Not all personal injury or car accident lawyers represent people who have been involved in a motorcycle crash. Whether the motorcycle rider was at fault is not the issue. Bikers have their own set of road rules that must be applied to the case (such as safety equipment and bike handling knowledge and experience). Interpretation of an accident scene is also different in that the bike can be thrown further than a passenger vehicle if hit at the right angle. Also, a rider’s skill may be taken into consideration as to whether lack of skill was the cause of the accident.
Do not get caught in a situation where in the other driver was at fault but tries to blame your lack of riding skill for the accident. If you do not have a motorcycle accident lawyer to help present your case, you may not get the compensation to which you may be entitled. If you or a loved one has been in a motorcycle crash, contact our motorcycle accident experts for a free consultation.
