Hillsborough County Motorcycle Accident Lawyer

OVER $1 BILLION IN RECOVERIES FOR OUR CLIENTS

Motorcycling is a popular recreational activity both in and around Hillsborough County. Although riding a motorbike can be pleasurable, when a crash occurs, it can be a nightmare.

Unfortunately, motorcycle operators and their passengers are especially vulnerable in the event of a collision. Bikes do not offer their riders much in the way of safety or protection, and helmets can crack in an accident. As a result, motorcycle accident victims may experience head trauma, broken bones, and other serious injuries.

If you or someone you love suffered an injury in a motorcycle accident caused by someone else’s negligence, you may be able to recover compensation with help from an experienced personal injury attorney. A Hillsborough County motorcycle accident lawyer could determine who or what caused your accident and help you file a claim for damages against the responsible party.

Who is Eligible to File a Motorcycle Accident Claim?

Motorcycle operators who suffer injuries in an accident could file a personal injury claim against a negligent driver who acted unreasonably under the circumstances. Negligence could include any of the following:

  • Intoxicated or drunk driving
  • Disobeying traffic laws
  • Distracted driving (i.e. improper cell phone use while driving)
  • Failing to take the weather or traffic conditions into account

A motorcycle accident attorney in Hillsborough County can help injured motorcycle operators determine if they should file an injury claim against another driver.

Motorcycle Passenger Lawsuits

Similarly, motorcycle passengers who suffer injuries in an accident may be able to file a claim against both the operator of the motorcycle and any other driver who contributed to the collision. Individuals who operate motorcycles owe a duty to their passengers to drive in a safe and proper manner. Similarly, the drivers of other vehicles owe a duty to operate their vehicles reasonably under the circumstances.

If a motorcycle passenger can show that the operator – or some other driver – caused the accident, then they could be eligible to pursue financial recovery for their injuries. A motorbike accident attorney in Hillsborough County can determine if a motorcycle passenger might be eligible to file a personal injury claim for damages.

Compensatory Damages in Motorcycle Accident Cases

If someone else caused the motorcycle accident, then the accident victim could make a claim for damages. Accident victims typically have four years from the date of their accident to file a damage lawsuit. If they wait too long, the court can dismiss their lawsuit, and they will not be eligible to recover compensation for their injuries.

Assuming the motorcycle accident and the injuries are related in some way, accident victims could pursue damages for losses such which they experience as a result of the injuries suffered in their motorcycle accident. Recoverable damages can include compensation for medical expenses, loss of income, loss of enjoyment, suffering, pain, and more.

A Hillsborough County motorcycle accident attorney could help accident victims identify and calculate a fair value for all of their damages.
