Motorcycle Accidents

Arizona Motorcycle Accident Lawyer

The driver of a motor vehicle has the duty to operate their vehicle in a safe manner so that they do not cause harm to another person. But, as motorcyclists know far too well, motorists are often careless in the vicinity of a motorcycle and do not see a motorcycle and its rider.

Motorcycles lack most of the safety equipment and offer none of the protection provided by an automobile. Motorcyclists, therefore, are at a disadvantage in any traffic accident. When in an accident, motorcyclists are far more likely to suffer serious bodily injury or death than a driver of a car. Even what would otherwise be a relatively minor collision can cause a motorcyclist severe injuries and extraordinary suffering and loss that have a great impact on not only the injured rider but also family members as well. Injured motorcycle accident victims and their family members may suffer economic loss, mental anguish and loss of companionship and assistance. In the event of a death, families are torn apart without warning.

Under the Laws of the State of Arizona, If You Have Been Injured in a Motorcycle Accident Then You Are Entitled to Recover Compensation for Your Personal Injury

In motorcycle accident cases, the injured rider may bring a claim to recover compensation for physical property damage, medical and rehabilitative expenses, physical and mental pain and suffering, past and future lost income, loss of future earning potential, permanent impairment and disfigurement, loss of enjoyment of life, and various other harms and losses. Family members may also be able to recover compensation for their mental anguish and the loss of companionship and assistance.

Motorcycle AccidentsAssessing Your Property Damage

The motorcycle accident victim may bring a claim to recover compensation for damage to their personal property. This includes not only damage to their motorcycle but also damage to any other property when the damage resulted from the accident. This may include motorcycle helmet, eye glasses, telephones, or even the clothing that they were wearing.

They may also be entitled to recover the difference in the fair market value of their motorcycle immediately before and immediately after the accident. This is called a “diminished resale value” claim.

Assessing Your Injuries and Bodily Injury Damages

A person injured in a motorcycle accident is entitled to the full amount of money that will reasonably and fairly compensate them for each of the following elements of damages proved by the evidence to have resulted from the accident:

  • The nature, extent, and duration of the injury.
  • The pain, discomfort, suffering, disability, disfigurement, and anxiety already experienced, and reasonably probable to be experienced in the future as a result of the injury.
  • Reasonable expenses of necessary medical care, treatment, and services rendered, and reasonably probable to be incurred in the future.
  • Lost earnings to date, and any decrease in earning power or capacity in the future.
  • Loss of love, care, affection, companionship, and other pleasures of the marital or family relationship.
  • Loss of enjoyment of life, that is, the participation in life’s activities to the quality and extent normally enjoyed before the injury.

Motorcycle Accident Injury Victims Who Have an Experienced Attorney Representing Them Receive Higher Compensation on Their Personal Injury Claims

If you have been in a motorcycle accident, consider the following reasons why you will benefit from contacting us.

Claims involving motorcycle accidents can be extremely complicated. We know how the Arizona laws apply to motorcycle riders. And, injured motorcyclists often face greater difficulty than other accident injury victims in getting the compensation that they deserve. Insurance companies often try to undermine the injured motorcyclist’s claim, or minimize or deny the injured rider full compensation for their injuries and losses. Insurance companies try to place blame on the motorcyclist in an effort to reduce or deny compensation. Insurance companies may try to convince the motorcyclist that they were at fault for their injuries if they were not wearing a helmet, or that they were at fault for the accident if the other driver could not see them.

We do not accept any arguments shifting blame or responsibility to the injured rider for the accident or your injuries. We use our in-depth knowledge and understanding of the law and the evidence to refute the insurance company’s claim that you were at fault.

In addition, we work with, interpret, and analyze motorcycle insurance and automobile insurance policies every single day.
