Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcycle accidents often result in serious injuries due to the rider’s lack of protection compared to other vehicles.

Key Factors in Motorcycle Accident Cases

Visibility Issues. Motorcycles are smaller and often less visible to other drivers, increasing the risk of accidents.
Driver Negligence. Many motorcycle accidents result from other drivers failing to yield or check blind spots.
Road Hazards. Debris, potholes, and uneven road surfaces pose a higher risk to motorcyclists.
Helmet and Gear Usage. Alberta law requires helmet use, which may impact compensation if injuries result from non-compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a lawyer if the insurance company has offered a settlement?

Even if you’ve been offered a settlement, it’s wise to consult a lawyer before accepting. Insurers often aim to minimize payouts, and our team can help determine if the offer is fair or if additional compensation may be available.

How long do I have to file a motor vehicle accident claim in Alberta?

In Alberta, the standard limitation period for filing a personal injury claim is two years from the date of the accident. It’s crucial to begin the process as soon as possible to gather evidence and meet all deadlines. We can help ensure your claim is filed within the required timeframe.

Can I claim compensation if I was partially at fault for the accident?

Yes, Alberta follows a “contributory negligence” system, meaning you can still receive compensation even if you were partially at fault. However, your compensation may be reduced according to your level of responsibility. We work to protect your rights and maximize your compensation.

What should I do immediately following a motor vehicle accident?

After ensuring your safety, seek medical attention, report the accident to the police, and document as much information as possible, including photos, witness contacts, and insurance details. Contacting a lawyer early on can help protect your rights and secure evidence.
