Sacramento Motorcycle Accident Neck Injury Lawyer
Your motorcycle accident was an event you will never forget. Leaving you with a serious neck injury, you may be having a difficult time getting through the trauma brought on by the crash. Doctor visits and medical procedures can be expensive and can cause you to go into debt, adding hardship that gets in the way of your financial wellbeing.
Most accidents are caused by negligence. Whether you were struck by a speeding car or hit by a driver who was texting, you can file a personal injury claim against the person responsible to recoup your damages. With the help of a Sacramento motorcycle accident neck injury lawyer from Crowell Law Offices, you can take the necessary steps to recover the compensation you are entitled to.
Causes of Motorcycle Wrecks
Motorcycle accidents can happen for a variety of reasons:
- Unsafe Lane Changes – Failing to check blind spots or signal when changing lanes
- Speeding – Speeding reduces a driver’s reaction window, so the higher the speed, the greater the impact and injuries
- Driving Under the Influence – Drivers who cause accidents because they were driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs may face both civil and criminal liability
- Sudden Stops – Vehicles following too closely can easily cause rear-end accidents
- Left-Turn Accidents – Vehicles failing to yield or stop at signs and traffic signals or misjudging making a left turn
- Dangerous Road Conditions – Potholes, crumbling pavement, debris, and lack of necessary signage and signals
- Motorcycle Defective Parts – Manufacturers can be held liable for defective motorcycle parts that cause neck injuries and whiplash
Insurance and Your Neck Injury
Motorcyclists are often falsely portrayed as reckless drivers who are automatically responsible for a crash. These unfounded claims can give an insurance company ammunition to downplay your neck injury and blame you for what happened so that they can get out of paying you.
