Baton Rouge Motorcycle Accident Injury Attorneys

Motorcyclists are some of the most vulnerable drivers on the roadway, but too many motorists neglect their obligation to better protect riders on the road. Even the best helmets and gear aren’t always enough to protect a motorcyclist when the worst happens.

Once you’ve been involved in a crash, your entire world can be turned upside down. Suddenly, you or your loved ones have extensive medical bills to handle, the loss of wages due to an inability to work, future medical expenses like therapy and in-home care, and other recovery costs to worry about. Not to mention the strain of possibly losing a loved one or facing a complete change in the life that you once knew due to paralysis, amputation, or even the mental health issues associated with a major accident.

Without good legal representation, you’ll have the cards stacked against you in an injury claim. You’ll be fighting against insurance companies and attorneys representing the opposing party, both of which make their money by limiting the amount of compensation paid out in an injury claim. When you have been involved in a collision, you don’t have the ability to fight for your legal right to compensation on your own because you are too busy recovering from the extensive injuries that your accident has caused.

If you or a loved one has been in a collision, you don’t have to take on the insurance companies alone. Reach out to us for a free consultation with a motorcycle accident lawyer in Baton Rouge. We’ll help you determine what compensation you are entitled to based on your injuries and will act on your behalf to meet with opposing parties in order to settle your claim fairly.

What Can Cause Motorcycle Accidents In Louisiana?

Accidents on the road can happen to the best drivers if conditions are poor. While negligent drivers in much larger vehicles are the most common cause of motorcycle accidents, they are far from the only ones. Some of the other factors that can lead to injury or death for motorcycle riders include:

  • Poor Visibility – This can be poorly lit roads, poorly distinguished lanes, obscured vision from oncoming headlights, or bad weather.
  • Poor Road Conditions – Also frequently caused by bad weather, poor road conditions can also include potholes, ditches, and poorly maintained roads
  • Changes in the type of roads, such as changes from asphalt to cobble or another uneven surface
  • Speed bumps, barriers, and low curbs
  • Defective parts
  • Intoxication of another driver or motorcyclist
  • Lack of proper signage
  • Negligent drivers or reckless driving

There can be numerous causes of a single accident, some of which are completely unavoidable. However, most severe motorcycle accidents are caused by another driver’s negligence. All drivers have a responsibility to be safe on the road; if you or a loved one has been the victim of an unsafe driver, it’s time to call a motorcycle accident attorney to represent your rights and get you fair compensation for your injuries.

Injuries Sustained From Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcyclists may face the hardest recovery after an accident. This extensive recovery could mean that you or your loved one is unable to take the appropriate actions to get compensation. Because you need to take the time to recover, an attorney will need to work closely with your doctors in order to gauge the extent of your injuries and determine both the at-fault party and the amount of compensation you would be owed.

Part of what your attorney will do early in your case is to assess the type of injuries you have sustained and how life-altering those injuries will be. You may have sustained burns, scrapes, and broken bones. Or you may have experienced devastating injuries such as brain and spinal cord injuries and organ damage. If any of your injuries are extensive enough, they could lead to amputation, paralysis, and death. Additionally, you may begin to suffer from PTSD, anxiety, depression, or other mental health concerns as a result of your accident.

Regardless of the extent of damage that has been done due to the negligence of another driver, you still have the option to seek recourse with the help of an aggressive Baton Rouge motorcycle accident lawyer.

We Will Handle All Documentation And Negotiating For You!

It’s important that we document the aftermath of your accident right away so the evidence is as fresh as possible. Our injury lawyers in Baton Rouge will immediately work on getting photos and videos of the collision. We will also visit the accident site, contact witnesses, and gather evidence of your injuries.

Keeping records, talking to the proper authorities, and collecting police reports are just some of the many tasks that our lawyers can perform for you. No matter what trauma or property damage you may have suffered, a Baton Rouge motorcycle accident lawyer can help prove your claim.
