What are some common reasons motorcyclists are injured?
Common reasons motorcyclists are hurt in accidents involving negligence are drunk driving, distracted drivers, dangerous road conditions, mechanical errors, manufacturing errors, and reckless drivers.
What should I do immediately following my motorcycle collision?
It’s very important to seek medical attention. If you’re unable to speak with a lawyer right away, don’t answer any questions about the crash until you have done so. If possible, document the scene of your wreck and gather evidence, such as witness statements, police reports, and medical documentation.
Should I speak with insurance companies after my Baton Rouge motorcycle crash?
You can notify your insurance company that you’ve been involved in a wreck, but don’t answer any of their questions about the crash or allow them to record your statements. These are the first things they’ll request, but submitting to them isn’t often a good idea. Your attorney can speak with insurers on your behalf.
How long do I have to file a personal injury case for a motorcycle wreck in Louisiana?
When filing for personal injury compensation for a motorcycle wreck in Louisiana, you have only one year from the date of the accident.
