Tampa Motorcycle Accident Lawyer

Motorcycle accidents in the Tampa area can be devastating for riders. They cause severe injuries, property damage, and other losses. It can be hard to know what to do after a motorcycle accident, especially when the medical expenses and everyday bills keep piling up. It can be hard to know how to go about what you already know you need to do.

If a person caused your motorcycle accident or another party not on the scene is liable for it, you may be eligible to recover compensation from them. A Tampa motorcycle accident lawyer from Dismuke Law is ready to help you with your case. You can start today with a free consultation where we will review your legal options and next steps.

Motorcycle Accidents Can Cause Severe Injuries

Motorcyclists are at a higher risk for accidents for several reasons. For example, motorcycles are much smaller than cars, so drivers do not always see them. They also have limited protection, so when accidents happen, they can suffer severe injuries. While wearing a helmet can help prevent serious head injuries, cyclists can still experience fractures, spinal cord injuries, or blunt force trauma, among other severe injuries.

After a motorcycle accident occurs, injured riders may need comprehensive medical treatment, which can be expensive. For example, you may need emergency medical care, and doctors may need to run specialized diagnostic tests to determine how much damage you suffered. After initial care, you may require corrective surgery, physical therapy, or rehab.

It is essential to get the medical care you need after a motorcycle accident and follow any recommendations for the care your doctor gives you. You should also track the costs of the treatment you receive and any medical bills you receive.

What Compensation Can I Receive in a Tampa Motorcycle Accident Case?

The exact amount you receive in compensation will depend on several factors like the severity of your injuries, the losses you suffered, your expected recovery time, and how your injuries can affect you in the long term. More than one party may also be responsible for your accident, which can also affect the compensation you could receive. For example, a motorcycle manufacturer, another driver, or groups overseeing road maintenance may all have contributed to your accident. In that case, they may each owe you damages.

Compensation should help cover the accident’s damages. For example, you may be able to receive compensation to cover your medical bills. If you had to take time off from work, compensation could help to cover your lost income, wages, and benefits. You may also be able to recover compensation for non-economic damages such as pain and suffering, disfigurement and scarring, or others.

Our Tampa motorcycle accident lawyer will review all your losses from the collision and advise you on the compensation you can request from the liable party. We will not know the value of your case for sure until it is complete. However, once we’ve had time to go over the facts of your case, we may have a better idea of how much you may be able to recover in compensation.

How Long do I Have to File a Motorcycle Accident Lawsuit?

In Florida, you generally have four years from the accident date to file a personal injury lawsuit, according to Florida Statutes § 95.11(3)(a). If you lost a loved one in a fatal motorcycle accident, you have only two years to file a wrongful death lawsuit, as outlined in Florida Statutes § 95.11(4)(d).

Many injury cases settle outside of court, mainly when all parties reach a settlement agreement. However, consulting with a lawyer early on after your accident can be helpful. Early consultation ensures you don’t miss the deadline for filing a lawsuit if that is what you decide to do.
