Denver Motorcycle Accident Attorney: Injury Claims
The most common form of dangerous motorcycle accidents are those that involve drivers of regular passenger vehicles. The car driver may have sideswiped the motorcyclist or has rear-ended them or run into them while crossing an intersection. The contributing factors in such accidents can be negligence, speeding, dangerous driving, drunk driving or inattentive driving. With many drivers breaking the law through consuming too much alcohol and driving, or looking at text messages while driving, motorcyclists face dangerous risks when sharing the roads and highways in our area. In any case in which a car driver was responsible for an injury accident, contacting a skilled legal representative from Anderson, Hemmat & Levine, LLC is an urgent matter.
Motorcycle Accidents and Negligence
When a car driver has been negligent, whether through inattention or other contributing factor, a claim or lawsuit must be filed to recover compensation for damages for the injured victim. As motorcyclists are in extreme danger when hit by a car, the injuries sustained can be terrible and life-threatening. Sadly, in many cases the motorcyclist will suffer such severe injuries that they may never fully recover, such as in cases of brain damage or spinal damage. There are frequently severe road abrasions that can leave permanent scarring, or cases of fractures, loss of limb or those tragic cases in which the victim loses their lives.
The negligence must be proven in such cases, and there may be the necessity to get witness reports, police reports, or enlist an independent accident investigator when the liability is contested in the case. In many cases, there is no question involved and the case can proceed to a settlement. In cases in which the liability for the accident is challenged, our legal team will be well-prepared with full backup documentation in court to fight for the rights of our injured clients. Act quickly if you or a loved one has been injured in such an accident in order to ensure that the evidence can be obtained and preserved for documentation in the filing of your claim.
