IMPORTANT PARTS OF ANY MOTORCYCLE INJURY CLAIM
As a highly qualified, personal injury lawyer who has handled many motorcycle wrecks over his career, the factors listed below are the issues I am trying to evaluate when I am looking at a serious, motorcycle accident:
- Was the at-fault driver insured and how much was he insured for?
In the vast majority of the personal injury claims arising from a motorcycle wreck, the at-fault driver does not have enough insurance to pay the full value of my client’s personal injury claim. As a result, right off the bat, I am trying to determine how much the at-fault driver was insured for and whether you have a claim for underinsured motorist benefits.
2. If the at-fault driver was uninsured, was the vehicle he was driving insured or did someone else own the vehicle?
If you borrow my car, the insurance on my vehicle is primary and your insurance is secondary to my insurance; meaning your insurance does not come into play into the insurance on the vehicle is exhausted. In other words, I have to look for insurance on both the driver and the at-fault vehicle. Either one can cover my client’s personal injury claim.
3. Does my client have uninsured orunderinsured motorist coverage on his own insurance policy, motorcycle, or automobile policy, that we can recover from?
To make sure I can recover on your personal injury claim, I am trying to get ready for the worst-cases scenario; one in which the at-fault driver was uninsured or underinsured. While most automobile insurance has an exclusion that says they don’t have to cover you while you are using a motorcycle, we still want to investigate this kind of insurance to make sure we recovered every penny we could for our client.
4. Does my client have no-fault, med-pay or health insurance coverage that might cover his medical bills?
Very simply, this inquiry is concerned with how I get my client, the injured motorcyclist, the treatment he needs. I do not want my client still owing, once his personal injury claim is resolved.
5. Are there any liens that will need to be satisfied out of my client’s injury settlement?
As a good injury lawyer, my job is to maximize the recovery on behalf of the injured client and minimize the deductions from that recovery for unpaid medical bills, attorney fees and health insurance subrogation claims. As a result, we want to know who will be paying your medical bills, and what their recovery rights they have, from day one.
