Motorcycle Accidents

Have you been in a motorcycle, scooter or bicycle accident? Have you suffered serious injuries? Have you lost a loved one who was struck while riding a motorcycle?

Motorcycle accidents usually involve substantial injuries and damages to the rider and the motorcycle. Because motorcycles provide little protection, many motorcycle accidents result in catastrophic injuries such as traumatic brain injury or the wrongful death of the motorcycle operator.

If you have been seriously injured or lost someone you love in a motorcycle accident, it is important to work with a law firm you can trust to defend your interests and help you obtain the compensation you deserve. At Joel L. Katz, L.L.C., our Annapolis motorcycle accident lawyers have been helping injured clients in area Maryland communities such as Centreville for more than 40 years.

Causes of Motorcycle Accidents

When cars or trucks collide with motorcycles, the cause can usually be traced back to the driver not seeing the motorcycle. A car driver may change lanes in the path of a motorcycle, fail to yield the right of way or turn left into a motorcycle at an intersection, all because he or she fails to see the motorcycle.

Compensation for Motorcycle Injuries

There is not the bias against motorcyclists that many people claim. In many cases, in fact, juries are sympathetic to injured motorcyclists. Especially when an accident is caused by the other driver failing to see the motorcycle, a jury will usually favor the motorcyclist.

It is essential to work with a legal team that will research your case, make sure your injuries are well-documented and provide strategic, aggressive legal representation to help you obtain full and fair compensation for the injuries you have suffered. We also represent families of motorcycle accident victims in wrongful death actions.

Before you speak with any insurance companies, it is imperative that you speak with our attorneys for guidance. Most likely, the insurance company contacting you is not looking out for your best interest.
