What is a Motorcycle Accident?
Understanding Personal Injury Law
Personal injury law is a type of civil litigation that involves an injury to a person's body, mind or emotions. Personal injuries can result from negligence, intentional acts and/or accidents. A personal injury case typically involves damages for medical bills and lost wages as well as pain and suffering caused by the incident.
Motorcycle accidents can happen in a variety of ways, but they usually involve one or more vehicles colliding with a motorcycle. The most common types of motorcycle accidents include:
-
Head-on collisions. This is the most dangerous type of accident for motorcyclists because it puts them at risk for serious injury or death. It's also possible for the rider to be thrown from their bike during this type of collision, which means they could suffer additional injuries from falling onto pavement or other objects like trees or cars (or even other motorcycles).
-
Rear-end collisions. These happen when another driver rear-ends your bike from behind while you're stopped at an intersection or stop sign--or even if you're driving slowly through traffic and someone hits you from behind at high speeds! If this happens without warning, there isn't much time for anyone involved in order to react safely before impact occurs; however, wearing protective gear such as helmets can help reduce damage sustained by riders during these types of accidents since many injuries result directly from impact forces rather than actual contact between bodies themselves (e.,g., broken bones).
Common Injuries from Motorcycle Accidents
-
Head and brain injuries. Motorcyclists who are involved in accidents often suffer serious head and brain injuries, including concussions, skull fractures and traumatic brain injury (TBI). These types of injuries can be life-threatening if not treated immediately.
-
Broken bones. The impact of a crash can cause broken bones that require surgery or other corrective procedures to heal properly.
-
Road rash. Motorcycle riders often suffer road rash--skin damage caused by contact with asphalt or other surfaces during an accident--which requires medical attention to prevent infection and ensure proper healing of the affected area.
-
Document the scene.
-
Take pictures of any damage to vehicles and property. If there are injuries, take pictures of those as well. This will help you later when filing an insurance claim and/or lawsuit against another party in the event that they are at fault for your injuries.
-
Seek medical attention immediately after any type of accident, even if it seems like nothing serious happened because sometimes injuries can be more severe than they appear at first glance (for example, a broken wrist might not be noticeable until later when swelling sets in). You should also seek treatment if you feel pain or discomfort anywhere on your body after an accident; this could mean that there's internal bleeding going on inside one of your organs which could lead to serious complications later if left untreated.
What to Do After a Motorcycle Accident
The Benefits of Hiring a Personal Injury Attorney
If you've been injured in a motorcycle accident in Texas, it's important to hire a personal injury attorney who is experienced in helping people like you. A good attorney will have the expertise and knowledge needed to ensure that your rights are protected.
A personal injury lawyer can also help you navigate the legal system so that it doesn't become overwhelming for you. They'll know how insurance companies operate and what they're likely to do when dealing with claims from their customers. This gives them an advantage when negotiating settlements or going before a judge if necessary.
Causation refers to whether or not there was adequate evidence presented during trial that proves beyond reasonable doubt that one party caused another party's injuries--in this case: whether or not someone else was at fault for causing your accident? Damages refers specifically how much money should be paid out based on those injuries sustained during said incident; such things include medical bills from doctors visits over time until full recovery occurs. The experienced lawyers at BLW Legal Group can help you prove causation and recover damages.
