They weren’t looking—and you’re paying the price.

Accidents involving motorcycles typically result in devastating injuries, ranging from broken bones to head and neck injuries, spinal injuries, and paralysis.

As with car accidents, the steps you take following a motorcycle accident will be important to your case.

• THINGS FIRST: Get immediate medical attention if you believe you have any kind of injury. Be sure to tell the doctor that you have been in an accident so that there is a clear record. Tell the doctor exactly what took place. We will use that documentation in court.

• THEN call a lawyer. If you’ve suffered a serious injury and cannot come to see us, we’ll come to see you in the hospital or at home.

• Contact your insurance company and advise them that there has been an accident. Don’t make any tape recorded statements with any insurance company.

• Within 15 days of your accident you must file a form SR1 with the Department of Motor Vehicles to notify the state you have been in accident involving injury or more than $500 in property damage. We can file the paperwork for you.

It’s our job at Mitchell A. Shapiro, Inc. to ensure that the people responsible for your accident put you back in the same place you were before the accident, and to do so as quickly as possible. We are skilled at personal injury litigation and negotiation with insurance companies, and will work tirelessly to get you the largest and fastest settlement possible.

We don’t wait around for things to happen at the convenience of the insurance company – WE MAKE THINGS HAPPEN. Waiting for a settlement check? Not us – once your case is settled we will exchange the release document for a settlement check and you’ll have it in days, not weeks.
