Motorcyclists put themselves in vulnerable positions on the road. With little to protection around the body, many motorcycle accidents end in severe injuries that require long term medical treatment. When someone is injured due to the negligent actions of another, this gives rise to the ability to file a claim against the other person or their insurance company. If we are able to prove the negligence of another, we will then be able to obtain a fair and just compensation for our injured client.

Most Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents:

+ Distracted driving: Drivers who are on the phone are less likely to notice a motorcyclist.
+ Reckless Driving: Many reckless drivers tend to tailgate, swerve in and out of lanes, and ignore traffic signs and lights which leads to a higher chance of hitting a motorcyclist.
+Lane splitting : Lane splitting is legal in California. However, it is the job of the motorcylist to ensure it is safe to do so. This can become difficult because many of the drivers on the road tend to block motorcyclists from doing so.

What We are expert of

Frequently Asked Questions

As a claim or lawsuit can be very time consuming and difficult, there is no harm in getting a free consultation about your case. Our attorney is able to explain the rules of the state of California and help you decide whether it would be better to go ahead with a claim or file a lawsuit.

What if I wasn’t wearing a helmet at the time of the accident?

California law requires motorcyclists to wear helmets. If you decided not to wear a helmet, you may be able to recover compensation for your injuries but it is best to consult with a personal injury attorney so you can get a better understanding of what to do in your situation.

What if I was partially at fault for the accident?

You are able to still recover compensation for the damages that occurred during the accident. However, the compensation will be reduced. The reduction depends on what percentage of fault you are found at.

How can a motorcycle attorney help me with my case?

At Coria Law, we prioritize treatment of our clients because it is important that all injuries are addressed and cared for properly. Our office works with many medical doctors and facilities across Southern California. With the resources we have, we are able to get you into all types of medical treatment needed right away.

Secondly, we take on the responsibility of obtaining compensation from the responsible party. Many insurance companies and at-fault parties will low-ball victims without attorneys. Surprisingly, many people take those offers because they do not fully know what their case/situation is worth. An attorney would be able to evaluate your case and fight for a fair compensation.

How much does an attorney charge for their services?

At Coria Law, we work on a contingency basis. Thus, if we don’t win, you don’t pay! This is provided to all of our clients in writing upon them hiring our firm.
