Injured in an At-Fault Motorcycle Accident? I Can Help
If you were involved in a motorcycle accident because you misjudged a sharp turn or lost control of your motorcycle, you may think you have no recourse to recover compensation for your injuries. Under Ontario motor vehicle legislation, your own insurance policy provides no-fault benefits even if you were at fault for the accident. As your lawyer, I can help you recover the benefits you have under your own insurance policy to cover your medical, rehabilitation and long-term care expenses, income loss and other expenses.
Types of At-Fault Accidents
Many of the motorcycle accident cases I handle are single-vehicle accidents, meaning they involve only you and your motorcycle. I fully investigate the nature of your accident, calling on professional experts such as health care professionals to determine the extent of your injuries. I handle cases involving:
- Misjudging a turn
- Target fixation, meaning you steer where you are currently looking
- Loss of control
- Low visibility at night or in adverse weather conditions
- Misjudging the distance between you and other vehicles or the speed at which they are travelling
The rules and procedures for recovering at-fault accident benefits are complicated and technical. While insurance companies often pay these claims initially, many of them stop paying before the claim is finished. My legal team and I work diligently to ensure your claim is paid in full.
Whether you are a beginner or more experienced bike rider, a cycle crash can have a significant impact on your ability to work, as well as your livelihood. I work to help you recover the compensation you need to maintain financial stability while you recover so you can carry on with your life.
