Uninsured Motorist Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcycle accidents can be a traumatic experience. As motorcyclists struggle to recover from injuries, they may be left dealing with mounding medical bills and motorcycle damages. When this occurs, it is natural to want the driver who is responsible to pay for these sudden expenses – but what if the driver who hit you was uninsured? Who will compensate you for your injuries and for your suffering?

Some states offer greater level of protection from uninsured or under-insured motorists. For the individual who has been injured in an uninsured or under-insured accident, compensation may be provided in excess of the at-fault driver's liability insurance.

In the past many consumers were denied the full amount of compensation to which they were entitled due to inadequacies in the insurance law. Many states have amended the law to close important loopholes that prevented consumers from obtaining the full compensation to which they were entitled.

If you own uninsured or under-insured motorist insurance, your attorney may be able to file a claim with your insurance company. This will allow you to receive money FAST and may avoid any unnecessary red tape.

A personal injury attorney with extensive knowledge of your state's insurance laws can help navigate you through this difficult time. Insurance laws can be confusing, and insurance companies understand this and are willing to offer motorcycle accident victims a fraction of what they deserve. In addition, many insurance companies will attempt to deny your claims – even when they are legally bound to compensate you. When this occurs, your personal injury attorney will ensure that you receive the maximum compensation – regardless of your situation.
