Jersey City New Jersey Motorcycle Accident Attorneys

The cost of a motorcycle accident extends beyond initial hospitalization and medical treatment. If head injury, amputations, and spinal cord damage are involved, injured motorcyclists face future surgery, physical therapy, the need for medical equipment, and lost wages. The personal injury lawyers at Lerner Piermont & Riverol recover damages for injured motorcycle riders proportional to the total financial costs of their injuries. When insurance companies underestimate our client's losses, we consult life care planners and medical economists who provide expert cost-data analyses detailing costs associated with different kinds of head, neck, and back injuries projected over time.

We can help you demand the financial compensation you deserve - contact motorcycle accident lawyers at the law office of Lerner Piermont & Riverol today.

Investigating an Accident - Why It's Important

Most motorcycle accidents happen because motorists fail to see a motorcycle to the side of them or when approaching an intersection. Car and truck drivers change lanes without signaling, turn right at intersections without looking along their right hand side, or roll through intersections without carefully looking both ways. As a result, it's not uncommon for motorists to claim they aren't responsible for causing an accident.

At Lerner Piermont & Riverol, our motorcycle accident attorneys act immediately to begin our own investigation into the causes and nature of a motorcycle accident. Working with skid mark analysts and accident investigators, we reconstruct an accident in order to establish what happened and why. We expose driver negligence, especially when speeding or a failure to yield is involved, using computer animation if appropriate to explain to jurors how an accident happened.

Protecting Clients from Insurers

Insurance companies try to reduce the amount they have to pay in claims by convincing injury victims to settle a case as soon as possible. Realizing it may take weeks or months for the full effects of a head, neck, or back injury to become known, claims adjusters try to intimidate or mislead injured motorcyclists to accept an offer without going to court. They may even try to convince an injury victim to release their medical records to them or have their injuries evaluated by an insurance company doctor.
