Motorcycle Accident Information

Motorcycles are a popular form of transportation, perhaps more so now with the higher cost of gasoline.  Unfortunately, as with pedestrian/vehicle accidents, when motorcyclists are involved in accidents with passenger vehicles, motorcyclists and their passengers are also more likely to suffer serious injury and death as a result, primarily due to the lack of safety provided when riding a motorcycle.

Even when helmets are used, the impact of a collision can still result in serious or deadly consequences. Because motorcyclists have virtually no other protection, accidents can easily result in:

  • fractures and dislocations,
  • severe lacerations,
  • internal injuries,
  • head and neck injuries,
  • amputations,
  • paralysis, and
  • death.

Motorcyclists Have The Same Rights to the Road

Some people believe that riding a motorcycle is an inherently risky activity, and that if a motorcyclist or a motorcycle passenger is injured, they have assumed such risk of injury simply by riding a motorcycle in the first place. We disagree with this belief.

The vast majority of motorcycle riders are highly concerned with safety; probably more so than vehicle drivers who are protected by their vehicle. Motorcyclists, on the other hand, must be vigilant at all times, as they are highly likely to bear the brunt of injury for the mistakes of those in vehicles.

Client Review

I’m a veteran that was in a motorcycle accident last summer. I was making good money building cellphone towers but due to my back injury, I could not return back to work. Mr. Friedlander was able to settle my case in one year and was able to cover all my medical costs and leaving me with enough left over to afford to get my bachelors degree while living comfortably. THANK YOU!!!!
