Obtain Evidence of Negligence

Determining liability means we must show that the other driver was somehow negligent. While many motorists do not intend to hurt others, their actions still result in financial losses, physical harm, and emotional distress for injured parties. Our Upper Darby motorcycle accident attorneys must:

• Establish a duty of care: Our lawyers must determine if the driver had a duty to act in a certain way to prevent harm. When it comes to vehicle crashes, drivers owe a duty of care to everyone else on the road.
• Demonstrate a breach in this standard of care: Next, our team must show that the driver did not uphold this duty. For example, drunk or distracted driving is inherently dangerous and counts as a breach.
• Show causation between the driver’s actions and your motorcycle crash: It’s not enough to only show a breach in the standard of care—our team must be able to show a direct link between the other driver’s actions and your accident.
• Prove that you have damages and losses: Another important factor in proving negligence is showing that you have injuries, financial losses, and other damages from this accident.

Proof of the above are crucial for any motorcycle collision. Some evidence common in motorcycle accident cases include:

• The rider’s account of the collision
• Eyewitness accounts of the collision
• Video footage of the crash
• Photographs of damage to the motorcycle and any other vehicle(s) involved in the accident

Your lawyer will quickly pursue all evidence that helps prove fault for your accident.

Document Your Damages

Your Upper Darby motorcycle accident lawyer from Kalikhman & Rayz will tell your story, and that means diving into the many ways your injuries and losses have impacted your life. We will consult directly with your medical providers, mental health service providers, and anyone else who can testify to your damages.

We will have these experts discuss your physical health and outlook, and what difficulties you may encounter because of your injuries. We can also speak to mental health professionals and even your friends and family about the emotional and personal struggles you are facing. Your own testimony about your losses is just as important, and we make sure your voice is heard.

Negotiate a Settlement (or Multiple Settlements) for You

Our team will fight for the financial recovery you deserve. We are always prepared to take legal action and go to trial, which allows us to negotiate from a position of strength and confidence.
