Insurance companies often have difficulty understanding the peculiarities of motorcycles. Someone needs to patiently and carefully explain how motorcycles differ from automobiles.  Few attorneys understand not only the mechanics of motorcycles, but the mechanics of motorcycle accidents.

Typically, the insurance company will try to get out of giving you a settlement, or at least minimize the amount. Plus, nobody pays their bills until they have to, especially insurance companies.

In most courts it can take over a year to even get to trial. If you don’t start quickly, you could be in for a long wait. To help you reach your goal of getting your settlement quickly, we’ll file suit in just days (not months).

We’re skilled at preparing cases so they can be settled fast rather than proceeding into an unnecessary trial. How? By preparing your case thoroughly and making sure the other side realizes they have no major issues to use against you to win. This leaves them with no choice but settle out of court, which means you’ll realize a BIG savings of both time and money.

Compared to an automobile, motorcycle operation is far more complex.  In a potential accident situation, the rider must decide whether to brake, swerve, or brake and then swerve.  To do this, the rider must determine the trajectory of the various vehicles involved.  The rider needs to modulate the front and rear brakes, whereas in a car, they simply stomp on the brake pedal.

It is common for witnesses to a motorcycle accident to err in estimating the rider’s speed.  Often engine noise causes witnesses to think a bike is going much faster than it is.  Some investigating officers make assumptions about motorcycle riders that result in an unfair police report.

Not all of this will disappear, but you need someone experienced in dealing with these issues to help you.

You have many potential sources for payment of your medical bills. But, you’ll need to understand the differences in each of the source so that you can maximize the coverage available to you.

But, be aware that this can get tricky because your coverage can include the following sources…

• Medical insurance through work;
• Medical payments through your motorcycle insurance;
• Worker’s Compensation payments if you were hurt while on the job at the time of your accident;
• and perhaps payment from the government such as medical and medicare.

But, be aware that many policies limit what they’ll pay and won’t cover bills that are covered by other policies. Plus, many types of medical insurance policies will claim for repayment from the insurance company. In other words, they want to be paid back from your settlement!

As you can imagine, this is complicated. You’ll want an experienced motorcycle accident attorney to guide you and help you to avoid making costly mistakes.
