Helping Seriously Injured Motorcyclists Get Fair Compensation
The most common type of motorcycle accident in California occurs when a driver makes a left turn at an intersection without noticing an oncoming motorcycle. Drivers who are in the habit of looking out for other cars and trucks often do not pay attention to smaller vehicles.
Because motorcyclists do not have the same level of protection that people in enclosed vehicles do, the injuries in these accidents are often severe, even at relatively low speeds.
We regularly handle cases involving head injuries, spinal cord injuries, and other catastrophic injuries that people suffer in motorcycle accidents. Attorney Sven Buncher will personally evaluate all of the details of your case and ensure that we are pursuing the results you deserve.
Not Wearing a Helmet? That Doesn't Get the Other Driver Off the Hook.
California has a helmet law but that doesn't mean that if you were not wearing a helmet that the other driver has no responsibility for your accident. Be aware that it is up to the judge or jury to make any determination of responsibility and no one else. Don't let the fact that you may have not been wearing a helmet or that you feel you may be at fault somehow deter you. Even if you think you may have been primarily at fault, you may be wrong and entitled to significant compensation. Come talk with us and let us begin building your case.
A driver who causes a motorcycle accident is generally responsible for the motorcyclist's injuries. Failing to wear a helmet may be considered comparative negligence but does not eliminate the driver's responsibility.
