What To Do After a Motorcycle Accident

What you do after a motorcycle accident can have a significant impact on your ability to maximize the compensation you receive for your injuries.

2010-12-09

December 09, 2010 (Press-News.org) What you do after a motorcycle accident can have a significant impact on your ability to maximize the compensation you receive for your injuries. Motorcycle accident attorneys understand how specific actions can help or hurt, jury verdicts and insurance claim settlements.

What You Should do to Protect your Interests after a Motorcycle Accident

The two most important to do when you sustain a motorcycle accident injury are seek medical attention and do not talk to the representative of any insurance company. Once you have received medical treatment, contact an attorney that concentrates on motorcycle accident injuries.

Seek medical attention - Your health is the most important thing to protect after a motorcycle accident. Brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, burns, road rash, and disfigurement and amputations are common injuries in motorcycle accidents. It is important to have any injuries documented by the emergency room or hospital staff. If possible, have them document that the injuries were caused by a motorcycle accident.

Don't make any statements to the police - Insurance companies comb police reports for any evidence that the rider may have caused the accident. Statements made just after you are injured can be confused and inaccurate. Nonetheless insurance companies can use them to minimize your recovery during settlement negotiations or at trial.

Don't talk to insurance companies - Insurance companies do not have your interests at heart. They make settlement offers based on formulas, not on the individual circumstances. And they understand that there is a prejudice against motorcycle riders.

Don't talk to them before talking to a motorcycle accident lawyer.

If you have suffered an injury in a motorcycle accident and would like to speak to a North Carolina motorcycle accident attorney, please contact The Karney Law Firm at 1 (888) 855-3504 or visit their site at http://www.karneylaw.com.
