Motorcyclists Can Be Seriously Injured

Motorcycle accidents are almost always unfair to the motorcyclist. Even if the driver of the car or truck is completely negligent, it’s still the rider who sustains most of the injuries. The size and weight difference – and the lack of protection for the motorcyclist – virtually guarantees that the rider is hurt significantly more than the driver of the vehicle. It’s the motorcyclist’s life that is turned upside down.
Loss of life
Neck injuries
Back injuries

Shoulder injuries

Soft tissue damage

Traumatic brain injury (TBI)

Any of these injuries can permanently change your life. They can make it impossible to work like you once did or to work at all. They can change the way you have to interact with your loved ones. And they can lead to serious financial hardship. It can be hard to imagine how you will take care of yourself and your family with such serious injuries. That’s why we are so committed to helping you get compensation for what happened to you.

Why You Need a Motorcycle Accident Lawyer in Utah

The personal injury laws in Utah can be used to pursue a successful motorcycle accident case. But your success depends greatly on your legal experience and skill – which is where we come in. Instead of having to figure out Utah motorcycle accident laws on your own, you can let us do the heavy lifting. There is no requirement to hire a professional personal injury attorney to file a lawsuit in Utah.

If you fill out the appropriate paperwork and submit it to the right people, you can start your case. But like trying to go whitewater rafting on the Colorado River through Moab, pursuing a lawsuit is much easier with a guide. And like whitewater rafting, there is a lot on the line in a personal injury lawsuit.

The law can be made to help accident victims in big ways, but only if you know how to navigate it. You need an experienced professional to help you identify the best strategy to prove liability.

5 Steps

How to Pursue a Motorcycle Accident Case in five steps.

Now that you know why you need a lawyer, you are probably wondering how you go about pursuing a case.
Step 1
Tell your story

Sometimes, motorcyclists are treated like they are at fault – even when they are not. The other driver may have blamed you. Even law enforcement might have looked at you with suspicion. Prejudice against motorcyclists is a real thing. But the truth is, motorcyclists are often extremely careful. It can be frustrating to know it wasn’t your fault and feel like no one will listen.

We want to hear your story. We want to help you uncover and prove the truth. The first thing we will do is listen. Once we are on the phone with you or meet you in person, we will listen to your story. And don’t worry, you don’t have to remember everything. We know what questions to answer to help you tell your full story.

Step 2
Investigate the accident
We will obtain your police report and speak to all of the available witnesses. Our team will carefully examine any photos or video. We may even go to the scene of the accident if it will help us determine exactly what happened.

Step 3

Attempt to settle with the insurer
Building an accident claim takes time, but it is time well spent. We will use what we learn from investigating your accident. We will also use the medical records related to treating your injuries. It is often necessary to wait until you have completed treatment before we can finalize the claim. But once we reach that point, all of our efforts will add up to demonstrate liability.

Step 4

Start building your claim
Litigating a case in the Utah courts is time-consuming and expensive. Sometimes it’s necessary. But we want to try to get the at-fault party’s insurance carrier to agree to settle your case. If we present a strong enough case, insurers will be too worried that they will lose in court. That worry can lead to a fair settlement that will help with your recovery.

Step 5

Start the litigation process
There are times when insurance companies want to play hardball. They may believe that they can avoid paying a fair settlement by going to court. If that happens, we will need to start the litigation process. Litigation can take some time. Fortunately, our attorneys are well-trained and experienced in litigation. We know how to prove liability to the court. We will put all of our experience to work and do our absolute best to successfully litigate your case.

    Henriksen & Henriksen Knows How to Win Motorcycle Accident Cases

    Our firm has a history of success with personal injury cases, including motorcycle accident cases. Recently, we helped a client who sustained a traumatic brain injury from a motorcycle accident. He had been riding his bike when another vehicle t-boned him. We conducted a thorough investigation to prove liability. Our investigation included examining the scene of the accident, interviewing the police officer that responded to the crash, and interviewing other eyewitnesses. Our investigation helped us prove that the driver was liable. We were able to help our client recover full policy limits.

    Is it Expensive to Hire You?

    Many new clients don’t realize this, but you only pay for our services if you win. That’s right. We work for free unless we win your case. If we win your case, we will take our legal fees from that compensation. This means that there is no financial risk for hiring our skilled personal injury firm.

    Motorcycles offer less protection because they have only two wheels and no seat belts or airbags like a car. Even the smallest road hazard or driver negligence can cause the deadliest motorcycle accidents. In other words, you would be seeking higher compensation for your injuries if you were involved in such an accident.

    If you are considering accepting a settlement from an insurance company for your motorcycle accident, we urge you to pause for a moment. It can be very tempting to say “Yes” to an offer from an insurer – especially if it seems like a lot of money. However, we want to help you understand your options when it comes to such settlements.
