Arizona Motorcycle Accident Law FAQs
If you have been injured in a motorcycle accident on Arizona roads, please take the time to look over our frequently asked questions about motorcycle accident laws AZ, Arizona motorcycle accident lawyer, wrongful death claims and accidents from roadway defects. Arizona is a great place to take your motorcycle out and enjoy the warm weather and expansive stretches of highway. However, it can also be extremely dangerous given that motorcycle accidents are on the rise. With many people moving to Arizona each year, the roads have become more congested, leading to serious and sometimes fatal crashes involving motorcycles. As an Arizona motorcycle accident attorney with over 29 years of experience, Simon Law Group is regularly asked a number of common questions when we meet with new concerned clients. We have put together a list of the top FAQs that will help motorcycle accident victims when considering whether to file a lawsuit. These FAQs are as follows:
How do the majority of motorcycle accidents occur in Arizona?
Motorcycle accidents typically occur due to the inability for drivers to notice motorcyclists on the road. Motorcyclists often are involved in side swipe collisions given that other drivers fail to see them when changing lanes on a busy road or highway. Many other motorcycle accidents occur due to the inexperience of the motorcyclist. Maneuvering a motorcycle (especially in places that are unfamiliar) can be difficult for even the most skilled motorcyclist.
What should I do if I have been in a motorcycle accident in Arizona?
Without a doubt, the first thing that you should do is to seek medical attention. Motorcycle accidents can be serious and cause life threatening injuries. Such injuries can turn deadly if not treated immediately. The longer you wait to get treated, the less likely your insurance company will be to accept your claim. Moreover, you also should be sure to collect all applicable information related to your accident, such as your police report and the contact information of the other driver and any witnesses at the scene.
What types of damages am I entitled to receive?
If you choose to pursue a motorcycle accident suit, Arizona offers numerous ways of recovering the compensation you deserve. Specifically, you could receive money to cover your medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering and even for emotional trauma. Each one of these individually could mean a damages awarding exceeding six figures and beyond, depending upon the nature of your accident and severity of your injuries. Every motorcycle accident is different however, requiring the experience of Simon Law Group – Arizona’s best motorcycle attorney to help you determine what you may be entitled to receive.
What if I don’t have motorcycle insurance, can I still recover for my injuries?
The answer is yes. In Arizona, you still maintain the right to hold wrongdoers accountable for your injuries and/or property damage.
Who is responsible for my injuries and/or damage to my motorcycle as a result of my accident?
Anyone who was involved in your accident is potentially liable for your damages. This can also include pedestrians, government entities who fail to maintain safe roads, and insurance companies.
