Philadelphia Motorcycle Accident Lawyers

New Jersey and Pennsylvania Head and Brain Injury Lawyers

Riders know that motorcycles are the most vulnerable of the motorists on the road. Because of your love to ride, you also have to put up with the feeling of being a moving target. Because motorcycles do not have seat belts, a crash can throw you off your seat, which can result in serious injuries.  Approximately ten percent of all motorcycle accidents that occur in the U.S. result in death.

Motorcyclists have the same rights and responsibilities as other drivers on the road.  Collisions with trucks or automobiles cause many motorcycle accidents, where a negligent driver never even sees the motorcyclist.  Other accidents occur because of a crash with a fixed object. Our Philadelphia motorcycle accident attorneys fight for your rights so that you receive compensation for injuries sustained in all kinds of motorcycle accidents in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.

Approved Helmets Required

Many states, including New Jersey, require that all riders wear helmets.  Pennsylvania motorcyclists who are under age 21 must wear helmets, while those over the age of 21 have to wear helmets if they have had licenses for fewer than two calendar years or have not taken designated safety courses.  Ask our Montgomery County injury attorneys for the rules that apply in your state.  All helmets should be of the type approved by the Department of Transportation.

We Understand the Nature of Your Injuries

Our Philadelphia motorcycle accident lawyers have handled some of the most complex cases with successful outcomes. Your injuries may be severe, including the following:

• Fractures
• Burns and scarring
• Rib fractures
• Internal injuries
• Herniated disk in the neck or back
• Motorcycle-specific injuries can also include the following:
• Helmet crushing
• Skidding
• Sliding and dropping your bike
• Road rash
• Occipital fractures
• Injuries to your brain, including your temporal lobe and pre-cortical lobes

Catastrophic injuries can include brain damage and other neuropsychological injuries, as well as paraplegic injuries and orthopedic problems.  Your doctor may tell you that you need surgery and physical therapy.

All of this sounds new and foreign if you have never been in an accident before. However, these injuries, diagnostic tests, and therapies all have terms and conditions that our attorneys grasp. Understanding these is imperative to building a strong claim and case in order to fight for compensation.
