Getting the Legal Perspective on Motorcycle Accidents – Audio Interview
In this podcast episode of Ask The Hammer, Darryl Isaacs and three other attorneys from Isaacs & Isaacs Personal Injury Lawyers (all bikers) review how motorcycle accident lawsuits work in this podcast episode. Listen below.
How to Determine Liability
In many situations, the driver of another vehicle is at-fault in a motorcycle accident. Other times, the involved parties may share fault for the accident. If both parties are determined to be partly at fault, one or both could be eligible for damages calculated on a percentage basis.
In Ohio, a rule called contributory fault (Ohio Rev. Code § 2315.33) is used to allocate damages when multiple people share the blame. Under this law, your compensation amount will be reduced by the percentage of fault you are assigned for the accident. So, if you receive a settlement of $100,000 but were deemed to be 25% at fault for your accident, your settlement amount will be reduced by 25%, leaving you with $75,000.
Usually, a police accident report or an insurance adjuster will determine who is to blame for your motorcycle accident and how much each party is responsible for the accident. If you believe you were assigned an unfair portion of fault, your attorney may need to fight on your behalf and present evidence to help your case.

How Can Isaacs & Isaacs Personal Injury Lawyers Help You?
Motorcycle accidents are serious business. Recovery may take months or sometimes years. The situation might get even worse if you were the designated financial provider for your family and are unable to return to work in the same capacity.
You may even be forced to get a new job that pays less, or you may not be able to work at all. You may also have mounting medical costs from the accident. This is a financial situation no one wants to find themselves in.
Your Cincinnati motorcycle accident lawyer will take legal action to seek compensation from the at-fault party’s insurance company so you can focus on your rehabilitation. Our attorneys at Isaacs & Isaacs Personal Injury Lawyers are eager to help you regain your life.
If we cannot get a favorable settlement from the insurance company, we are prepared to take your case to court. To better prepare you for this situation, our team has a mock courtroom available to our clients, along with an in-house litigation team.

No Fees Unless We Settle or Win Your Case
You don’t have to pay your Cincinnati personal injury lawyer unless they win or settle your case.

We’ll Help You File Your Claim Right Away
Any lawsuit stemming from an injury or accident must be brought to the civil court system within a specific amount of time, under a legal regulation known as the statute of limitations.
According to Ohio Revised Code Section 2305.10, the statute of limitations for filing a personal injury lawsuit related to a motorcycle accident is two years from the date of the accident.
There are, however, exceptions based on individual circumstances. The legal deadline, for example, may differ based on the type of personal injury claim. Your attorney will be able to provide more information if your case does not fall under the two-year statute of limitations.
