Motorcycles provide a means of transportation. But, they also offer riders a sense of freedom and connection with the road. That is why there are many who are passionate about motorcycles and riding. Given the exposure, though, riding a motorcycle comes with a heightened degree of risk. Florida in 2021, according to the National Safety Council, led the nation in motorcycle deaths. When crashes occur, riders often suffer severe injuries because motorcycles obviously cannot have the same level of crash protection devices as cars and SUVs. Motorcycle crash victims often face a daunting journey through medical recovery and financial uncertainty. This is where the role of a skilled motorcycle accident lawyer becomes invaluable. At Hersh Kirtman Injury Law, we stand by your side to guide you through the legal processes, ensuring you are not alone in this difficult time. Our Deerfield Beach motorcycle accident attorneys remain dedicated to navigating you through an uncertain process, seeking to recover for the injuries and damages you suffered.
When a motorcycle crash is caused by another’s negligence, injured riders have the right to seek compensation for damages, which includes medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering, among other things. The legal process involves numerous steps, which include opening insurance claims, tracking medical treatment, gathering evidence, and, in some cases, filing personal injury lawsuits or wrongful death lawsuits. Our role is to assist you and represent your interests through this multifaceted process.
The path to justice for motorcycle accident victims may be challenging. Defendants and insurance companies use many tactics to avoid or limit their exposure and responsibility to the victim. They attack motorcycle riders and attempt to place blame on them. They dispute whether injuries are real or caused by the crash. They fight liability. Our team of motorcycle accident attorneys at Hersh Kirtman Injury Law are adept at handling these complexities, ensuring your rights are protected and your voice is heard.
We handle the following aspects of your motorcycle accident claim to increase your chances of success:
In most instances, the accused party denies responsibility, and even when they admit some fault, they often try to shift blame onto you or others, aiming to lessen their own liability. This is especially so given Florida’s comparative fault laws, where any negligence assigned to you or third parties diminishes the amount the defendant is required to pay. As a result, not only do you have the task of proving your claim, but you also might have to counter claims alleging your own fault. Florida’s comparative fault laws were overhauled in 2023, resulting in greater risk to victims who may have some responsibility in the crash. Our motorcycle accident lawyers are committed to diligently collecting the required evidence to establish your case and to vigorously fight any claims suggesting your shared responsibility in the incident.
Florida is one of the most dangerous states for motorcyclists, with almost 400,000 collisions in 2022. Many factors contribute to motorcycle accidents, including the following:
Riders are especially susceptible to catastrophic injuries in accidents caused by negligence, as they have less protection than a passenger vehicle. In fact, per miles traveled, motorcyclist fatalities occurred almost 28 times more frequently than passenger vehicle occupant fatalities in collisions in 2020. If you suffered injuries due to negligence, speak with the motorcycle accident attorneys at Hersh Kirtman Injury Law to assess liability on your behalf and seek the compensation you deserve for your losses.
