Motorcycle accidents can be devastating. Obviously, when a motorcyclist is in an accident, they do not have the advantage of being surrounded and protected by a steel cage or airbags. As a result, injuries in motorcycle accidents can be much worse that auto accidents. Making matters worse, motorcyclists are unfairly stereotyped as being “dangerous” or “risk takers” and the cause of the accident. Right or wrong, that is a challenge you or your loved one will face if they have been injured by the fault of another in a motorcycle accident in Florida. Therefore, it is important that you have experienced motorcycle accident attorneys helping you.

LeavenLaw’s civil trial attorneys represent motorcycle accident victims throughout the state of Florida. If you or a family member or friend have been seriously injured in a motorcycle accident, call the injury attorneys at LeavenLaw to schedule a free consultation today.

Typical Motorcycle Collision Injuries

If you or a loved one are involved in a motorcycle accident, typically the injured party will suffer from more than one type of injury. Additionally, the severity of your injuries is likely more and in some cases may result in death. The most common injuries resulting from a motorcycle accident are:

  • Road Rash: sliding across the ground after being in a motorcycle accident will frequently lead to serious skin abrasions more commonly know as “road rash.”
  • Fractured or Broken Bones: given the speed and likelihood of collision with many hard objects, broken bones are common in motorcycle accidents.
  • Loss of Limb: serious motorcycle accidents can result in the need to remove an arm or leg.
  • Back injury: it is common knowledge that motorcycle accidents can result in serious back or spinal cord injury, if not ultimately to the motorcycle rider’s death
  • Head or brain injury: despite wearing a helmet, motorcycle accidents will frequently result in blunt force trauma to the head permanently affecting your or a loved one’s quality of life.
  • Death: Motorcycle accidents are unfortunately many times fatal.

As you can see from the list above, the effects of the motorcycle accident can be long term and life altering. Therefore it is imperative that you contact a civil trial lawyer with the experience, knowledge and resources to fight the insurance companies to maximize your recovery. LeavenLaw’s motorcycle accident attorneys stand ready to help you.
