Ohio Lawyer OH AttorneyText Box: Motorcycle Accidents

Text Box: When you are in a motorcycle accident, the injuries you sustain tend to be more severe than those caused by an automobile accident. Often other motor vehicle drivers do not see motorcyclists or act without the motorcyclists' safety in mind. Therefore, even if you take all of the appropriate safety precautions, you may still be involved in a motorcycle accident because of someone else's negligence. The insurance company for the person who hit you may contact you in order to take your statement and find out the extent of your injuries. Often the insurance company will pretend that you were just in a regular accident and may even try to say that you caused the accident. That's why you need an attorney who has experience in handling motorcycle accidents. It is important that you call The Friedman Law Firm before you speak to the insurance company so we can protect your rights and ensure that you are compensated in full for your injuries. If the person who caused the accident has liability insurance, their insurance company is responsible for the damages to your motorcycle, your medical bills, lost wages, and your pain and suffering. If the person responsible for the accident did not have insurance, you may still be able to bring an uninsured motorists' claim, depending on the situation. Your Medical Bills From A Motorcycle Accident The medical bills which you incur may not be paid until your claim is settled. However, in the meantime The Friedman Law Firm can ask the medical providers to wait to receive payment until settlement. If you have health insurance or medicaid/medicare, your medical bills should be processed by that source. Your health insurance provider may want to be reimbursed from the settlement for any amounts they pay out, but these amounts are normally less than the total amount of the medical bills. Lost Wages Due to Your Accident If your doctor keeps you off of work as a result of your injuries, your lost wages can be included as part of your settlement. We will obtain documentation from your doctor and your employer to verify the amount of time you missed from work. Pain and Suffering Due To The Motorcycle Accident Part of your settlement will include compensation for the pain and suffering you endured as a result of your injuries. This aspect of your claim is more subjective than other areas of your claim. Therefore, the insurance company will want to pay you as little as possible for your pain and suffering. Since over 70% of motorcycle accidents result in severe injury or death, we will fight the insurance company to prove your serious pain and suffering. Our Fee The Friedman Law Firm works on a contingency basis, meaning that our fee comes from the settlement. You do not owe us anything up front and you do not owe us anything if we are not able to obtain a recovery for you. Previous Motorcycle Accident Cases Trust The Friedman Law Firm to represent you when you are injured in a motorcycle accident. We will fight the insurance company to ensure that you receive the full value of your claim. For instance, one of our clients was severely injured on his motorcycle when another driver did not see our client and moved into our client's lane. Our client sustained severe injuries including brain injuries. We fought the insurance company for the individual that hit our client and received the large award that he was entitled to for his serious pain and suffering.
