STEPS AFTER A ROCKMART MOTORCYCLE COLLISION
First, never admit fault, and avoid speaking with the at-fault driver.
Next, these are some simple steps you can take, including:
-
STEP 1: Contact Appropriate People. Immediately contact 911 and notify emergency personnel so the scene can be documented, witness statements taken, and evidence preserved. In the coming days, notify your motorcycle insurance carrier, health insurer, and employer.
-
STEP 2: Seek Medical Attention. Whether at an ER or at an urgent care, it’s important to seek immediate medical attention. Schedule a timely follow-up with your primary care physician, report all symptoms, and follow all recommendations. Getting healthy should be your number one goal, and receiving timely medical treatment puts you on that path.
-
STEP 3: Document Everything. Keep accurate and organized records, including a copy of the police report, any witness information, the other driver’s contact information, insurance policy numbers and claim numbers, and medical treatment providers.
The steps immediately after a motorcycle wreck can be important for your health and eventual resolution of your claim. An experienced motorcycle wreck attorney can take much of these items off your plate so you can focus on what’s important – getting your health back. (Learn more @ Car Accident FAQ)
GETTING HEALTHY AND
GETTING COMPENSATED
Seeking timely and appropriate medical treatment is the first and most important goal, regardless of who is “at fault” and whether insurance will cover the bills.
To achieve this goal, it’s important you (1) seek immediate treatment; (2) report all of your symptoms, completely; (3) do what your doctor tells you to do, when they say to do it; (4) use your health insurance to cover costs. (Learn more @ Medical Treatment FAQ)
Insurance companies are not in the business of giving money away. And, the more you worry about trying to settle an insurance claim on your own, the more frustrated and disappointed you will become.
You should entrust an skill motorcycle attorney to assist you with this process so you can focus on your physical and mental health.
HOW A ROCKMART MOTORCYCLE WRECK LAWYER CAN HELP
Our skilled motorcycle accident injury attorney can help you navigate these uncertain waters.
For instance, an experienced motorcycle attorney can identify all of the potentially responsible parties who caused or contributed to your injuries. This obviously includes the other driver(s). But, there can be less obvious but responsible parties that only a thoughtful investigation can uncover, including:
-
Landowners (i.e. causing debris to be in roadway);
-
Government Entities (due to defects or poorly maintained roadways);
-
Mechanics or Technicians (for negligently serviced vehicles and/or motorcycle).
We can handle the day-to-day stress that you won’t even know about. This includes preserving evidence, performing an investigation, talk to eye witnesses, responding to the insurance adjuster’s daily calls and letters, assisting with any property damage claims, and a multitude of other tasks. (Learn more @ Accident Investigation FAQ)
Our Rockmart motorcycle lawyer can also help you with your treatment, coordinate with your medical providers and health insurers, as well as identify and manage any medical liens. (Learn more @ Health Insurance & Subrogation FAQ)
Finally, we can help you get the compensation you deserve for what you’ve lost. (Learn more @ Compensation & Damages FAQ)
This can include permanent injuries, disfigurement, and amputation, and your injuries are compensable in many ways:
-
Past and Future Medical Expenses (Learn more @ Medical Expenses FAQ);
-
Past and Future Lost Wages (Learn more @ Lost Wages FAQ);
-
Past and Future Pain and Suffering (Learn more @ Pain and Suffering FAQ);
If you’re married and your injuries have significantly affected your marital relationship, your spouse is entitled to pursue a loss of consortium claim as well. (Learn more @ Loss of Consortium FAQ).
