How Can a Winston-Salem Motorcycle Accident Lawyer Help Me?
Building a winning case for compensation following a motorcycle accident on your own can be challenging. When the defendant has the support of lawyers and insurance companies, you need to level the playing field.
Our legal team knows how to maximize compensation in motorcycle accident injury cases and can help in the following:
- Investigating your accident. It is crucial to clearly understand the facts of your accident. An attorney can thoroughly investigate the crash with two goals in mind. First, they will review the facts to determine liability. Second, they can evaluate your losses to determine your case's worth. This step involves speaking with witnesses, reviewing police reports, and collecting medical records. Once the investigation is complete, your attorney could have enough evidence to build a case for compensation.
- Developing a theory of negligence. Every successful motorcycle accident lawsuit is built on a theory of negligence. Negligence claims must prove four things in a personal injury case: duty, breach, causation, and damages/harm. Building a theory of negligence is a critical step in the personal injury claim process.
- Advocating for you. You will be repeatedly asked to talk about your accident throughout the process. From your own insurance company to lawyers for the at-fault motorist, these parties do not have your best interests in mind. An attorney can advocate on your behalf so that you do not need to speak directly with the other parties involved in your case. This is more than a matter of convenience, given that anything you say could be misconstrued or held against you.
- Negotiating a settlement. Many motorcycle cases ultimately conclude with a settlement agreement. While never guaranteed, they are common. In most cases, you can expect a settlement offer from the defendant, but it is not always worth accepting. An attorney can ensure you reject unreasonable amounts that will not cover your damages and advocate for more fair compensation.
- Litigating your case. It is not always necessary to file a lawsuit following a motorcycle accident. However, sometimes settlements are slow to materialize because the defendant's attorney or insurer will not budge from a lowball offer. Your attorney can handle every aspect of litigating your case, from filing your lawsuit to helping navigate the case through the court system.
In addition, we can help you understand how specific issues, such as compliance with traffic laws and motor vehicle regulations, will affect your case.
