Information Provided by Chicago Car Accident Attorney Joseph M. Dooley
Chicago Motorcycle Accident Lawyer
In recent years, high gas prices and increasing environmental concerns have led to increasing numbers of motorcyclists on the road. While more cyclists means more awareness on the part of vehicle drivers, it also means more accidents. Because motorcycles have little to no protective features, even properly suited cyclists face serious injuries when involved in an accident. If you or a loved one has been injured or killed in a motorcycle accident, please call a skilled Chicago accident attorney as soon as possible.
Even if you are a cautious rider and wear all proper safety equipment, there is no way to completely protect yourself from reckless and negligent drivers. Unfortunately, while most motorcycle accidents are caused by the driver of the other vehicle involved, the cyclist is almost always the one who suffers the majority of the injuries. Common injuries that occur in these types of accidents include brain damage, disfigurement, coma, paralysis and death. When you or a family member has suffered any of these devastating consequences, it is critical you hold the responsible party liable for the damages with the help of a top Chicago accident lawyer.
Even if the other driver's insurance company seems to be working with you to cover all expenses, it is still usually beneficial to contact an experienced Chicago accident attorney. Many insurance companies rely on the average injury victim's lack of experience in these matters to result in a settlement that is much lower than it should be. When you have been victimized in a motorcycle accident, you don't just deserve compensation for the damage to your bike and for your current medical expenses. You also deserve payments for your future medical bills, the time you spent out of work during the medical treatment period, the suffering you have gone through, your lost self confidence related to any disfiguration, and more. When you work with the Law Office of Joseph M. Dooley, you can be certain that these expenses will be accounted for in your final settlement.
Just because you have been victimized by a serious accident does not mean that you should be willing to accept any less compensation then you deserve. If you or a loved one has been injured in a motorcycle accident, call me today and schedule a free initial consultation with a top Chicago accident lawyer.
