Motorcycle Crash FAQ’s
Q: What should I do if I am involved in a motorcycle crash?
A: If you are involved in a motorcycle crash, the first thing you should do is call 911. Even if you feel fine, you need to be evaluated by a medical professional for signs of head trauma or other life threatening injuries. In addition to seeking medical attention, it is important to have the police fill out a police report after your accident. This will help your attorney in establishing “fault” for the accident and may help you obtain compensation for your injuries and damages. If you are able to, be sure to get the name, number, insurance information and license plate number of the other drivers as well.
Q: Should I contact my insurance company after a motorcycle accident---even if it wasn’t my fault?
A: YES! Most insurance companies require their policy holders to notify them after any motorcycle accident and failure to do so can result in a claim denial. In addition to contacting your insurance company, it is also important to contact a Colorado motorcycle accident attorney who specializes in motorcycle accidents and their injuries.
Q: I am not sure I want to file a lawsuit after my motorcycle accident, should I still contact an attorney?
A: Yes. Hiring an attorney is not the same thing as filing a lawsuit and your attorney will be able to discuss all of your legal options with you. Your attorney may be able to assist you in negotiating with insurance companies, filing for disability benefits and obtaining workman’s compensation if you are eligible. In addition, your attorney will be able to ensure that you do not miss any critical deadlines for filing a claim should you decide to pursue that route.
Q: What if I was involved in a single motorcycle accident? Why do I need to call a Colorado personal injury lawyer?
A: Even if you were involved in a single motorcycle accident, your Colorado motorcycle accident lawyer may be able to determine if another party was responsible for your accident and your injuries. If brake failure, tire failure or any component on the motorcycle failed unnecessarily, the manufacturer or designer may be liable. In addition, if improper roadway maintenance contributed to your accident, you may also be able file a lawsuit. An experienced and aggressive Colorado motorcycle accident attorney will be able to investigate all angles of your accident to obtain the compensation you deserve after a motorcycle accident.
