After a motorcycle accident, insurance companies will often attempt to protect their bottom line and settle your claim for the least amount of money possible. That is why your attorney at Caddell Reynolds Law Firm will fiercely advocate on your behalf, doing everything ethically possible to seek the full and fair compensation you and your family need to recover. After all, you should be able to focus on healing, not fighting insurance companies. We’ll take this burden off of your shoulders.
Motorcycle accidents are common and the resulting claims for compensation can be complicated. While Arkansas has a variety of laws in place to protect motorcyclists and other drivers on the road, and when these laws aren’t followed, serious injury or even death can result. More often than not, motorcycle accidents are the result of other drivers, such as those who make sudden lane changes, rear-end the motorcyclist, or generally are not paying attention to the road. In these cases, your lawyer will look at the circumstances of your accident and build a strong case tailored to your unique circumstances.

In states such as Oklahoma and Arkansas, many auto insurance companies take a fairly hostile stance against motorcyclists injured in an accident. While some states specifically allow insurance companies to deny some types of insurance coverage, such as Medpay coverage or first-party coverage, to motorcycle drivers, in other states, insurance companies tend to take a very skeptical attitude towards individuals injured while riding their motorcycle.
One of the reasons they employ such skepticism is that they know people hurt while riding their motorcycle have a higher likelihood they will sustain more costly injuries. Since the insurance companies worry that the damages they would have to pay out to an injured motorcyclist may be very high, they go to great lengths to deny liability in the first place. In order to deny liability, the insurance company must determine that the driver they cover is not legally responsible.
The tendency of insurance companies to take this tactic means that those injured in such accidents need to be represented by counsel. They will need representation so that the insurance companies may worry that the injured party will have their attorney file suit against the driver covered by that insurance company. If the insurance company is concerned that they will have to pay for the defense of a possibly untenable decision about the liability of their covered driver, then they may be receptive to arriving at a negotiated settlement prior to the case going in to litigation.
If the motorcyclist’s attorney can succeed at getting the insurance company to admit the driver of their covered vehicle was liable, the injured party will be able to seek the same kinds of damage awards as a person injured while in a car.
