If you sustained injuries in a motorcycle accident, you may work with a lawyer to settle your claim out of court, giving you a chance to secure funds to cover all of your losses. Settling with the insurance company may allow you to seek damages for your:

Medical Expenses

Motorcycle accidents can lead to severe injuries, including spinal cord injuries, amputations, and traumatic brain injuries (TBIs). Our team can help you secure funds to cover all the medical care required to recover from these injuries, including:

• Emergency treatment and a ride in an ambulance 
• Time in a hospital during your initial recovery
• Medical tests and procedures 
• Rehabilitation, physical therapy, and costs for medications 

The costs to cover your medical treatment can vary significantly based on the kind of injuries caused by your motorcycle collision. 

Lost Wages

Settling with the insurance company may also allow you to secure funds to cover the pay you lost at work while recovering from injuries caused by a motorcycle wreck. The settlement may also cover your lost bonuses and raises. 

In some situations, motorcycle collisions leave individuals with disabling conditions. You may receive funds to cover your lost earning potential in these cases. 

Property Damage

We can help you secure damages to cover the costs of repairing your motorcycle or replacing your vehicle if the accident totaled your bike. Settling may also cover the costs to repair other property, like a cell phone potentially damaged in the collision. 

Pain and Suffering

Finally, you may qualify to receive damages for any pain and suffering caused by your motorcycle accident in Arizona. We understand how to value these non-economic losses and can take charge of your claim today. 

How Do You Get Damages Through a Settlement?

If you settle your insurance claim after an insurance company, you may receive your compensation through a lump sum payment. In other cases, insurance agents may set up payments to cover your losses over an extended period of time.

The method for the dispersal of your compensation can vary. You can speak with a lawyer about your options.

Does Fault Change Your Compensation?

Arizona uses comparative negligence rules to handle motor vehicle accident claims. These laws mean you can seek compensation for your losses even if you hold partial liability for the collision. 

However, the amount of compensation you receive will decrease based on the percentage of liability you have for the wreck. A lawyer can review your claim and establish negligence to protect your compensation.
