Motorcycle Accident Claims in Florida

Florida is a gorgeous state with many open roads and sunny weather perfect for motorcycling. However, the state’s motorbike-friendliness means that there are more motorcyclists on our roads than in most other U.S. states; and, therefore, more accidents. Over 500 people have been killed annually in Florida motorcycle crashes over the last several years. In fact, Florida had far more motorcycle fatalities than any other state in the years 2016 and 2017 according to data published by the Governors Highways Safety Association (GHSA) in 2018.

At Idrizi Law Group, we want the bikers of our state to feel safe when they ride and are fierce defenders of those who have been injured in a motorcycle crash that was caused by no fault of their own. If you or a loved one was injured or killed while riding a motorcycle in Florida, our Clearwater motorcycle accident attorneys are here for you. We will help you secure prompt, adept medical treatment and compensation to cover your medical bills, bike repairs, and more.

Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents in Florida

A motorcycle accident can come about due to bad weather, poor road conditions, or simple bad luck. However, most motorcycle accidents are caused by human error. This is sometimes on the part of the motorcyclist themselves, but is most often caused by someone driving a larger passenger or commercial vehicle. Motorists often forget to look out for bikers, which can cause serious collisions with devastating consequences—usually more so for the motorcyclist than the driver.

Here are the most common causes of Florida motorcycle accidents:

  • Distracted driving
  • Speeding
  • Drunk driving
  • Driver fatigue
  • Low visibility
  • Running a red light or stop sign
  • Improper left turns
  • Improper lane changes
  • Head-on collisions
  • Lane splitting/weaving through traffic
  • Dangerous road conditions
  • Poorly designed roads
  • Inclement weather

Why Hire a Motorcycle Accident Lawyer

You may not need a lawyer if you have only suffered a few scrapes or minor property damage—your insurance company will take care of those costs. However, if you have been seriously hurt, we highly recommended enlisting the services of a lawyer. If you have sustained an injury that requires extensive medical treatment, your expenses will add up quickly—especially if you have to take time off work to recover. By filing a personal injury claim for damages with the help of a lawyer, you can ensure that all your accident-related expenses are covered.

A layer can help you secure compensation for:

  • Medical expenses, both past and future
  • Lost wages from taking time off work
  • Motorcycle repair or replacement costs
  • Pain and suffering

A motorcycle accident lawyer can also help you determine liability. When you get into a crash caused by another person, that driver’s insurance company will immediately begin to build a case against you because they don’t want to pay their client’s claim and lose money. This is why it is crucial that you don’t apologize to anyone for an accident you did not cause, nor should you ever speak to the at-fault motorist’s insurance company. Otherwise, they will use anything you say against you.

If you work with an attorney, they will handle the insurance claims process on your behalf as well as file your personal injury claim and other paperwork for you. Your motorcycle accident lawyer will also provide legal guidance and support, protect your rights, walk you through complicated legal procedures, and help you calculate your damages to ensure you receive the maximum compensation available.
