If you suffered injuries in a Bowling Green motorcycle crash, the Bowling Green motorcycle lawyers from Hughes & Coleman Injury Lawyers are here to help.
By knowing what to expect after a motorcycle wreck, you can help protect your right to recover compensation.
You should seek medical attention regardless of whether you feel injured. Your injuries can take hours or days to appear. If you fail to receive medical attention soon after the accident, you may be unable to link your injuries to the accident. This can make it difficult to recover the compensation you need.
The insurance company — yours or the other party’s insurer — will likely call you soon after your crash. The insurance adjuster may seem kind and helpful, but you need to have your guard up. The insurance company wants to save money; to accomplish this, the insurer may attempt to trick you into saying something incriminating to devalue or deny your claim.
You may receive a settlement offer soon after your accident occurs. This offer will likely be much less than you deserve. Do not accept any settlement offers without first speaking with your attorney. We will determine the value of your case and negotiate until the insurer issues you a fair settlement.
When we recover compensation on a Bowling Green injury case, the monetary award includes compensation to cover a wide range of damages. We will not know the exact damages you suffered until we thoroughly investigate your case. However, you can get an idea of the types of damages available by considering the most common damages recoverable in this type of case. These include:
Almost any accident-related expense or loss is compensable. We will collect your bills, receipts, and other documentation when we investigate your case. Some common economic damages include:
Pain and suffering and other emotional losses are noneconomic damages. There are no receipts or bills to place a dollar value on these losses, but we can help you put a fair value on them as a part of building a strong case. Pain and suffering damages are often the largest single type of damages an accident victim recovers. Noneconomic damages may include:
If your family member passed away from the injuries they suffered in a Bowling Green motorcycle crash, let us evaluate your situation. You may qualify to pursue damages through a wrongful death action, and we can file this type of civil suit for you. This type of action allows the surviving family of accident victims to recover compensation for expenses such as funeral and burial costs.
