Legal Representation for Motorcycle Accident Victims
If you’re a motorcycle accident victim, you should know:
- Motorcycle accident victims have the right to claim financial compensation in South Carolina.
- Your rights are the same as other accident victims. If you’re hurt by someone else’s negligence, they may be legally liable to pay compensation.
- Negligence can be as simple as a traffic violation. For example, changing lanes without looking or entering an intersection without the right of way can make a driver responsible for a motorcycle accident.
- Injuries can be serious. You deserve fair compensation for whatever injuries you have.
- Economic and non-economic damages are payable based on your actual injuries and suffering.
- The insurance company wants you to settle for as little as possible. They’re not going to offer information on what your claim is worth. You must prove your case.
- Sometimes, you must fight the insurance company in court or through strategic negotiations.
- At Schiller & Hamilton, we represent people like you. We’re committed to representing injured victims and families.
Getting fair compensation as a motorcycle accident victim isn’t easy. While you’re suffering from serious injuries, you must build your case, value damages and take legal action. At Schiller & Hamilton, we undertake these important tasks for you.
