Injuries Caused By Motorcycle Accidents
Every motorcycle accident is unique. Many of these accidents occur because of other drivers’ negligence and recklessness, such as speeding, tailgating, vehicle blind spots, sudden stops, and dooring. The wide range of factors that can cause and contribute to motorcycle accidents means that there is a wide range of injuries and health issues they can cause
Our motorcycle accident lawyers have worked with cases involving:
Brain injuries. Traumatic brain injuries are among the most serious consequences of motorcycle accidents, often resulting in cognitive impairment, memory loss, and permanent neurological damage that affects every aspect of a victim's life.
Road rash. This painful injury occurs when a rider's skin scrapes against the pavement during a crash, causing severe abrasions that can lead to permanent scarring, infection, and the need for multiple skin grafts or reconstructive surgeries.
Bone fractures. Motorcyclists frequently suffer broken bones in crashes, ranging from simple fractures that heal with proper treatment to complex compound fractures that require multiple surgeries and extensive rehabilitation.
Spine injuries. Spinal cord damage from motorcycle accidents can result in partial or complete paralysis, affecting a victim's mobility and requiring lifelong medical care and adaptive equipment.
Burns. Motorcycle accidents can cause severe burns from contact with hot engine parts, fuel fires, or friction with the road surface, often requiring extensive treatment and leaving permanent scarring.
Amputation. The traumatic forces involved in motorcycle crashes can result in the loss of limbs, fundamentally altering a victim's ability to work, perform daily activities, and maintain their quality of life.
Organ loss. Internal injuries from motorcycle accidents can be so severe that they result in the loss or permanent damage of vital organs, requiring ongoing medical treatment and significantly impacting life expectancy.
Lifelong disabilities. Many motorcycle accident victims face permanent disabilities that affect their ability to work, care for themselves, or enjoy activities they once loved, creating both financial and emotional hardships.
Disfigurement. Serious scarring and disfigurement from motorcycle accidents can have profound psychological effects and may require multiple reconstructive surgeries that extend the recovery process for years.
Many of these injuries can lead to lasting damage. As a result of a motorcycle accident, some injured bikers are never able to ride a motorcycle again. Our team of experienced and highly trained motorcycle accident attorneys at The Truitt Law Firm can help you recover as much as possible from your accident by conducting a thorough investigation and holding those responsible for a collision liable for their actions.
