Damages You Might Recover From a Motorcycle Accident

As entertaining as it is to ride a motorcycle, these vehicles present several risk factors not associated with automobiles. Their relative instability, tendency to wobble at high speeds, and lack of encasement, seatbelts, and airbags all add to the mix. As a result, motorcycle riders who experience accidents risk sustaining severe injuries.

The costs of medical treatment and other expenses can combine with the loss of income from missing work to create a hefty financial burden.

A Hempstead motorcycle accident lawyer at Friedman & Simon, L.L.P. is here to fight for your right to compensation. You do not need to bear the burden for an accident you did not cause. We will work tirelessly to make sure the at-fault party or their insurance carrier pay a just settlement or that the presiding court finds for you with a just award.

Some of the damages you might recover from an insurance settlement or a jury verdict include the following:

• Lost wages and benefits
• Cost of medical treatments
• Future/ongoing medical costs
• Diminished earning capacity
• Pain and suffering
• Prescription medicine costs
• Diminished future potential earnings
• Emotional trauma
• Diminished life enjoyment
• Pain management medication

What a Hempstead Motorcycle Accident Lawyer Will Do for Your Case

Our injury lawyers will address all details of your claim for damages leaving you to focus on your recovery. We handle the following:

Investigating Your Accident

We will gather and analyze evidence such as witness accounts, police reports, medical reports, and opinions of expert witnesses.

Determining Fault and Liability

Using findings from our investigation, we will prove who had a duty to behave in a way to keep you from harm. We will prove that this person failed in that responsibility, that this failure caused your accident and your injuries, and that you suffered damages as a result of the accident.

Calculating Your Damages

Depending upon the requirements of a particular case, we will:

• Enlist the help of economic consultants to validate the financial burden you have borne, and will likely bear in the future due to your injuries.
• Collaborate with vocational consultants who can speak to the impact your injuries will have on your ability to do the work you are accustomed to doing to earn a living.
• Talk to medical experts to interpret the extent of your injuries, and what treatment they will require now and in the future.
• Discuss your case with life care planners to determine whether you might need ongoing care and the costs you can expect.

Working with the Insurance Companies

We will contact the insurer of the liable party to present the damages you need to recover, and negotiate aggressively on your behalf for a fair settlement.

Filing a Lawsuit

As called for, if the insurer refuses to agree to a just settlement, we will file a lawsuit against the liable party. We will represent you in court and litigate your case with conviction.
