Where Motorcyclists
Get hurt in atlanta
Motorcycle accidents can happen anywhere inside the city limits. But most accidents probably happen in the following locations:
- Intersections. Motorcyclists get struck while stopped at a red light, as a negligent or distracted motorist plows into them. Motorists can also hit motorcyclists when making a left-hand turn, especially if they are not paying attention to oncoming traffic.
- Parking lots. Motorcyclists are also rear-ended in parking lots or struck when a careless driver backs up without checking that the way is clear.
- Highways. Motorcyclists are often struck because their bikes blend in with the surroundings and most drivers are not checking for them in their rearview mirror. Illegal lane change and blind spot accidents are common.
- Downtown. Accidents can even happen downtown Atlanta when careless motorists clip or cut off motorcycles.
Regardless of where you are hurt, contact us to find out if you have a legal right to compensation.
our Process
When you reach out to speak with our Atlanta motorcycle accident lawyer, we get to work immediately on your case. Our law firm is proactive and committed to personalized legal representation. We know that motorcycle accidents can leave painful injuries. You need to focus on your medical care, rehab, and pain management. Our Atlanta motorcycle accident lawyers are here to take care of all our legal needs. We will begin building your case for compensation against the driver who struck you.
As part of our representation, we will:
- Perform an initial investigation to uncover what happened. Important evidence includes witness testimony, photographs of the scene, any video or dashcam footage, police reports, and physical evidence.
- Fully analyze your medical records and help document your bodily limitations. Motorcycle accidents leave behind both physical and emotional scars.
- Document your special damages—things like out-of-pocket medical expenses, other bills, and lost income. Insurance companies want to see an itemized list to fully value your claim.
- Handle all communications for you. Insurance adjusters should not be calling you at home or bothering you in person. If they do, send them to us. We’ll respond to whatever request they are making for information about your injuries.
- Value your general damages—pain, inconvenience, suffering, emotional distress, and things of that nature. Many insurers overlook general damages or try to minimize what they are worth. But we can help you document these general damages so that you receive a fair settlement for them.
- Develop a personalized, results-driven legal strategy that is laser-focused on getting you and your family justice, accountability, closure, and the maximum financial compensation. Motorcycle accidents are our business and we go above and beyond to ensure that your clients receive the absolute highest level of legal representation.
what you must prove
to receive compensation
Accidents are devastating, but getting hit by a car or truck doesn’t automatically qualify you for compensation. Under Georgia law, we must establish fault for the collision. Fault is a legal concept that means responsibility for the accident, usually because someone was driving carelessly.
Fault is so important, which is why we perform thorough investigations to uncover what happened. We might even hire a private investigator to uncover as much evidence as possible.
Additionally, we need to prove the severity of your injuries and connect them to the accident. It’s not enough that you have a bad knee. That could have been a pre-existing injury for which you won’t receive any compensation. You can help your case by working closely with our legal assistant to compile all medical records and proof of expenses.
We also need to show other losses that should qualify for compensation:
- Lost income. You probably can’t work after your motorcycle accident. That’s not surprising. You shouldn’t lose income because a negligent driver hit you or forced you off the road.
- Loss of earning capacity. Do you have permanent injuries? If so, you might never go back to work again, or you might need to get a lower-paying job. Many injured motorcyclists lose thousands going forward due to permanent injuries.
- Pain and suffering. Physical injuries cause pain, inconvenience, and disruption. We can seek compensation for this type of suffering in a motorcycle accident settlement.
- Loss of consortium. An uninjured spouse might also have a legal claim for loss of consortium. This claim seeks compensation for the loss of services, such as cooking and childrearing, usually after catastrophic injuries. Other losses in this type of claim include impaired sexual intimacy and loss of companionship.
Our legal team works closely with our clients to find the most compelling evidence to use when bolstering a case.
You Deserve Fair Compensation
An Atlanta motorcycle accident can keep someone flat on their back for months. These are usually traumatic injuries. You should receive fair, justifiable compensation for your special and general damages.
A key issue is often fault—who is to blame for the accident. You can expect the driver who struck you to try and pin some of the blame on you. Because we fully investigate these accidents, we are prepared to put the blame where it belongs—on the negligent motorist who struck you.
We will correct the record and explain how the driver was negligent, such as driving while distracted or intoxicated, or other failure to use reasonable care. Our evidence will depend on the case but might include looking at cell phone records which establish conclusively that the driver was sending a text message when he hit you.
If a motorist is uninsured, you might make a claim on your uninsured motorist coverage. Using this insurance is often the only way to get compensation for an accident when a driver without insurance crashes into you. The good news is that you might be able to “stack” uninsured policies and increase the amount available to cover your claim.
If we can’t negotiate a settlement, our legal team is ready to file a lawsuit against the driver personally for negligence. Georgia law sets a deadline of two years from the date of the accident. Go over this deadline and you permanently lose the right to sue. This deadline is critical that you must contact our law firm immediately so we can protect your rights.
what to do after an
Atlanta motorcycle accident
Our clients are usually shaken following a crash. Still, there are certain things they should do to improve our ability to represent them:
- Call the police and report the accident. The police need to know that an accident took place, and an officer should prepare a police report.
- Seek prompt medical care. Any delay only makes it look like you aren’t really injured.
- Follow through on your doctor’s care plan, including rehabilitation and prescription medications. Injuries are usually so serious that the recovery process can take months or years.
- Hang onto receipts for all out-of-pocket expenses, such as medical bills, hospital bills, prescription medication, and repair estimates.
- Hold off on immediately fixing your bike. It might have evidence we find useful, and your attorney should look at it first.
- Avoid giving recorded statements with insurance adjusters unless your attorney knows.
The sooner you hire a lawyer, the stronger your claim will be. Our firm can provide individualized advice about what steps you should take in a free consultation. You do not have to take on big insurance companies alone. Get a passionate motorcycle accident lawyer on your side.
