Sun Valley Motorcycle Accident Lawyers

A motorcycle accident attorney takes the time to study your case. If your lawyer decides that you have a valid lawsuit against the negligent party, the attorney will legally represent you in or out of the courtroom. Plus, you are not required to pay the lawyer any money unless you win your case.

Whether the case is won according to a verdict by a jury or as an out-of-court settlement, your Sun Valley motorcycle accident lawyer makes sure you receive monetary compensation for your injuries. Although money can never repay you for your suffering, it can compensate you if you are no longer able to work or if you do not have any money in your savings account.

Remember that your initial consultation is completely free. In addition, you do not need to pay any retainer fees for representation by a personal injury attorney specializing in motorcycle accidents. Instead, you reimburse the lawyer with a previously specified percentage of your award.

Automobile versus Motorcycle accidents in Sun Valley

Even though motorcycles are not as common as automobiles, statistics show that the percentage of motorcycle accidents is higher than the percentage of car collisions or crashes. Plus, motorcycle injuries tend to have more serious repercussions.

For one thing, motorcyclists do not always wear their protective helmets. Another issue is that motorcycles do not feature doors, sides or roofs. Consequently, a collision involving a motorcycle is often a devastating experience.

Is the Motorcyclist to Blame for all Motorcycle Accidents?

Failure to wear protective gear can cause an accident. However, accidents frequently occur because drivers do not always yield the right-of-way to motorcyclists. However, most accidents are caused by vehicle drivers who do not see the motorcycles.

The question regarding lenience about wearing helmets is another serious issue. Most people would agree that motorcyclists should always wear helmets, especially since helmets can provide protection against incurring a traumatic brain injury (TBI). Yet some state legislators have chosen to relax the rules about the need to wear helmets despite the known fact that helmets offer protection from acquiring brain injuries. Of course, motorcyclists can still choose to wear helmets even if the law states that wearing helmets is not mandatory.

Typical motorcycle accident injuries

Typical motorcycle accident injuries include:

• wounds to the skin (road rash)
• various types of fractures including broken bones
• spinal cord injuries resulting in complete paralysis 
• traumatic brain injuries.

Motorcyclists incurring brain injuries may experience permanent loss of short-term memory. Loss of memory can cause other cognitive problems including difficulties concentrating and harboring persistent angry emotions. A traumatic brain injury can cause the victim to lose a job or make it difficult to find work.
