ACCIDENTS & INJURIES
"No
case ever brings a settlement or judgment that makes it worthwhile
to have a motorcycle accident. As your motorcycle accident
lawyer in San Francisco, Oakland and San Jose areas in California,
my job is to manage your case so that the insurance adjuster or
a jury will understand. My goal is to make every client happy with
the way that I handled their case. As a motorcycle owner and rider,
I know what goes through my mind every time I ride. California
motorcycle accident cases are very different from other cases.
Handling a lawsuit for a motorcyclist requires unique skills. I
care about motorcycles, and those who ride them. And I think about
that every time I get a call on a new case."
-Attorney Mike Padway
Motorcyclists face a far higher risk of involvement in an injury-causing
accident
A motorcycle crash is a complex event involving the interaction
of human, vehicle, and environmental factors. While there is no
"typical" motorcycle accident, what is "typical"
is that a motorcycle crash is a violent event. More than 80
percent of all reported motorcycle accidents result in injury or
death to the motorcyclist. The motorcycle itself provides
no head injury protection to the rider or passenger. Ejection from
the motorcycle is a common injury pathway. If a motorcycle
comes to a sudden stop and the rider is ejected from the motorcycle,
the rider will forcibly strike objects in the path as well as the
ground.
Motorcycle injuries are expensive because they tend to be
more serious and have much longer rehabilitation periods. According
to comprehensive insurance industry data, 23% of motorcycle claimants
have injuries in multiple locations, 18% suffer head injuries with
permanent disability and 10% of claimants have injuries to the back
or spine. Some of these result in permanent paraplegia or quadriplegia.
This means that 50% of motorcycle accident claimants have the sort
of life-threatening injuries from which some never recover.
