Columbia South Carolina Motorcycle Accident Lawyers

It's one of the most exciting forms of transportation. Unfortunately, motorcycles present significant risk to operators, more than 38,000 of whom were killed on their bikes in a 24-year period. While "fender benders" are common and cause little damage to passenger vehicles, motorcyclists face far more danger when they collide with other cars and vehicles. In addition to property damage, they can face a lifetime of medical bills and expensive treatment as they recover from lacerations, broken bones, facial disfigurement and other injuries. Some are not so lucky and face paralysis or even death.

The statistics are scary - a study by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found that a motorcyclist is up to 16 times more likely to die in a crash than the occupant of a passenger vehicle and up to three times more likely to be injured. Less physical protection against a crash means that motorcyclists need excellent reaction times and driving skills. But even the most experienced biker can't protect against inclement weather conditions, unsuitable roads, and drivers who don't know how to share the road with motorcycles.

While states are becoming more aggressive with laws to protect motorcyclists from accidents, including mandatory helmet laws in many states, the law can't prevent motorcycle accidents from happening. And a motorcycle crash can lead to a confusing journey through hospital rooms, insurance offices, and even court as you try to get compensation for your injuries and pay for your medical treatment. When negligent drivers, defective parts or unsafe roads cause a motorcycle crash, the operator has the right to sue in civil court to get compensation to help cover treatment of their injuries (known as "damages"). But how can you fight and win your motorcycle accident case in court?
