Motorcycle Accidents
Motorcycle accidents often involve catastrophic injuries or death because the driver does not have the frame of a vehicle to help absorb the impact like in an automobile collision. According to the National Highway Transportation Board, motorcycle riders are several times more likely than automobile drivers to suffer a catastrophic injury, permanent disability, or death in the event of a collision with another vehicle. Serving Marietta, Roswell, Atlanta, and all of Georgia, the motorcycle accident lawyers at Fried Rogers Goldberg LLC are experienced in representing motorcycle drivers in minor and catastrophic personal injury cases.
Causes of Motorcycle Accidents
Most of the time, the motorcyclist is not at fault in causing a collision. Most accidents occur when a distracted, reckless, or intoxicated automobile driver does not see the motorcycle before making a maneuver, hitting the motorcycle or causing the rider to lose control. Many times, motorcycle accidents occur because another motor vehicle suddenly turned in front of the motorcycle. Our firm, serving Marietta, Roswell, Atlanta, and all of Georgia, has experienced motorcycle accident lawyers ready to fight for you if you or a loved one has been injured on a motorcycle due to another person's negligence. Common causes of motorcycle accidents include:
- Drunk driving
- Poor road and weather conditions
- Pedestrians suddenly running onto the road
- Traffic jams
- Reckless driving
Similar to car accident cases, motorcycle accidents can result in both property and injury-related expenses, many of which are not covered by insurance carriers. Before accepting any type of settlement from an insurance company, consult with a team of experienced motorcycle accident lawyers to help you obtain the compensation you deserve. Expenses related to motorcycle accidents include:
- Permanent disability
- Medical care and surgery
- Physical therapy and rehabilitation programs
- Lost wages
