We represent motorcycle accident victims
Motorcycle accidents often result in serious injuries or even wrongful death. The lack of protection puts the rider at risk for serious back or brain injury. While sometimes people automatically assume that these are a consequence of irresponsible riding, the attorneys at Curran & Desharnais, P.C., know differently. If you or a family member suffered serious injuries from a motorcycle accident, you need to contact a Massachusetts motorcycle accident attorney.
Our firm knows how to build a strong case using expert witnesses and accident reconstructionists from all over the country. Our firm also will use the latest technology, sometimes including footage of the accident scene obtained from the Department of Transportation or Google maps to demonstrate how your injury occurred.
There are a few things you should know when filing a motorcycle accident claim:
- Take photographs: Taking photographs of the accident scene and damaged motorcycle or scooter provides visual evidence for your case.
- Get insurance information: Ask the other party and any witnesses for their name, phone number, address and insurance information for possible use at a later date.
- Keep the motorcycle or scooter: A damaged motorcycle is a great starting point for accident reconstructionists. It also serves as evidence during trial or negotiations. Even if severely damaged, the vehicle should be preserved if possible.
- Talk only to your attorney: Giving statements to the investigators, newspapers or insurance companies can harm your case. Words can be twisted and negative statements can be used against you in court.
