Jasper Motorcycle Accident Lawyer

Talk to a Jasper motorcycle accident lawyer if you have experienced an accident. The law stipulates that the at-fault’s insurance company should compensate you for your injuries. Insurance companies can do everything in their power to deny your claim.

You need concrete evidence to support your allegations to win the case. You can also prove that the at-fault party was liable for your injuries. If the insurance company fails to offer a fair settlement, file a civil lawsuit against the responsible party.

Why Insurance Companies Deny Claims

It all boils down to one thing – maximization of profit for the shareholders. The model of insurance companies is they benefit from their member’s contributions. But these companies incur losses whenever they have to settle a claim on behalf of their members. Insurance companies prioritize the goals of their shareholders above everybody else.

What To Do After an Accident

You should provide medical assistance or call for medical assistance to help the accident victims. If you leave the accident scene without providing your details, you risk becoming a hit-and-run suspect.

The law requires that you call the authorities to the accident scene if the accident has caused bodily injury. To be safe, report the accident even if there are no visible signs of physical injury. Insurance companies might use the failure to report the accident to deny you claims.

You should take pictures of your injuries and the general accident scene if you are able to do so. Record the details and statements of any witness of the crash. These pieces of evidence can be valuable in proving liability in the case.

Avoid Talking to Insurance Companies After the Accident

A Jasper motorcycle accident lawyer strongly recommends that you delegate the task of communicating with insurance companies to an attorney. Insurance companies can rush to send their representative to talk to you after the crash. The representative can come off as someone concerned about your well-being. But that is not the case.

The main objective of the representative can be to persuade you into accepting a settlement offer. Insurance companies know that it is difficult to know the true extent of your injuries a few days after the accident. So, their representative can try and make their offer seem grand so that you accept it. This is just a tactic to short-change you.

Save yourself the trouble by letting a professional talk to the insurance companies on your behalf.

Types of Injuries in a Motorcycle Accident

Motorcycles lack safety features like airbags to protect you during accidents. Therefore, it is easy to get serious injuries even in minor accidents. Ensure that you have your helmet and other protective gear while on the road to protect yourself. 

Some of the injuries you can sustain in an accident include:

  • Traumatic Injury: Traumatic injuries such as concussions and brain injuries result from hitting your head during an accident. Traumatic injuries are serious since they have long-term effects. They can have secondary effects on other parts of your body.
  • Road Rash: These are tears to the skin that result from skidding on roads. The scars from road rash are susceptible to infections, and they are very painful.
  • Amputation of Limbs: In significant accidents, you may lose an arm or leg due to being cut by parts of your motorcycle or parts of the other automobile in the crash.
  • Broken Bones: Seek medical attention after an accident or within a reasonable period. Some of your injuries may be invisible, but they have serious effects. A comprehensive medical evaluation can reveal these injuries and their extent early on.

Negligence

Negligence is an integral component of personal injury cases. It is upon you to prove that another party was negligent during the accident. Investigating the cause of the accident is the best point to start from when trying to prove negligence. This is because the cause of an accident can reveal who is responsible for the negligence.

Once you know who is responsible, you need to prove these elements of negligence in the case:

  • The negligent party owed you a duty of care.
  • The negligent party breached this duty of care toward you.
  • The breach of duty resulted in your injuries.
  • You incurred damages because of the injuries.

The evidence you gather in investigating the accident can help you prove these elements.

Legal Representation

Getting a lawyer to represent you in a motorcycle accident case is an important choice. The law does not bar you from recovering damages on the status of your legal representation in these cases. However, insurance companies are very cunning. Working with a professional who can outmaneuver their traps in these cases is better.

The Statute of Limitations

Waiting for too long to file claims might work against you in the long run. There is a statute of limitations for motorcycle accident cases that require victims to file claims within two years. The countdown starts from the date of the accident.
