Our San Jose Motorcycle Accident Attorneys Can Help After An Accident

Motorcycle accidents are often devastating. In fact, motorcyclists are 37 times more likely to be seriously injured in an accident than people who are victims of car accidents. If you have been injured in a motorcycle accident in the San Jose, CA area, use the form above to contact our experienced San Jose motorcycle attorneys for a free consultation.

Types of Motorcycle Accident Injuries

Injuries in motorcycle accidents are generally unique to motorcycle riders. Chest traumas, such as rib fractures, lacerated lungs, bruising of the chest wall and fluid build-up in the chest wall are typical serious motorcycle accident injuries. These types of injuries are a leading cause of fatalities in motorcycle riders involved in accidents.

Other Types of Motorcycle Accident Injuries

Leg fractures of the femur are common in motorcycle accidents. These can be devastating to the femur which is the largest and longest bone in the body. Skin abrasions (aka “road rash”) are also common in motorcycle accidents. This is the result of being thrown from the bike and skidding across the asphalt in the road.

Arm fractures in motorcycle accidents are more than common because of the 100 percent exposure of the arms of motorcycle riders. Arm fractures happen 13 percent of the time in motorcycle accidents. Back and neck injuries are common in motorcycle accidents, as are pelvic fractures and resulting internal injuries secondary to pelvic fractures.

Helmets and Traumatic Brain Injuries

Helmets provide some protection from motorcycle accident injuries. They will not, however, protect the head and brain from all injuries. A traumatic brain injury received in a motorcycle accident can affect a victim’s speech, personality, cognitive function or thinking, and motor skills. Sometimes it takes an extended period of time in therapy to recover or reconstruct a victim’s speech, cognitive functioning and other affected areas of the brain before the motorcycle accident victim can return to work.

Finding Legal Help

People injured in motorcycle accidents usually elect to hire attorneys to represent them. Their families are often instrumental in hiring a personal injury attorney for a loved one injured in a motorcycle accident, especially a family member who is incapacitated because of motorcycle accident injuries.

Medical Providers on a Lien Basis

An attorney can help the injured motorcycle rider to receive high level medical care that is not payable until after the case has received a favorable settlement or winning trial verdict. This is what happens when medical providers administer treatment on a lien basis. If the case is not won, the doctors agree to receive nothing. This takes the financial burden off of the injured motorcycle rider and his or her concerned family members.

What a Motorcycle Attorney Can Get an Injured Motorcycle Rider

A personal injury attorney who specializes in motorcycle law can do a great to help victims of motorcycle accidents. This is a highly specialized area of personal injury law. Motorcycle accidents can have lifelong devastating results, and it is especially important that a victim find a compassionate, experienced San Jose personal injury attorney to represent his or her legal interests.
