Cambridge Motorcycle Accident Lawyer

Motorcyclists are often stereotyped as reckless drivers, a fact that insurance companies may try to use against you in a personal injury claim—even if you did nothing to cause the accident. Do not leave your future up to chance: our Cambridge motorcycle accident attorneys are prepared to start advocating for you from the moment you call.

GED Lawyers is a law firm with a history of winning. To find out how our Cambridge personal injury lawyers can fight to protect your right to fair compensation, call today. We charge no attorneys’ fees unless and until you win your case.

What Makes Motorcycle Accident Cases Different?

Every kind of personal injury claim is unique and presents its own challenges and opportunities. With motorcycle accident claims, you might face:

• More severe injuries than other accident victims due to the relative lack of protection motorcycles offer.
• The complexities of motorcycle insurance laws in Massachusetts. Unlike a car accident victim, you may not have the option of recovering compensation through a personal injury protection policy.
• Liable parties and insurance companies who try to blame you for the accident so they do not have to pay you just compensation.

Given all of this, and given that you should stay focused on recovering from your injuries, it makes sense to hire a Cambridge motorcycle accident lawyer to assist you with your legal action. GED Lawyers has been representing accident victims since 1995, so we know how to:

• Explain your rights and options during a free case assessment
• Investigate each accident very carefully and gather evidence that can help us prove your case
• Negotiate with willing insurance companies and pressure them to pay the settlement you need and deserve
• Prepare for court by holding mock trials that allow us to test and refine our strategies
• Stay in touch with you throughout the legal process so you always know what is happening and have the opportunity to ask questions

You do not want to hire just any law firm to handle your case: you want a Cambridge lawyer who has handled motorcycle accident cases in your area and is familiar with the various laws, rules, and procedures that apply. Call GED Lawyers now and pay nothing until we recover damages for you.

Our Cambridge Motorcycle Injury Lawyers Can Fight for You

Motorcycles are fun and freeing to ride, but motorcyclists often suffer severe injuries when other vehicles fail to take proper precautions. It is every driver’s responsibility to:

• Bear in mind that they share the road with smaller vehicles like motorcycles and plan accordingly
• Stay alert and attentive so they can spot and react to the presence of other vehicles quickly
• Give motorcycles plenty of room to maneuver and yield the right of way when required

When drivers fail to follow these basic rules, responsible riders like you can pay the price. A personal injury attorney from our firm can pursue maximum compensation for losses like:

• Medical expenses
• Loss of wages, employment, and/or earning capacity
• Damage to your motorcycle
• Out-of-pocket expenses
• Physical pain and suffering
• Emotional distress
• Reduced quality of life
• Partial or total disability

Our legal team can assess your situation and tell you which kinds of damages you are entitled to collect. Then we can approach the insurance company and ask them to pay for everything the liable party’s negligence has taken from you and your family.

Preventing and Reacting to Motorcycle Accidents in Cambridge

Per the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT), the state saw nearly 2,000 motorcycle accidents in 2023. Motorcyclists can do their part to keep themselves and Massachusetts roadways safe by:

• Maintaining their bikes and not riding if there is a mechanical problem
• Not riding in bad weather
• Obeying all traffic laws
• Wearing protective gear

While taking these actions is critical, they do not stop others from behaving recklessly, and they cannot prevent all accidents. Because accidents are so unexpected and chaotic, it can be difficult to know what you should do after a motorcycle crash. Here are some important actions that can protect both your health and your legal rights:

• Get out of the road. If possible, move to the side of the road and out of the flow of traffic so you and your bike do not get hit again.
• Call 911. The Cambridge Police Department and emergency medical services can make sure everyone is safe.
• Collect evidence. Take photos of everything, get the at-fault party’s information, and do not throw away any paperwork you receive after the fact (e.g., medical bills).
• Limit what you say. The police will want to know what happened. Answer honestly but briefly. Do not speak to insurers or anyone else without legal support, and do not post about the accident on social media.
• Speak to our motorcycle injury lawyers. The sooner you learn about your rights, the sooner you can act on them and start pursuing the financial compensation you need.

GED Lawyers urges you to seek medical care first, then reach out to our Cambridge motorcycle injury attorneys for legal assistance. We can champion your rights while you focus on feeling better.
