Helping You Recover From a Motorcycle Accident
Riding a motorcycle shouldn't be dangerous if everyone on the road is behaving safely. But on a smaller vehicle that doesn't surround you on all sides like a car does, the impact of even a relatively low-speed accident can be extremely serious.
At the Seigel Law Firm LLC, our attorneys pursue compensation for people who have been injured in motorcycle accidents due to the negligence of other drivers. Contact us to schedule a free initial consultation with an experienced New Jersey personal injury lawyer.
Pursuing All Options for Immediate Medical Care
One unfortunate aspect of New Jersey's personal injury protection (PIP) law is that it does not apply to people who have car insurance but are injured while riding their motorcycles. That means that if you were injured in a motorcycle crash, your auto insurance company may not cover your medical bills.
Your auto or motorcycle insurance policy will not pay for your medical bills, but our attorneys will explore all options for payment of your medical bills.
Some doctors and other medical professionals will provide their services without expecting to get paid until your personal injury case is over. Based on our long experience and reputation in Bergen County, Passaic County and throughout northern New Jersey, we can refer you to excellent medical providers.
Our firm will do everything we can to ensure that you do not have to settle for less compensation than you deserve for your motorcycle accident injuries just so you can afford short-term medical costs.
Demanding Accountability From Inattentive Drivers
While some motorcycle accidents are caused by unsafe behavior on the part of the motorcyclist, a large portion are caused when car and truck drivers fail to consider the possibility that there may be a motorcycle in their blind spot before making a left hand turn or taking some other action.
Motorcycles have just as much a right to be on the road as cars and trucks. "Not seeing you" isn't an excuse for causing a motorcycle accident. If you've been injured, contact us to discuss how we can help you pursue the compensation you deserve.
