How Much Is My Connecticut Motorcycle Accident Claim Worth?
- Liability of the parties: If you are partially liable for your injuries, your settlement will be decreased.
- The nature and severity of your injuries: Motorcyclists have little protection from an impact, so motorcycle accidents often result in more serious injuries than car accidents and other motor vehicle collisions.
- Your prognosis for recovery: Longer recovery timelines and more intensive medical treatment tend to net higher settlements.
- Property damage: Your motorcycle may be totaled, and your other property may be damaged.
- Lost time from work: Your injuries might cause you to miss work and affect your ability to earn a living.
- The effects on your life: You are entitled to recover compensation for your pain and suffering and reduced quality of life.
Why Should I Hire an Attorney After a Motorcycle Accident in Connecticut?
In a motorcycle accident case, the opposing party will almost always have an attorney. Motorcycle accidents are complicated matters that involve dealing directly with insurance companies, which have experienced legal teams that will encourage you to settle for the least possible amount as quickly as possible. Having knowledgeable legal counsel in your corner can be critical to receiving the compensation you deserve after a motorcycle accident.
What Does a Motorcycle Accident Attorney Do?
- Investigating your motorcycle crash to determine how it happened, why, and who’s at fault
- Collecting critical evidence, such as police reports, witness statements, toxicology reports, video recordings, driver cell phone records, medical records, and damage to vehicles and other property
- Building a compelling legal case proving that another party’s negligence caused your motorcycle crash and injuries
- Defending you against shifting blame intended to derail your fight for compensation
- Negotiating with insurers on your behalf, protecting you from manipulation or pressure to accept a quick deal worth less than you deserve
- Filing a lawsuit and taking your motorcycle accident case to trial if you don’t receive a fair settlement offer
