Where Motorcyclists
Get hurt in atlanta
Motorcycle accidents can occur anywhere within the city limits,but the majority likely occur in the following locations:
- Intersections. Motorcyclists may be struck while stopped at a red light, as a negligent or distracted motorist plows into them. Additionally, motorists can collide with motorcyclists when making a left-hand turn, especially if they are not paying attention to oncoming traffic.
- Parking lots. Motorcyclists are also susceptible to rear-end collisions in parking lots or being struck when a careless driver backs up without checking that the way is clear.
- Highways. Motorcyclists are frequently involved in accidents because their bikes blend in with the surroundings, and most drivers do not check for them in their rearview mirrors. Illegal lane changes and blind spot accidents are common occurrences.
- Downtown. Accidents can even occur downtown Atlanta when careless motorists clip or cut off motorcycles.
Regardless of where you are injured, contact us to determine if you have a legal right to compensation.
our Process
When you reach out to speak with our Atlanta motorcycle accident lawyer, we start working on your case immediately. Our law firm is proactive and committed to personalized legal representation. We understand that motorcycle accidents can result in painful injuries, and you need to focus on your medical care, rehab, and pain management. Our Atlanta motorcycle accident lawyers are here to take care of all your legal needs. We will begin building your case for compensation against the driver who struck you.
As part of our representation, we will:
- Perform an initial investigation to uncover what happened. Important evidence includes witness testimony, photographs of the scene, any video or dashcam footage, police reports, and physical evidence.
- Fully analyze your medical records and help document your bodily limitations. Motorcycle accidents leave both physical and emotional scars.
- Document your special damages—such as out-of-pocket medical expenses, other bills, and lost income. Insurance companies want to see an itemized list to fully value your claim.
- Handle all communications for you. Insurance adjusters should not be calling you at home or bothering you in person. If they do, refer them to us. We’ll respond to whatever request they are making for information about your injuries.
- Value your general damages—pain, inconvenience, suffering, emotional distress, and similar elements. Many insurers overlook general damages or attempt to minimize their worth. However, we can assist you in documenting these general damages to ensure you receive a fair settlement.
- Develop a personalized, results-driven legal strategy that is laser-focused on securing justice, accountability, closure, and the maximum financial compensation for you and your family. Motorcycle accidents are our expertise, and we go above and beyond to ensure that our clients receive the highest level of legal representation.
what you must prove
to receive compensation
Accidents are devastating, but being hit by a car or truck doesn’t automatically qualify you for compensation. Under Georgia law, we must establish fault for the collision. Fault is a legal concept that denotes responsibility for the accident, usually because someone was driving carelessly.
Because fault is crucial, we conduct thorough investigations to uncover what happened. In some cases, we might even hire a private investigator to gather as much evidence as possible.
Additionally, we need to prove the severity of your injuries and connect them to the accident. It’s not sufficient to have a pre-existing bad knee; you won’t receive compensation for that. You can assist your case by working closely with our legal assistant to compile all medical records and proof of expenses.
We also need to demonstrate other losses that should qualify for compensation:
- Lost income: You likely can’t work after your motorcycle accident, which is not surprising. You shouldn’t lose income because a negligent driver hit you or forced you off the road.
- Loss of earning capacity: If you have permanent injuries, you might never go back to work again or might need to get a lower-paying job. Many injured motorcyclists lose thousands going forward due to permanent injuries.
- Pain and suffering: Physical injuries cause pain, inconvenience, and disruption. We can seek compensation for this type of suffering in a motorcycle accident settlement.
- Loss of consortium: An uninjured spouse might also have a legal claim for loss of consortium. This claim seeks compensation for the loss of services, such as cooking and childrearing, usually after catastrophic injuries. Other losses in this type of claim include impaired sexual intimacy and loss of companionship.
Our legal team works closely with our clients to find the most compelling evidence to use when bolstering a case.
You Deserve Fair Compensation
An Atlanta motorcycle accident can leave someone flat on their back for months, typically resulting in traumatic injuries. You deserve fair and justifiable compensation for both your special and general damages.
A key issue often revolves around fault—who is to blame for the accident. Anticipate the driver who struck you attempting to shift some of the blame onto you. Due to our comprehensive accident investigations, we are prepared to attribute the blame where it belongs—on the negligent motorist who struck you.
We will set the record straight and explain how the driver was negligent, such as driving while distracted or intoxicated, or failing to use reasonable care. Our evidence will vary depending on the case but may include examining cell phone records, conclusively establishing that the driver was sending a text message when they hit you.
If a motorist is uninsured, you might file a claim on your uninsured motorist coverage. Using this insurance is often the only way to obtain compensation for an accident when an uninsured driver crashes into you. The good news is that you might be able to “stack” uninsured policies, increasing the amount available to cover your claim.
If we can’t negotiate a settlement, our legal team is prepared to file a lawsuit against the driver personally for negligence. Georgia law sets a deadline of two years from the date of the accident. Exceeding this deadline results in a permanent loss of the right to sue. It is critical that you contact our law firm immediately to protect your rights before this deadline expires.
what to do after an
Atlanta motorcycle accident
After a crash, our clients are usually shaken. Nevertheless, there are certain things they should do to enhance our ability to represent them:
- Call the police and report the accident. The police need to know that an accident took place, and an officer should prepare a police report.
- Seek prompt medical care. Any delay only makes it look like you aren’t really injured.
- Follow through on your doctor’s care plan, including rehabilitation and prescription medications. Injuries are usually serious, and the recovery process can take months or years.
- Keep receipts for all out-of-pocket expenses, such as medical bills, hospital bills, prescription medication, and repair estimates.
- Hold off on immediately fixing your bike. It might have evidence we find useful, and your attorney should look at it first.
- Avoid giving recorded statements with insurance adjusters unless your attorney knows.
The sooner you hire a lawyer, the stronger your claim will be. Our firm can provide individualized advice about what steps you should take in a free consultation. You do not have to take on big insurance companies alone. Get a passionate motorcycle accident lawyer on your side.
