Wilmington, DE Motorcycle Accident Lawyers Getting Clients Fair Compensation

The freedom of driving a motorcycle on Delaware roads can be exhilarating. However, a fun drive can quickly turn tragic when another driver is distracted or does not obey traffic laws. Sadly, many accidents involving motorcycles result in catastrophic injury or even death. This can devastate the lives of victims and their families, leaving them with countless bills to pay without the income from the injured motorcycle rider.

Many people think that an insurance claim will be sufficient to cover the costs of a motorcycle crash, but this is usually not the case. The insurance company will probably not recognize such damages as lost wages, emotional pain, and other injuries sustained in the collision. To make a full financial recovery, you should consider speaking with an experienced motorcycle accident attorney.

Your lawyer can help you gather evidence to show you deserve full compensation for economic and non-economic damages. Call our law offices today at 302-654-4930 to schedule an appointment with a knowledgeable motorcycle accident lawyer and get the legal representation you deserve.

What Are Some Common Causes for Motorcycle Crashes in Delaware?

Riding a motorcycle presents drivers with some risks that other vehicles do not have. Because of a motorcycle’s smaller size, other drivers on the road may not see the motorcycle, causing an accident. However, the at-fault party can still be held liable because they owe a duty of care to all vehicles on the road, including motorcycles.

Some examples of reasons a motor vehicle could collide with a motorcycle include:

  • Distracted driving, such as operating a vehicle while eating, drinking, or using a cell phone
  • Driving at excessive speeds
  • Stopping suddenly without warning
  • Changing lanes without signaling
  • Violating traffic signs and stop lights
  • Cars making left turns and thinking they can pull out before the motorcycle passes
  • Failure to check blind spots when turning or changing lanes

If you are suffering from injuries due to another driver’s inattention or traffic violation, call our law firm immediately for excellent legal counsel and representation.

What Injuries Typically Occur in a Motorcycle Accident?

Motorcycles offer very little protection, leaving motorcycle accident victims exposed to the impact of the other vehicle. Because of this, motorcycle accident injuries are usually very severe, requiring extensive medical treatment, such as hospitalization and surgeries.

Some injuries an injured motorcyclist could experience include:

  • Broken bones
  • Road rash
  • Lacerations
  • Loss of limb
  • Traumatic brain injury
  • Spine and neck injury
  • Paralysis
  • Emotional trauma
  • Wrongful death

Whether you or a loved one was a biker or motorcycle passenger who is suffering injuries from a collision, you should speak with a legal professional to see if you should pursue legal action in a motorcycle accident claim. Call Schwartz and Schwartz, Attorneys at Law, P.A., to schedule a free case evaluation and discuss the details of your unique situation.

How Much Compensation Can I Receive in My Motorcycle Accident Case?

You should meet with a lawyer in person to get an accurate estimate of how much your case is worth. However, you can expect a successful lawsuit to result in compensation for at least some of the following items:

  • Past and future medical expenses
  • Specialist charges, such as chiropractors and physical therapy
  • Past and future lost income
  • Decreased income-earning capacity
  • Catastrophic injuries
  • Pain and suffering
  • Mental distress
  • Wrongful death

Chances are the other party’s insurance company will not cover most of these damages in a settlement. However, with a skilled attorney on your side, you have a better chance of recovering the compensation you deserve.

Should You Hire Our Motorcycle Accident Attorneys?

If you or your loved one was involved in a motorcycle wreck, you have our deepest sympathy. Our talented legal team promises to stand by your side as we help you prove negligence and recover compensation for your suffering. Our skilled lawyers can work with insurance companies to negotiate a fair settlement that matches the pain you have gone through.

When you are recovering from severe injuries in a motorcycle accident, the last thing you need is to worry about the legal aspects of recovering damages. Call our law firm today to rely on our experience and dedication in seeking maximum compensation for your family. You can reach us at 302-654-4930 to free case review.
