Compensation you deserve Motorcycle Accident Litigation at Badon Law Firm

At The Badon Law Firm, we recognize the unique risks and challenges faced by motorcyclists on the road. Motorcycle accidents often result in severe injuries due to the lack of physical protection for riders, and the legal complexities surrounding these cases require specialized expertise. If you’ve been injured in a motorcycle accident, contact us immediately. Our experienced attorneys are here to fight for your rights and help you secure the compensation you deserve.

Why You Need an Experienced Motorcycle Accident Attorney

Motorcycle accidents differ significantly from standard automobile collisions. Riders are often unfairly stereotyped as reckless or negligent, which can complicate claims and defenses. Insurance companies and opposing parties may attempt to shift blame onto motorcyclists, making it essential to have an experienced attorney who understands the unique challenges of these cases.

Motorcyclists are also subject to special rules and laws designed to protect them on the road. For instance, Louisiana law requires all drivers to exercise heightened caution around motorcyclists, including yielding the right-of-way when appropriate and avoiding unsafe lane changes. Our attorneys are well-versed in these laws and will ensure that negligent drivers are held accountable for violations.

Additionally, motorcycle accidents often involve catastrophic injuries, such as traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, and broken bones. These injuries demand significant financial compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more. We will thoroughly investigate your case, gather critical evidence, and negotiate aggressively with insurers to secure fair compensation.

Compensation for Motorcycle Accident Victims

Helmet Laws

Louisiana mandates helmet use for all riders. While compliance with this law can reduce injury severity, insurance companies may still try to argue that injuries were worsened by improper helmet use or other factors.

Duty of Care

Motorists must provide additional care when sharing the road with motorcyclists. This includes maintaining a safe following distance and avoiding sudden maneuvers that could endanger riders.

Lane Splitting

Although common in some states, lane splitting is not permitted in Louisiana. Drivers unfamiliar with this rule may act recklessly around motorcyclists who attempt it, leading to accidents.

Our team At The Badon Law Firm is committed to ensuring that these rules are enforced and that negligent drivers are held responsible when they fail to respect motorcyclists’ rights.

Holding Negligent Drivers Accountable

Many motorcycle accidents occur because drivers fail to notice or respect motorcyclists on the road. Common causes include distracted driving, failure to yield, unsafe lane changes, speeding, and driving under the influence. We will work tirelessly to hold negligent drivers accountable for their actions under both civil and criminal law.
