Miami Motorcycle Accident Lawyer

Motorcycle crashes are often known for their devastating results, including catastrophic injuries, debilitating pain, and extensive medical expenses that can forever impact a person’s future and their ability to live their lives. If you or a loved one sustained injuries in a Miami motorcycle accident due to another person’s wrongful, negligent, or reckless actions, you should reach out to an experienced Miami accident attorney as soon as possible. These lawyers are not only here to help you get through this challenging ordeal, but they are also there to help you fight for your rights and the compensation you deserve.

The Statute of Limitations Following a Motorcycle Accident in Miami

In Miami, you only have four years from the date of an accident to file an injury claim. This time period is the statute of limitations, which is the amount of time an individual has to sue following an accident. If you miss filing your claim within this period, you can be barred from pursuing compensation in the future.

However, depending on the circumstances, exceptions may apply to this rule that can impact this filing period. As a result, following a Miami motorcycle accident, you should reach out to a skilled and knowledgeable Miami motorcycle accident attorney as soon as you can. We can not only help verify how much time you have to file, but we can also ensure your case is prepared correctly and filed with the proper court before time expires.

Who is at Fault for a Miami Motorcycle Accident?

Following a Miami motorcycle accident, there can be numerous parties responsible for the injuries and losses you endured, including:

  • Other negligent motorists, pedestrians, truckers, or bicyclists
  • Manufacturers of the motorcycle or its parts
  • Motorcycle mechanics
  • Motorcycle dealerships
  • Governmental entities responsible for road design or maintenance

However, if you have been harmed in a Miami motorcycle accident, it may not always be clear who was at fault for your crash. That is why the best way to determine liability for your injuries and losses after a motorcycle accident is to reach out to a skilled motorcycle accident lawyer in Miami. These attorneys can not only figure out what happened and who was at fault for your crash, but they can also help you hold all the liable parties accountable for the damages you endured.

Should You Make a Statement to the Insurance Company Following a Miami Motorcycle Accident?

Most people tend to believe that the insurance company will want to help them after an accident, especially if the crash was not their fault. However, this is not how insurance companies work.

Insurance companies are a business, and like other businesses, they want to make a profit. For these reasons, these companies and their insurance adjusters will try to do everything they can to get you on the phone when you are the most vulnerable so that they can get you to say something that can impact your case and the amount of money you can get.

Consequently, if the insurance company is calling, you should keep your conversation with them short and limit it to only the basic facts of the accident. Better yet, you should tell these insurance adjusters that all future communications will be through your motorcycle accident attorney in MIami who, once retained, can handle all these conversations and discussions and ensure that you do not say anything to these companies that can impact your case.

Fight for the Justice You Deserve with an Experienced Miami Motorcycle Accident Attorney

Motorcycle accidents are known for their devastating consequences and life-changing injuries. That is why following one of these horrifying crashes, the last thing you want to worry about is whether the insurance company will provide you with the money you need or what evidence you need to present to the other side so that you get the compensation you are entitled to.

Thankfully, with an experienced Miami motorcycle accident lawyer fighting on your side, you will not have to take on this complex legal battle by yourself. Instead, these attorneys can:

  • Evaluate your case and determine if you have a viable injury claim you can pursue.
  • Answer all your questions regarding what needs to be done following the accident, the legal options you have, and how to go after the financial damages you deserve.
  • Investigate the incident, and secure the reliable and relevant evidence needed to show fault and damages, such as police reports, medical reports, photos and videos of the accident, and witness testimony.
  • Hire experts to validate your claim, including engineers, accident reconstructionists, doctors, and financial specialists.
  • Negotiate with the insurance company, take on their deceitful practices, and go after a fair settlement amount.
  • Head to trial if the other side is unwilling to provide you with a just settlement offer and fight for maximum compensation.

I usually never leave reviews, good or bad, but for this instance, I most definitely had to. David and Marnie were both AMAZING. They made me feel comfortable and confident in their ability to resolve my case. I was walking in a crosswalk and was hit by a vehicle resulting in having to go to the hospital. I sustained injuries from this that I am still in the midst of dealing with. I contacted the firm and was able to speak with them via zoom immediately. I decided to sign with them on a Monday evening (3 days after my accident) and by Tuesday afternoon (the very next day) my case was settled. And settled for the very max that was able to be obtained. I attribute a lot of this to not only the expertise of the firm, but the relationships that Marnie has built with her experience working as a lawyer within a major insurance provider, which just so happened to be the insurance provider involved in my case. This is incredibly atypical for a case to be settled this quickly, especially with this outcome. It has been two weeks to the day today that my accident has happened and my case has already been resolved. I am blessed and more than happy that I decided to hire this firm. Every case is different, but I can bet that this firm will handle your case with care and the utmost professionalism. I pray I never have to go through a situation like this again, but if I did, I wouldn’t hesitate to call this law firm. Thank you guys very much!!

I highly recommend Eltringham Law Group to anyone seeking legal advice after having a car accident. David Eltringham and his entire staff gave me the personal attention I needed during a very difficult and painful time. David took the extra steps needed to ensure that I received the medical care I needed as well as the financial compensation I deserved. Harold Torres, Paralegal updated me every step of the way. Thank you Eltringham Law Group!
