Motorcycle Accidents

Being a motorcycle rider, I understand that the biggest problem for riders is that too many drivers don't know how to properly share the road with bikers. Car and truck drivers don't keep a proper lookout for bikers and don't respect the buffer zone that bikers must have around them when they drive on the streets and highways. Also, because bikers don't have the "cage" of a car around them, the injuries sustained in a motorcycle accident can be devastating and often catastrophic.

Statistics show that bikers are 27 times more likely to be involved in a fatal accident than car and truck drivers, according to the Insurance Information Institute. The simple fact is, riding a motorcycle on the roads can be inherently unsafe. Virginia has several laws and statutes pertaining to motorcycles and the operation of a motorcycle. See Virginia Motorcycle Statutes.

Being involved in a motorcycle accident can be a life changing event. The traumatic injuries can leave you feeling overwhelmed by pain and by the financial pressure of being out of work and unable to pay your medical bills. On top of it all, motorcycle riders have been saddled with the unfair and incorrect reputation of being unsafe. As a rider, I understand that most bikers operate their motorcycles with extreme caution and care.

Having a good personal injury attorney on your side can make a big difference when it comes to both the physical and financial healing process - an attorney who will help you move forward with your life with as little discomfort as possible. If you or a loved one was hurt in a motorcycle accident, you should talk to a personal injury attorney right away. Our firm can answer important questions like:

How will I pay these medical bills?

Is a motorcycle or bike accident different from other types of accident cases?
What if I wasn't wearing a helmet?
What if my motorcycle doesn't have a valid inspection or it's not properly registered?
What if the other party's insurance company is pressuring me to take a lowball offer or trying to deny my claim?
How do I manage my medical bills? Do I have to pay them?
How do I make up for lost income while my case is being litigated?
How do policy limits apply to the medical expenses in my case?
Does it matter which insurance company (or which adjuster) is handling my claim?
Will my case go to court?
