What makes motorcycle accidents unique in Colorado Springs are the weather and geographical conditions. For example, the state gets a lot of sudden hail. There could be unexpected black ice. There are steep inclines and declines or more sand and gravel on the roads.
Colorado Springs also has a lot of drivers from out of state. These people are not familiar with the geography and weather conditions, so that makes them not as good at navigating the roads safely.

In Colorado Springs, one of the unique aspects of motorcycle wreck cases is the importance of where the incident occurred and its cause. Roads that have a high volume of traffic can be dangerous for motorcycle riders because a number of factors are at play. First of all, there are more sudden stops and more stop-and-go traffic, which increases the risk of an accident.
There are also more aggressive drivers on these roads. These individuals may make split decisions or quick lane changes without checking their blind spots thoroughly, which exposes motorcyclists to danger.
Additionally, in high-traffic areas, some drivers get bored and do not pay close attention to the road. Their attention drifts from the road to all the millions of distractions that come with electronics.
A good personal injury attorney considers the various dynamics of a motorcycle accident by assessing and investigating the incident and its cause. The attorney should be prepared to get arguments from the insurance company that the motorcyclist was at fault and be able to address those issues.
Motorcyclists are harder to see, but that does not excuse a driver from hitting them. An experienced lawyer should be able to deal with the insurance company’s arguments in that regard and also deal with the unique medical treatment that is not present in an ordinary auto accident.
The injuries that a motorcyclist sustains may be more extreme and different than those typically involved in a car accident, so an attorney should be able to handle this aspect as well.
An experienced lawyer can help someone with all of the unique aspects of motorcycle accident cases in Colorado Springs by guiding them through all phases of their claim and medical treatment. When they get in a motorcycle accident, they are going to need medical treatment, which may not be covered by their health insurance.
An experienced attorney should be able to guide a claimant through getting the treatment they need and help them find financing for it if their health insurance does not cover it. The at-fault driver’s insurance does not have to pay the individual until the conclusion of a case, and an individual may need medical treatment immediately. In these situations, an injured motorcyclist may need to enter into financing plans for their treatment, which a lawyer could help with.
Additionally, a lawyer could help them in dealing with the insurance company. Most insurance companies have their profits in mind, so they may try to push early and low settlements that are not in the individual’s best interests.
In general, a dedicated lawyer should be able to help with communication and negotiations, determine if a settlement offer is fair, and receive compensation for a claimant’s losses. For help on your claim, schedule an initial consultation with someone from our caring legal team.
I was uneasy about reaching out to a law firm after being in an accident that left me injured and my vehicle totaled. I don’t care for the idea of suing for what was very clearly an accident. However, after learning more about the overall process of working with a professional team to navigate the murky waters of the insurance world, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the experience wasn’t as gross as I’d originally felt about it. Everyone at Springs Law Group is very professional, provides quick responses, communicates with patience and kindness, and remained detail oriented the entire time.
