There are certain necessary steps you should take after a motorcycle accident to protect both your health and your legal rights.

• See a doctor: There is a high risk of severe injury with motorcycle accidents. Seek an evaluation immediately, even if you don’t believe you have suffered any major injuries, and hold on to all records related to your care and treatment.
• File a report: If your motorcycle accident occurred on a Florida highway or interstate, you are required to submit a written report to the Florida Highway Patrol within ten (10) days of the incident.
• Contact an attorney: A qualified attorney for motorcycle accidents in Plantation will help you navigate the claims process – and be your best defense against an insufficient payout.

A Plantation motorcycle accident lawyer from our team can handle negotiations with your insurance company or the insurer of the at-fault driver. Our personal injury attorneys have more than 200 years of combined experience negotiating fair compensation from insurance companies and may be able to pursue a personal injury lawsuit on your behalf if you are unable to obtain fair compensation through a traditional claim.

When you call our motorcycle injury law firm in Plantation, one of the first things we’ll want to do is see whether you can successfully establish that negligence occurred. There are four factors that must be proved for this to happen.

• There was a duty of care: A duty of care is a legal obligation to act in a reasonable manner, and means different things depending on the situation. In terms of motorcycle accidents, drivers are obligated to not drive recklessly and follow other rules of the road. Government entities are responsible for maintaining public roads so they are not unreasonably dangerous for motorcycle riders and other people and drivers.
• The duty of care was breached: This means the defendant failed to meet their duty of care. A jury may have to decide what reasonable care meant in your particular situation.
• The breach of duty of care was the primary cause of your injuries: Your Plantation motorcycle accident lawyer must show that your injuries were primarily caused by the breach of duty of care and not something else.

Your injuries resulted in damages: This could include medical bills, lost wages, and/or pain and suffering.
