Motorcycle Accident Attorney in Pompano Beach, FL

Every year, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), South Florida leads the nation’s number of motorcycle accidents and deaths. Motorcycle accidents can be a very traumatic experience that often lead to severe, debilitating, and in some cases, life-threatening injuries that can change your life. Not to mention, the financial, physical, and emotional hardships associated with a motorcycle accident can take a toll on you and your family.

It is common for police reports to blame the biker for a motorcycle accident. However, it is actually due to many factors, including dangerous roads, negligent drivers, and even debris on the road. Motorcyclists often bear the weight of the blame, when in reality, accidents are commonly caused by automobile drivers:

  • Failing to yield the right of way to a motorcycle
  • Cutting in front of motorcycles
  • Failing to check for motorcycle riders before switching lanes
  • Entering an intersection into the path of a motorcycle

Likewise, motorcycle accidents can also be the result of road hazards and defective motorcycle parts. These types of accidents mean that the accident claim needs to be handled differently.

If you or someone you know has been hurt in a motorcycle accident in Pompano Beach, you may be entitled to compensation for your injuries and damages. Working with a motorcycle accident attorney can help you fight for the compensation you deserve.

Motorcycle Accident Injuries

Unlike someone involved in a car accident, motorcycle riders are exposed to greater dangers and injuries. In most cases, motorcycle riders develop catastrophic injuries that require long-term care, which result in high medical bills, lost wages, and extensive pain and suffering. Motorcycle accident injuries include:

  • Brain injuries
  • Broken bones
  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Lacerations
  • Disfigurement
  • Wrongful death

At the law firm of LJW Legal, we understand the seriousness of these injuries and the impact a motorcycle accident can have on someone’s life. Let our trusted attorneys support you legally through this traumatic experience. We will aggressively fight against insurance companies trying to shift blame on your case, so we can fight for the compensation you deserve.

What to Do After a Motorcycle Accident in Pompano Beach

Similar to a car accident, if you’re involved in a motorcycle crash, there are specific steps you should take to make sure you set the foundation for a solid case. Of course, you want to start by seeking medical attention immediately. Treating your injuries and making sure everyone is safe should be the first step after any motor vehicle accident. You also want to:

  • Call your insurance company to report the accident
  • Collect the other drivers’ information
  • Document witnesses and their contact information
  • Contact an experienced attorney

Insurance companies will often do their best to shift the blame to the motorcycle rider, which is why working with an experienced attorney can make the difference. Don’t let that happen to your case; together we will fight to help you receive the compensation you deserve as a victim of the crash.

Motorcycle Accident Claims

Build Your Motorcycle Injury Compensation Team

Depending on the circumstances of the crash, you might have different legal options. Unlike car drivers, motorcycle riders aren’t required to carry Personal Injury Protection (PIP) insurance under Florida law. Even if you have PIP coverage on your car, this coverage does not extend to cover injuries from a motorcycle accident.

However, if another party was negligent and caused your accident, the law gives you the ability to hold them accountable for the injuries and damages they caused. The other party can be a negligent driver, a manufacturer that sold defective motorcycle parts, and even government agencies that failed to maintain roadways.

Because a motorcycle accident claim can be filed under so many different scenarios, working with an experienced attorney is imperative to build a solid case. The process for seeking compensation from a motorcycle accident can be challenging and complex, and having a legal compensation team you can trust is key to seeking the compensation you deserve.
