MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENTS I Frequently Asked Questions

Q.	Why should I contact an attorney with motorcycle experience?
Q.	What compensation may I receive in a motorcycle accident case?
Q.	How long does it take to recover damages?
Q.	Does wearing a helmet make a difference in an accident?
Q.	When should I accept a check from an insurance company?

Remember that the laws in Iowa, Nebraska, Missouri, Kansas, Minnesota, Wisconsin, North and South Dakota and surrounding areas are different. You should consult with a motorcycle injury lawyer who is familiar with the laws of the State in which you were injured and has experience taking on large insurance companies in the pursuit of compensation for victims of personal injury accidents.

QUESTION: Does wearing a helmet make a difference in an accident?

ANSWER: Although you may still seek compensation for your injuries if you were not wearing a helmet, it may make a large difference in the compensation amounts you may receive. For example, if head or neck injuries were not involved, and your injuries would have been received whether a helmet was worn or not, more than likely this will not change your compensation. A personal injury attorney with motorcycle accident experienced would be able to assist you in your specific circumstances.
