatment, which can be quite costly. However, a skilled lawyer can advocate to ensure you receive a settlement that will account for your future needs.

Non Economic Damages

Non-economic damages are awarded based on the facts of the case and are intended to try and compensate an injury victim for intangible losses. Non-economic damages that may be awarded include:

Motorcyclists injured in an accident should only try to negotiate a settlement with the insurance company with the assistance of a knowledgeable attorney who can thoroughly review the case to determine appropriate damages.

WHAT MAKES YOUR MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT ATTORNEY THE BEST CHOICE FOR MY LEGAL NEEDS?

For this reason, anyone injured in a motorcycle accident must hire a lawyer who understands how insurance companies work and fights to obtain a fair settlement for their injuries.

However, most accident victims are unaware that most personal injury cases are settled out of court through negotiations with the insurance provider.

Nevertheless, should the need arise, our motorcycle accident lawyer is prepared to take your case to court and prove negligence to ensure your legal rights are protected and you are treated fairly.

The Labovitz Law Firm has vast experience negotiating with insurance companies and is fearless in standing up for our clients’ rights.
