## Motorcycle Accident Lawyers in Bradenton, Florida

In 2021, there were [8,638 motorcycle accidents](https://www.lawfran.com/blog/2020/10/florida-motorcycle-crash-facts/) in the state of Florida, contributing to [593 fatalities](https://www.flhsmv.gov/traffic-crash-reports/crash-dashboard/). Motorcycle crashes account for many personal injury cases. Being a victim or knowing a victim of a motorcycle accident can be devastating. Often, injuries are severe and recovery can be difficult. Victims of a motorcycle accident should be concentrating on their recovery and shouldn&#8217;t have to worry about paying their bills or fighting with an insurance company, which is an unfortunate commonality in Bradenton. Our highly-skilled, Bradenton [motorcycle accident attorneys](https://www.lawfran.com/motorcycle-accident-lawyers/) can help get you the settlement you deserve following a serious motorcycle accident.

Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents in Bradenton

There are many causes of motorcycle accidents, and many Bradenton motorcycle accidents lead to personal injury. Below are some [common causes of motorcycle accidents](https://www.lawfran.com/motorcycle-accident-lawyers/common-causes-of-motorcycle-accidents/) on the roads today.

### Other Drivers

Many times, the cause behind a motorcycle accident is another driver on the road. Bradenton motorcycle riders are at [just as much of a risk](https://www.lawfran.com/motorcycle-accident-lawyers/common-risks-of-riding-a-motorcycle/) of becoming a victim in a motorcycle accident than elsewhere in Florida. All it takes is one person not looking hard enough and passing their gaze right over a motorcyclist, causing an accident.

### Bad Weather

Inclement weather, such as rain, can cause poor visibility or slick road surfaces for motorcyclists. It is unfortunately too easy for other drivers to concentrate on the rain and not see a motorcyclist or the slick surfaces can cause the motorcycle to slide on the pavement if it loses traction.

### Curves In The Road

One of the first things that are taught when learning to ride a motorcycle is that curves in the road can be some of the most dangerous situations for riders. Curves can be difficult to navigate, and things like poor visibility around the curve, speed, or road obstructions can be particularly dangerous to a motorcyclist.

## Common Injuries from Motorcycle Accidents

If you have been injured in a motorcycle accident, there&#8217;s a good chance that you have experienced one of the below serious injuries. Due to how exposed motorcycle riders are, they are more prone to injuries than if they were protected by a car. Many injuries require long-term recovery such as physical therapy or hospital visits. These injuries can quickly drive up medical bills [even with insurance](https://www.lawfran.com/motorcycle-accident-lawyers/how-motorcycle-insurance-works/), putting unnecessary hardship on the motorcycle accident victim or their loved ones.

### Road Rash

Often, road rash is the easiest injury to sustain when in a motorcycle accident from skidding on the pavement. This injury can be painful and create serious scarring. However, this injury can be avoided with the right safety gear.

### Traumatic brain injuries

A traumatic brain injury can be particularly devastating to a motorcyclist and their loved ones. Serious injuries such as [brain injuries](https://www.lawfran.com/motorcycle-accident-lawyers/types-of-head-injuries/) are often difficult to recover from and require a lot of medical care.

### Spinal cord injuries

Spinal cord injuries often happen when a rider is ejected from their bike and collides with something. These injuries are also difficult to recover from and have long-term effects. Accidents resulting in spinal cord injuries can be very expensive for accident victims.

### Broken Bones

Broken bones may seem light compared to some of the other injuries listed, but they&#8217;re still very common and can impact the daily life of the motorcycle accident victim during their recovery.

## How To Stay Safe While On The Road

### Increase Visibility

Wearing high-vis gear with reflection on it is highly recommended, as well as avoiding riding at night. As stated, other drivers failing to see the motorcyclist is a very common cause of a motorcycle crash. Making it easier for the other driver to see you is a great preventative measure against this.

### Wear safety gear

Though not required in many states, wearing safety gear such as [helmets](https://www.lawfran.com/blog/2022/06/do-i-need-to-wear-a-motorcycle-helmet-in-florida/), boots, gloves, jackets, and pants can help prevent serious injuries. Helmets especially will protect your head in the event of a motorcycle crash, and gloves, jackets, and pants can help prevent road rash. Proper boots can help protect the feet and ankles in the event of a crash. Safety gear can help lessen the amount of medical care you may need in the event of a motorcycle crash.

### Be Weather-conscious

Always check the weather prior to riding. Inclement weather can decrease visibility and cause slick roadways. Avoiding these situations is a great way to [stay safe](https://www.lawfran.com/motorcycle-accident-lawyers/motorcycle-safety-tips-for-florida-bikers/).

### Watch out for the other guy

As a motorcyclist on the road, you take on the responsibility for your own safety and those around you. This includes watching out for other drivers. It is always best to play it safe by not trusting turn signals and always assuming the other person can&#8217;t see you.

## I was hurt in a motorcycle accident. Now what?

Being injured in a motorcycle crash in Bradenton, Fl. is scary. Motorcyclists suffering personal injury following a motorcycle accident can be severely traumatized and have a lot going through their minds. Knowing who to seek out for help and [how to go about recovering](https://www.lawfran.com/motorcycle-accident-lawyers/what-to-do-after-a-motorcycle-accident-in-florida/) compensation is important in [covering your medical expenses](https://www.lawfran.com/motorcycle-accident-lawyers/does-motorcycle-insurance-cover-medical-bills/) if insurance isn&#8217;t enough. 

### Seek Immediate Medical Attention

Before anything else, always [seek medical attention](https://www.lawfran.com/blog/2019/06/the-importance-of-going-to-the-hospital-after-an-accident/) by using your phone to call for help. Even if you believe that you came out of the motorcycle crash scuff-free, high adrenalin can mask symptoms of other serious injuries. Even though Florida is a no-fault state, if your injuries surpass your PIP insurance, you are still able to [file a claim](https://www.lawfran.com/motorcycle-accident-lawyers/how-to-file-an-insurance-claim/) against the other driver.

### Gather Evidence

Take personal notes as soon as possible to ensure you recall the situation. Gather evidence to support your case such as contacting witnesses and finding camera evidence. This will help you build your case and help calculate the amount of compensation you are entitled to after insurance. 

### Find A Motorcycle Attorney

Experienced Bradenton motorcycle accident lawyers will be the best tool in your toolbox when seeking compensation for the motorcycle crash.

### Recover Damages

Once a Bradenton motorcycle accident lawyer wins your case, you are able to concentrate on your recovery from your personal injury with peace of mind that your [medical bills](https://www.lawfran.com/blog/2022/05/im-receiving-medical-bills-in-the-mail-what-should-i-do-with-them/) are taken care of.

## What is the Claim Process?

[Navigating the claim process](https://www.lawfran.com/motorcycle-accident-lawyers/motorcycle-insurance-claim-process/) can be difficult and exhausting for someone unfamiliar with the practice. An experienced Bradenton motorcycle accident attorney can help lead you through this process and gain the compensation you deserve from your personal injury.

### Investigation

The discovery phase includes gathering and reviewing evidence for your case and building a case to recover compensation. This would include reviewing police reports, gathering witness testimonials, reviewing traffic laws and situational aspects to your particular case.

### Calculate Compensation

Motorcyclists often sustain very serious injuries in a motorcycle crash,, your Bradenton motorcycle accident lawyer will help you calculate the compensation to cover your medical expenses, as well as costs like property damage, pain and suffering, lost wages, or ongoing treatments like physical therapy or surgeries.

### Calculate Compensation

Motorcyclists often sustain very serious injuries in a motorcycle crash,, your Bradenton motorcycle accident lawyer will help you [calculate the compensation](https://www.lawfran.com/blog/2019/08/how-much-money-can-i-get-for-my-personal-injury-case/) to cover your medical expenses, as well as costs like property damage, pain and suffering, lost wages, or ongoing treatments like physical therapy or surgeries.

### Negotiations

Often, there are some back-and-forth negotiations that occur when fighting for a settlement. An experienced motorcycle accident attorney will be able to help you determine what fair compensation is, and will help do all the negotiations to get you the compensation you deserve.

## Does my case need to go to court?
