Introduction
The number of motorcycle related accidents have
increased drastically in Los Angeles, CA, over
the last decade. This is understandably so
because of the high level of traffic on the roads
and an increased number of roadways. Many of
these motorcycle accidents result in fatalities
even if the biker follows all state safety
protocols. Simply wearing a helmet and other
protective gear including gloves, boots, pants,
and jackets, can result in serious injury or
death if the motorcyclist collides with a motor
vehicle. Common hazards and unfavorable weather
conditions can also result in serious injury for
bikers and cyclists.

When a motorcyclist is involved in an accident,
they often suffer serious injuries including
broken bones, damage to the spinal cord and
Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI). These serious
injuries can leave the motorcyclist paralyzed.
The accident victim requires extensive treatment
for their injuries and if the injuries cause
permanent disability, then they have to face a
lifetime of medical bills. In almost all these
cases, the motorcyclist is unable to work and
earn, and becomes a burden on their family. In
such cases, it becomes imperative to contact a
motorcycle accident attorney who can get you the
compensation when you have been harmed due to
another careless driver on the road.

Very few states allow lane-splitting, a dangerous
practice which allows motorcyclists to drive on
the lane divider, and California is one of those
states. In California, many automobile drivers
fail to look for a lane-splitting biker, which
can result in serious injury. When the automobile
driver picks up speed as traffic begins to clear,
they may do so without checking for someone
alongside them on the lane divider. In such a
case, the driver of the automobile is held
responsible for their negligence. In order to
hold the automobile driver responsible for their
actions and to get compensated for the damages
caused by their negligence, it is important to
hire a motorcycle accident attorney. Some of the
key reasons to contact a motorcycle accident
injury attorney are listed ahead

  you if you were not wearing a helmet. Although
  the state of California requires motorcyclists
  and their passengers to wear a safety helmet, an
  experienced motorcycle accident attorney can
  still build a strong case.

• The accident lawyer will also know how to
  negotiate with the insurance company. Never talk
  to the other partys insurance provider without a
  lawyer. Let the lawyer do the negotiation for you.
