HAVE YOU BEEN INJURED IN A MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT?

Steven Day June 19, 2020

As a motorcyclist, you're more at risk to be involved in an injury accident. When that happens, do you know what to do next? How can you get the help you deserve if you've been hurt?

You may already know that you should hire an accident attorney to help you navigate all the difficulties that can arise from being involved in an accident -- whether you're a motorcyclist or you're simply someone who had a slip and fall in front of a business. But do you know how to find a good personal injury lawyer when you really need one?

WERE YOU INJURED AS A MOTORCYCLIST?

In the U.S., there are approximately 31 million injuries that require medical attention every single year. Many of those involve a motorcyclist who was injured on the road. If you become one of them, you need a good accident attorney. Whether or not the accident was caused by driver error isn't always the determining factor when it comes to receiving a settlement.

If you've been hurt at all as a motorcyclist, no matter what the circumstances may be, its always a good idea to contact a lawyer and tell them what happened. You may be able to fight for compensation. And if you have medical expenses or bike repairs that stem from the accident, it's definitely worth finding out if you may be entitled to receive some sort of compensation.

When any type of injury is involved, who is at fault isn't always what's important. Consult with a personal injury lawyer and find out what they have to say. It's never a bad idea to speak with a lawyer. These professionals have studied for years to understand the law, which can be pretty complicated. A lawyer can help you determine if you may be entitled to receive a settlement from an insurance company, another driver, even a place of business where your accident occurred.

But do you know how to find a good attorney to get the help you need when you need it? How do you know where to turn when you’ve been hurt? This is a time when you're going to be in distress. That's all perfectly natural. What you need to do is slow down and take the time to find a good attorney. Once that's done, the entire process will become much easier and you will have someone who is one your side to help you every step of the way.

FINDING AN ACCIDENT INJURY ATTORNEY

How can you find a good attorney to help you when you're an injured motorcyclist? There are many attorneys out there. Make it easy on yourself by focusing on specific search criteria. First, you don't want to start with a list of every lawyer in your area. Lawyers choose different branches of law, so you want one who has specifically focused on personal injury. You also want to find a lawyer who is located close to you or close to where your accident occurred. Lawyers have to go to the courthouse to file paperwork and may ask you to have an in-person meeting at their office or another location, so stick to a 50-mile radius or smaller.

Once you have these search criteria to work with, you can start doing deeper research on lawyers who have a proven track record. Many lawyers will list their achievements, credentials, and case history on their website, so you can get a look at their record of wins and losses and get an idea of how long they've been practicing law. This will help you find the right lawyer to handle your case. Once you have a few names to work with, call these lawyers to find out if one of them is willing to take on your case. It's just that simple to find a good lawyer who will work hard to protect your rights and fight for compensation.
