Bikers are among the most vulnerable motor vehicle operators on the roadway. Jeans, chaps and a helmet are the only things shielding the human body from asphalt. It is no wonder that so many victims of accidents involving motorcycles are severely injured, disabled or killed as a result of motorcycle crashes.
Accidents can occur as a result of equipment failure, roadway design, obstructions of roadways, improper maintenance of roadways and driver behavior. An experienced Raleigh motorcycle accident lawyer and an investigator are necessary in order to pinpoint the precise factors that contributed to a motorcycle accident and injury.
The team at Smyth & Cioffi, LLP understand that even the safest motorcycle rider can get involved in a serious accident. Our Raleigh motorcycle accident attorneys work with doctors who evaluate the medical records, accountants who project the costs associated with healing or surviving these injuries, investigators who explore the scene of the accident and accident reconstruction experts who provide simulations of how the accident could have occurred. We gather as much evidence as possible and conduct the appropriate legal research to ensure that our client's rights are protected.
Take stock of your current situation. After you have been injured, it is likely that every movement is painful. Family members must find ways to help pay accumulating medical bills. If your vehicle has been totaled, there are vehicle repair or replacement costs. There are no guarantees that you will get to keep your job. Insurance takes time, and in many cases, people feel like insurance companies low-ball their initial offers.
A motorcycle accident attorney at the law office of Smyth & Cioffi can help you to evaluate your situation and pinpoint who or what was actually at fault. However, the statute of limitations limits the amount of time you have to file your claim. Our attorneys work hard to collect evidence, including pictures from the scene of the accident and statements made by eyewitnesses, to present a compelling case to opposing counsel or the jury panel. Our goal is to help you achieve the best possible results in light of your current circumstances.
