SPRING VALLEY MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT LAWYER
Your Recovery Is Our Priority
Free ConsultationAs gasoline prices rise, more people turn to lower fuel consumption alternatives, such as motorcycles. With more riders on Las Vegas streets and highways, one would think that four-wheel vehicle operators would keep a sharper lookout for motorcycles. Alas, that’s not true, at least in most cases. Most riders who have gone down heard the other driver say something like “You came out of nowhere.” Basically, such a statement is an admission that the other driver didn’t maintain a proper lookout.
A diligent Spring Valley motorcycle accident lawyer from Cameron Law knows what it takes to obtain the financial compensation these victims need and deserve. Victims need this compensation to pay the staggering medical bills and other expenses that such accidents cause. Victims deserve this compensation because, under Nevada law, damages must put victims in the same place they were in before an accident. A money judgment isn’t time travel to before the accident, but it’s the next best thing.
In vehicle collisions, the motorcycle rider fatality rate is almost thirty times higher than the four-wheel vehicle occupant fatality rate. This statistic highlights the serious nature of the injuries motorcycle crash victims sustain. These serious injuries include:
The average injury-related hospital bill is over $50,000. To ease the financial pressure these victims feel, a Spring Valley motorcycle accident lawyer connects victims with doctors who charge nothing upfront for their services. These professionals focus on injury-related matters, so they know how to effectively diagnose and treat these injuries.
Failure to maintain a proper lookout is a clear violation of a motorist’s duty of care. This duty requires them to avoid accidents whenever possible and always drive defensively.
However, a preliminary negligence case isn’t enough to obtain maximum compensation in these situations. Victim/plaintiffs must also be prepared for certain insurance company defenses, such as the motorcycle helmet defense.
In many states, the motorcycle helmet defense is quite clear. This defense, which blames riders for their own injuries if they weren’t wearing a helmet, is either allowed or not. But Nevada’s motorcycle helmet defense, which is found in N.R.S. § 484D.495, is rather vague. So, a lawyer must be ready for a fight.
Not all motorcycle accident defenses are found in a book. Insurance company lawyers also often use the motorcycle prejudice. This prejudice holds that riders are reckless thugs who don’t use proper caution. Once again, an attorney must be ready to respond to this defense.
