Motorcycle Accidents

Tampa Motorcycle Accident Lawyer

While motorcycles and automobiles share similarities in that they both travel on Florida streets, highways and rural roads, a motorcycle accident differs significantly from a car crash. The injuries from a motorbike crash more often tend to be catastrophic. Furthermore, some insurers and juries seem to believe that motorcyclists should share more of the liability themselves, due to the inherent risks involved in motorcycling.

Catastrophic Injuries, Catastrophic Losses

Brain injury, spinal cord injury, skin burns (road rash), leg or foot fractures (which often involve the tibia, fibula, or femur bones), and serious back and neck injuries are common results of serious motorcycle crashes.

After a serious injury, a motorcycle accident victim is likely to be unable to work for some time. He or she will likely require extensive medical care and physical therapy. Special adaptive equipment such as a cane, walker, or a wheelchair may become necessities. Getting to doctors' appointments may result in significant expenses. If a brain injury or spinal cord injury is severe, the person may never be able to work as before.

Tough Insurance Matters are Challenges we Willingly Take On

Insurance issues can be a major hindrance to motorcycle accident victims. Many motorcyclists have not elected PIP insurance, so they have less coverage than drivers of automobiles do. Our lawyers are devoted to helping each client recover the compensation needed after a motorcycle accident.
