Drivers are usually aware of cars and other large vehicles on the road, but they tend to overlook motorcycles and their riders. When a car collides with a motorcycle, the motorist may claim that they did not see the motorcycle until after the accident. Drivers may also notice nearby motorcycles, but fail to judge their speeds correctly, which can result in devastating crashes. In many motorcycle accidents, the biker is a victim of the other driver acting negligently.
A motorcycle accident can put the rider in very tough physical, emotional and financial situations. The biker may have severe injuries that require intensive medical treatment. The negligent individual may also try to deny responsibility, or the insurance company might refuse to provide coverage for the injured biker. In situations like these, motorcycle accident victims may benefit from the legal assistance of our Columbia injury lawyers. They will work for your right to gain compensation by pursuing legal action, which may grant the motorcyclist or their loved ones recoveries for the following:
We understand and care that when an injury occurs people are concerned about medical expenses, lost income, and compensation for their pain and suffering and other damages. We can put our experience to work immediately toward helping victims of careless or wrongful conduct obtain prompt and appropriate compensation.
We share the road with many different vehicles, and drivers must respect and be aware of all of these vehicles, including motorcycles. Motorcycles give riders the ability to travel the same speeds as cars and other automobiles, but do not offer as much protection for riders. When motorcycles are involved in accidents, riders often suffer catastrophic injuries and are the victims of fatal accidents. The Columbia injury attorneys at Proffitt & Cox, LLP are committed to upholding the rights of motorcycle accidents victims and their families to seek compensation from those responsible for acting negligently in the events leading up to the accident.
We offer free initial consultations for all injury cases. We handle injury cases on a contingency fee basis which means that our fees are a percentage of what we recover for you. You will not owe us any attorney’s fees in such cases unless we are successful in obtaining compensation on your behalf.
