Orlando Motorcycle Accident Attorney

Motorcycle accidents can lead to serious, life-altering injuries. If you have been in an accident, then you likely know how severe a motorcycle accident can be. You may be in tremendous pain. You may be experiencing emotional trauma. You may have a difficult paying medical bills and living expenses while you recover.

You may also be feeling pressured to settle your motorcycle accident claim as soon as possible. A settlement would provide closure to your accident, and provide you with immediate funds to help pay your bills and support your family.

Insurance professionals know that you are feeling this pressure, and they will attempt minimize the amount that you are owed. They will provide an initial settlement offer, which is typically for less than what your case is worth. If you do not take this offer, they will begin working to diminish the value of your claim, delay settling your case, or deny your claim.

Prior to his career as a personal injury attorney, Jeff worked as an insurance adjuster and an insurance defense attorney. He understands the strategies that insurance professionals use to limit the insurance company’s liability in motorcycle accidents.

Now, Jeff is committed to protecting the rights of accident victims, using his past experiences to maximize settlement awards and judgments for accident victims.

Do You Have A Good Case?

If you have been injured in a motorcycle accident, you may have a claim for compensation. But how do you know whether or not you have a good motorcycle accident case? After a motorcycle accident you should speak with an attorney about the following questions:

  1. Was the motorcycle accident someone else’s fault?
    If someone other than you caused the accident, then you may have a successful case.
  2. Was the damage to your bike?
    You do not have to have property damages to have a successful claim, but photos of damage to your bike will be helpful in supporting your case.
  3. Did you receive medical treatment for your injuries?
    After a motorcycle accident, it is important to seek emergency medical treatment. A medical diagnosis, records of medical treatment, and ongoing treatment plans are critical to supporting your claim.
  4. When did the motorcycle accident occur?
    In Florida, there is limited time to file a claim after a car accident. If you wait too long to act, then you may lose your right to seek compensation.
  5. Is there insurance available to pay for your claim?
    No matter how serious your injuries are after an accident, if the driver who caused your collision has no money or insurance and you do not carry UM insurance, then there may not be a source from which you can recover financial compensation.

What Can I Recover From A Motorcycle Accident Case?

One of the most common questions we receive about motorcycle accidents is about the value of a motorcycle case. That is understandable. If you are considering taking legal action, you may be wondering if the compensation you receive is worth the additional time and expense of hiring an attorney.

The value of a motorcycle accident varies depending on the specific facts of the case. Still, there are certain losses, called damages, that we can use to calculate how much your case is worth.

After an motorcycle accident, you may have:

  • medical bills,
  • lost wages,
  • property damage,
  • vocational rehabilitation
  • loss of earning capacity
  • household services
  • and other associated out-of-pocket costs.

These are called economic damages. While this form of damages is relatively easy to calculate, there may be many hidden costs that you have not considered, as well as future expenses necessary for your recovery. Motorcycle accidents tend to be much more serious than other types of traffic accidents, and injuries may require long-term care. As we determine the value of your case, we will take into account all past, present and future medical needs to ensure you receive the compensation you need to make a full financial recovery.

You may also be entitled to non-economic damages to cover losses such as:

  • pain and suffering,
  • loss of enjoyment for life,
  • worsening of prior injuries,
  • humiliation,
  • reputational damage, and
  • emotional trauma.

As you can probably imagine, things like pain and suffering are difficult to calculate. That is why it is important to speak with an attorney about your case. 

Insurance companies may only be taking into account the cost of your medical expenses when making an initial settlement offer. But the offer may not be enough to cover your medical needs, make up for lost wages, and account for significant life changes. 

Work with Bengal Law to determine the true value of your case. As a former insurance adjuster, our lead personal injury attorney Jeff Starker has years of experience evaluating the true value of motorcycle claims. We will uncover all potential sources of financial recovery, ensuring that we maximize the compensation due to you.

How Much Will A Motorcycle Accident Attorney Cost

We get it – the cost of legal representation is an important factor in your decision to pursue legal action after an accident. You may have heard stories of law firms that bill hundreds of dollars by the hour. Maybe you even have firsthand experience with one of those law firms. At Bengal Law, however, we represent clients on a contingency fee basis.

What is a contingency fee? In simple terms, a contingency fee means that we don’t get paid unless we win your case. The first consultation is free, and we advance the costs of representation to ensure you are able to afford the best legal representation possible.

Have questions about contingency fees or how much representation will cost? Contact our office today and schedule a free consultation to have your questions answered.

How Can A Motorcycle Accident Attorney Can Help?

You may decide that hiring an attorney is not right for you, and that you would prefer to handle your case on your own. In fact, many people do this everyday.

But, who will you go to with questions about your case? Will you be able to investigate the accident and collect evidence to support your claims? Will you be able to manage your medical bills? Do you have enough information to know the true value of your claim?

Insurance adjusters and insurance defense attorneys love working with unrepresented accident victims. They know how to leverage gaps in your knowledge about the law and the claims process to minimize the compensation paid to you. They may pressure you to take a quick settlement offer, or delay paying out a claim to influence you to settle for less than what your case is worth.

Working with a law firm like Bengal Law evens the playing field. Jeff Starker, our lead personal injury attorney, actually represented insurance companies prior to starting his own law firm. He knows all about the tactics and strategies that insurance companies will use against you to limit their own liability. Get the legal help you need to maximize your motorcycle accident settlement and make a full financial recovery.

Common Truck Accident Injuries

In many cases, bikers have only a helmet and padded jack to protect them against other vehicle and the road. Because of this exposure, motorcycle accidents tend to cause more severe injuries. Here are just a few of the common motorcycle accident injuries that our law firm has handled over the last 25 years:

  • Soft tissue injuries/whiplash
  • Traumatic Brain Injury, or TBI
  • Cuts and lacerations
  • Broken Bones
  • Spinal Cord Injuries

After an accident, it is critical to seek emergency medical care – even if you do not believe you are injured. Injuries such as whiplash, back injuries, and brain injuries may not be immediately recognizable. Moreover, a proper medical diagnosis will help us build a stronger case in your favor.

Regardless of the severity or type of injury you have suffered as the result of a motorcycle accident, Bengal Law is here to help.
