Leading Causes of Motorcycle Accidents

Although there may be several variables involved in a motorcycle accident, the most common causes of severe injuries or fatalities involve the negligence of a driver. A motorcycle offers little protection when it collides with a car or truck. A car or truck has sheet metal, steel and other solid protection from the outside world to shield its drivers and passengers. A motorcycle does not have any similar protection. Therefore, when a motorcyclist gets into an accident with a car the impact can be devastating for the motorcyclist.

Motorcyclist should exercise a greater sense of defensive driving. Because of the lack of protection and drivers attributing their collisions with motorcyclist to “not being able to see them” a motorcyclist should be very careful.

The following are common causes of motorcycle accidents:

The injuries resulting from these accidents are often significant and can require substantial medical attention and continuing care. In order to make sure that you are properly compensated for your damages, enlist the help of a trustworthy attorney.

Quite often, when a motorcycle accident occurs it is important to have a dedicated motorcycle accident attorney on your case. If retained for your case I will diligently investigate all aspects of your case and pursue the compensation you may be entitled to. When I am retained by a client for their case I look into all avenues of their case and use a system that pursues full value for insurance claims.

My Two Wheel Accident:

On June 6, 2012, my life changed forever. I was riding my moped to work at the local restaurant in Hawaii Kai, HI when a rental vehicle crossed the lane line directly beside me and impacted me. This caused me to be hurled into the sky, slammed and skidded accross the asphalt with my head and upper body breaking my fall. This was all prior to becoming an attorney. I was living the life prior to that day, I rented a shoe box sized bedroom off Hobron lane. I worked at the restaurant in the evening and rented out Scoot Coupes to tourist on Waikiki Beach during the day. In hindsight, no settlement was going to bring that back. But, the settlement I got did help pay for my $48,000 in medical expenses from a week in the hospital, lost wages, pain and suffering. 

If you have been injured in a motorcycle accident, I hope you call me to see if I can work for you to obtain the maximum amount from the insurance carrier. You keep your end of the bargain by paying premiums, hopefully an accident doesn't occur but if it does, they need to pay out the policy and uphold their end of deal. Unfortunately, to get you what you are entitled to sometimes that requires lawsuits, courts and jurys.

What is The Drivers Exchange of Information?

Image
 If you are ever in the unfortunate circumstances of needing a car accident lawyer, you will most likely have received a Drivers Exchange of Information. When a person gets into a car accident most of the time the local authorities will respond to the scene. They arrive at the scene assess the situation and issue a drivers exchange of information. Why The Drivers Exchange of Information is Important. When the local authorities arrive on the scene they usually speak to each driver, passengers and any witnesses. The officer will typically collect information about every one they talk to and what the officers findings were. The officer will then put this information in a police report. Generally, the police report is not available immediately and cannot be obtained for a few days or even weeks after the accident. This is precisely why the drivers exchange of information is important. Because the drivers exchange of information is usually distributed to each driver at the scene of the acci

Why you should not post anything about your case on the internet.

Image
 After a car accident a lot of information is typically unknown. There still needs to be an investigation of the accident. The responding officers police report most likely has not been written. Generally, how the accident happened is not established. This is an important consideration when posting information about your accident online. As a general matter, it is best if a client does not post information about their case on the internet. Why you should not put information about your case on the internet. Quite often, persons say inaccurate things online that have nothing to do with the actual events that took place regarding an accident. Sometimes, information posted online can later be used in court to portray a set of events that were not what you meant to portray when you posted about your accident. That is perhaps the biggest reason you should not post anything about your accident online. Even if other people are posting information about your accident online you should ignore it

What are Punitive Damages?

Image
In the United States, there are local jurisdictional state statutes known as punitive damages statutes. There is also a significant amount of case law on how punitive damages are interpreted by the court system. Generally, punitive damages is an award directed to the plaintiff in a case with the purpose of "punishing" the at-fault party for the egregiousness of their acts. In an auto accident negligence case this can have significant meaning when negotiating a settlement. What Punitive Damages Mean For My Case. I have represented several clients where punitive damages apply. One client was in a motorcycle accident with a head injury, I was able to obtain a full policy settlement for him of $100,000.00. A consideration with his case was that the at-fault driver whom fled the scene was suspected of being under the influence of alcohol. When a person is under the influence of alcohol or other inebriation causes a motor vehicle accident with injuries to other persons, punitive da
