Questions
What immediate steps should I take after a motorcycle accident?
Prioritize medical care, document the scene with photos, collect witness information, and contact law enforcement. Avoid speaking to insurance adjusters before consulting an attorney.
How does uninsured motorist coverage protect me?
UM coverage allows you to claim compensation from your own insurer when the at-fault driver lacks insurance, covering medical expenses and lost wages.
Can I recover damages if partially at fault?
California's comparative negligence law permits partial recovery, though compensation reduces proportionally to your assigned fault percentage.
What distinguishes your firm in motorcycle cases?
Our specialized focus on motorcyclist injuries, combined with accident reconstruction expertise and a history of challenging large insurers, maximizes case value.
How are attorney fees structured?
Contingency fees apply – payment only occurs upon successful case resolution, calculated as a percentage of recovered compensation.
What if the accident caused permanent disability?
We specialize in securing structured settlements for long-term financial security, addressing future medical needs and quality-of-life considerations.
