Your lawyers' investigative team is responsible for researching the events involved in a
motorcycle accident to determine if there is sufficient cause to file a lawsuit to claim damages. Experienced lawyers are able to evaluate the information gathered, and determine the extent of damage and the value of the loss suffered by the claimant.
Of the many factors that need to be investigated the most common ones include:
- Were there any defects in the roadway designs?
- What were the weather conditions?
- Were there any defects in the motorcycle's brakes or tires, helmets, or other protective gear?
- Was the other driver negligent in any way, including recklessness, distraction, or intoxication?
- Were there other contributing factors, such as a child, animal or object suddenly entering the roadway?
One common mistake is a bias that often presumes motorcyclists are at fault in accidents involving other motorists. But, since licensed motorcyclists are legal drivers of legal vehicles, they have the same rights as other drivers, as well as responsibilities. Experienced motorcycle accident lawyers can help you establish your credibility and preserve your rights, as well as your responsibilities, if you are the victim of a motorcycle accident.
