Tempe Motorcycle Accident Lawyer
Many people ride motorcycles due to the feeling of freedom they offer, but most riders acknowledge that they’re taking a risk whenever they get on their bike. Even when armed with safety gear and years of safe riding, accidents can happen. Riders aren’t as protected as drivers, so when they get hit by a car, the results can be deadly. Working with our Tempe, AZ motorcycle accident lawyer can make a difference! Call SL Chapman Trial Lawyers today to get the process started.
Tempe, AZ Motorcycle Accident Lawyer
Motorcycle accidents can have various causes, but usually they’re caused by car or truck drivers who don’t see riders. Motorcycles can be harder to detect at night or during poor weather conditions, especially in blind spots. However, even during the day, accidents can happen. Many drivers can get distracted, and a split moment of lost concentration can prove to be fatal. Unlike car-on-car crashes, a car-on-motorcycle crash can send the rider flying, resulting in them hitting the asphalt hard.
Injuries like lacerations, road rash, burns, and broken bones are common. While most riders can recover from these injuries, other injuries like traumatic brain injuries can result in lifelong damage or disfigurement. In the most severe cases, an accident can also lead to wrongful death.
Whether you’re the victim or a family member of the victim, help is available. Our legal team will fight to make sure you receive the maximum compensation needed for your situation. Medical care is expensive, especially if the accident means months or years of recovery. Besides medical expenses, our team can help you secure compensation for lost wages, disability, and pain and suffering. We know how to negotiate and when to apply legal pressure.
