If you have been injured in a motorcycle accident, there are many things you need to know and many steps you must take to protect your rights. You should consult with a personal injury lawyer about the facts of your particular case. Steve Lawler is a motorcycle rider, and is familiar with the many aspects of motorcycle travel that are different from cars. This is a distinct advantage over insurance adjusters who do not ride and do not understand the differences.

If someone else was at fault for the motorcycle accident, then you may be entitled to recover for your injuries. Not wearing a helmet, however, may affect the injuries for which you can recover. You may not be able to recover for certain injuries if your failure to wear a helmet can be shown to have caused or aggravated those injuries. This is very case specific and can be discussed in more detail during your free consultation with an attorney.

You can make a claim against the driver who caused your motorcycle accident even if you did not carry insurance. Typically, you will not have personal injury protection benefits to pay for your medical bills following a motorcycle crash. You may be able to recover the amount of the bills from the at-fault driver, but that may take some time. In the meantime, your motorcycle accident attorney may be able to work with you medical providers to delay payment of the bills until your claim is completed. This means you get medical treatment without having to pay until your claim is settled or resolved.

Your Lawler Firm personal injury lawyer will make every effort to ensure that the insurance companies are paying your medical and wage loss benefits properly, that your are able to receive medical treatment for your injuries with physicians who are willing to wait until the conclusion of your claim to be paid, and most importantly will work diligently for you to ensure that you are fairly and justly compensated for your injuries. You pay no fees or costs unless you recover from the adverse party.

Time is of the essence following any car accident. Investigation must be done quickly to ensure preservation of the evidence and identification of witnesses. Additionally, each claim has a time limit or statute of limitations. If you wait to long, you will lose the ability to make your claim in court.
