Fighting for Necessary Compensation

A person injured in a motorcycle or a bicycle accident is not in the best position to fight for necessary compensation with a large automobile insurance company. There are a variety of reasons this is the case, which is no reflection on the intelligence or the abilities of a person injured because of the negligence of someone else.

• First and foremost, a person in need of appropriate compensation because of an accident is by definition not in the best possible position. The individual is hurt, perhaps has not been able to work for a while. He or she may be involved in ongoing, and challenging, medical treatments. This type of situation makes decision-making challenging, let alone having to stand up against a large insurance corporation to defend his or her rights and interests.
• Second, even an attorney is not necessarily adept at taking on an insurance company, let alone a person who does not have a legal background. In fact, an attorney needs not only an educational background to take on insurance companies, but also experience in doing so.

These realities explain why and how a personal injury attorney, like a member of the legal team at El Dabe Ritter Trial Lawyers, can be of assistance when an injured person is in need of a fighter to take on an insurance company. An experienced personal injury attorney not only understands the insurance claims process but understands how to make it work in a manner favorable to an injured person.

One fact must always bear in mind. An insurance company is in business for one reason and one reason only, to make money. An automobile insurer improves its bottom line every time it limits the amount of money paid out on a claim to a person injured in a motorcycle or bicycle accident. The same holds true when a claim is brought by a family in the case of a loved one who was killed in a motorcycle or bicycle accident caused by the negligence of another driver.

Wrongful Death Cases

Sadly, in a significant number of motorcycle and bicycle accidents, bikers of both kinds end up killed. In those situations, surviving family members can bring what is called a wrongful death lawsuit.

A spouse, child, and parent are examples of the types of relatives that can bring a wrongful death lawsuit in California. This represents another area in which Rancho Cucamonga motorcycle/bicycle accident lawyers provide invaluable assistance.

• Wrongful death cases involve a combination of complicated laws and court procedures. According to statistics maintained by the American Bar Association, oftentimes in the absence of an experienced lawyer, family members end up locked in the court together when attempting to assert their rights in a wrongful death case.
