Suisun City Motorcycle Accident Attorney

However, even though there are many benefits to riding a motorcycle, motorcyclists still face major risks and are liable to suffer severe injuries in the event of a crash. In many cases, these injuries have a huge impact on motorcyclists’ lives.
As Suisun City motorcycle accident attorneys, it’s our job to ensure that injured motorcyclists can recover the compensation they need to move forward with their lives.
We Focus on Major Injury CasesThe damages that motorcyclists suffer as the result of accidents can add up to a large sum. Because cases involving serious injuries can be so valuable, financially liable parties like insurers, negligent drivers, and/or auto manufacturers often do everything they can to disclaim responsibility. These parties will often put a considerable amount of time and resources toward their legal defense, making it very hard for injured motorcyclists to claim the compensation they need to cover their damages.
Because these cases can be difficult, it’s important to know that your lawyer has the resources, skill, and experience to make sure you receive the payments you deserve. Our law firm only takes on cases that involve either a fatal or major injury, meaning that our attorneys are experts when it comes to handling high-value cases. We have decades of experience conducting accident investigations, negotiating settlements, and proving cases in court.
Running a Holistic PracticeWe are often called the “personal” personal injury lawyer. This is because our firm is run holistically, meaning that we choose to focus on our clients on a personal level and prioritize care and compassion during the claims process. We think of our firm as a family, and our clients are the most important members.
Many firms prefer to keep clients at arm’s length while working on their case. A strictly business-like approach to injury claims can be effective for some. However, we believe that by taking a genuine interest in our clients’ lives, we can fully understand how they’ve been affected by their injuries. This understanding helps us to be more effective advocates for our clients’ rights to compensation.

Calling an AttorneyPeople who’ve been injured in motorcycle accidents frequently face a difficult path to recovery. Firstly, being injured can be both painful and mentally stressful, and recovering can take a long time or even cause permanent health issues. To recover, many people need extensive medical care, including surgeries, physical therapy, and more, all of which can be highly expensive. Affording quality medical care may seem impossible, especially for people who have been left unable to work because of their injuries.
