How Fort Lauderdale Motorcycle Accidents Happen

Motorcycle accidents are among the most violent crashes. There are many limitations and unique aspects of operating a motorcycle that places the rider in a defensive driving mode. Unfortunately, even the most prepared and skilled motorcyclists can fall victim to another person’s negligence, resulting in an accident.

Whether it’s getting sideswiped on I-595 or 95, or a drunk driver near 3rd Ave, there are numerous ways that a Fort Lauderdale motorcycle accident can happen. According to the National Highway Safety Traffic Administration, the most common causes of motorcycle accidents are:

• Motorist turning into the motorcyclist’s path
• Motorist not seeing the motorcycle
• Inclement weather
• Debris on road
• Construction on the road
• Failure to yield the right of way
• Unsafe lane changes
• Tailgating
• Poorly maintained roads
• Reckless driving
• Aggressive driving
• Driving while intoxicated
• Driving while distracted
• Illegal turns

Our Fort Lauderdale motorcycle accident attorneys will do everything we can to fight for the compensation you deserve. Meanwhile, you can relax and focus your energy on recovering from your injuries.

Identifying the At-Fault Party

It all begins with a private investigation of your accident. We will assemble a team to collect all the evidence needed to prove who caused your accident. Our efforts will include:

• Visiting the site of your accident
• Interviewing witnesses
• Obtaining a copy of the official police accident report
• Gathering any photos and/or videos from nearby surveillance cameras

We will thoroughly construct your case with the evidence that will make insurers, judges, and juries take notice.

Proving Negligence and Establishing Liability

The evidence we gather in your investigation will go beyond proving the defendant is at fault for the accident. In order to pass legal muster, we will establish the four criteria commonly referred to as “duty of care.” The components of this legal principle are as follows:

• Duty of Care – The defendant had a responsibility to take reasonable precautions to keep you from injury.
• Breach of Duty – The defendant failed to fulfill their duty of care.
• Causation – The defendant’s breach of duty caused your motorcycle accident.
• Damages – The accident caused you to suffer injury and financial loss.

By proving the above elements, we can present your case for your recovery of damages.

The evidence and information we obtain to show your damages and losses may include:

• Your medical records

Wrongful Death Actions

If you lose a loved one due to injuries sustained in a motorcycle accident, you should know that you are entitled to pursue a wrongful death action. We can represent you in this action, and we will handle the matter professionally—with compassion and dignity.

Statute of Limitations Means You Must Act Soon

Florida’s statute of limitations under § FL 95.11 requires that you file any legal action within a specified amount of time after your motorcycle accident. It is important that you not jeopardize your opportunity to recover compensation by missing this deadline. Our team will manage every aspect of your case to make sure all deadlines are met, and every detail happens as it should.

Keep in mind that the sooner you hire your attorney, the more time you give us to meet this deadline, as well as to construct a case that will withstand the rigors of a scrutinizing insurance claim review and/or civil trial.
