The Most Important Things to Know If You are Injured in a Motorcycle Accident:
- You need to see a doctor or trauma physician within 24 to 48 hours of the accident, even if you don’t think you have experienced any injury. (Many injuries actually take days or weeks to show any symptoms.) If you don’t see a doctor within 48 hours of the accident, the insurance company can and will deny your otherwise valid personal injury claim.
- Do not speak with the any insurance representative or adjuster (even your own agent) until you have spoken with Rivers Morrell. Insurance representatives do not have your best interests at heart. They owe their loyalty to their employer. Adjusters are highly trained interrogators who have one job: pay you the absolute minimum possible on your personal injury claim.
- Call Rivers Morrell, a local personal injury attorney with more than 40 years of proven, successful experience for a free and substantive consultation at (949) 305-1400.
- According to the IRS and the Insurance Research Institute itself those who are represented by an experienced personal injury attorney (like Rivers Morrell) will receive at least more than three times more than those without a lawyer.

Listen to Eric’s Personal Story:
If you’ve been injured as a motorcycle driver or passenger you probably have several questions:
What is my injury claim worth?
How can Rivers Morrell make a difference in my personal injury claim?
What is the most important thing to do after any collision?
Remember, the insurance adjuster in your case has only one job:
I know. I represented the car insurance companies for almost two decades earlier in my career. This experience helps me to be an even better attorney for my clients. I know the strategies of insurance companies and their adjusters, and how they work to protect their profits.
This experience also drove me to dedicate my work to represent those who were injured and to protect their legal rights and financial interests. I work not only to hold insurance companies responsible to the extent of policy coverage, I work with medical providers to negotiate lower fees so that you are able to keep as much of your injury settlement as possible. This provides the maximum amount of money for you to recover from your injuries and move forward with your life.

Motorcycle accidents are caused by any number of factors. Many other drivers on the road fail to see motorcycles. Sometimes the motorcyclist is blamed for the accident. Lane splitting in California or poor road conditions also lead to increased crashes. Lane splitting is permitted in California in many circumstances.
Whatever the cause of the motorcycle accident, you need protection. Motorcyclists have less protection than other drivers and the likelihood of serious injuries is higher. Unfortunately, motorcyclists may also face more obstacles in seeking compensation.
