ROSENBERG LAW, PENNSYLVANIA & NEW JERSEY MOTORCYCLE INJURY LAWYER

Drivers know that motorcycles are the most vulnerable motorists on the road. Because of your love to ride, you also have to put up with the vulnerability and danger of minimal protection. Since motorcycles do not have seat belts or a frame between you and the open road, a crash, or accident, can throw you off your seat, which can result in serious injuries or death.  Approximately ten percent of all motorcycle accidents that occur in the U.S. result in death. Motorcyclists have the same rights and responsibilities as other drivers on the road. Collisions with motorcycles most often occur with trucks or automobiles, where a negligent driver never even sees the motorcyclist before maneuvering in any given direction. Other accidents can occur because of an unexpected crash with a fixed object.

 Our greater Philadelphia area motorcycle accident attorneys fight for your rights so that you receive compensation for damages and injuries sustained in all motorcycle accidents in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.

 APPROVED HELMETS REQUIRED

Many states, including New Jersey, require that all motorcycle riders wear helmets.  Pennsylvania motorcyclists who are under age 21 must wear helmets, while those over the age of 21 have to wear helmets if they have had licenses for fewer than two calendar years or have not taken designated safety courses. Ask our Bucks or Montgomery County injury attorneys for the rules that apply in your state. All helmets should be of the type approved by the Department of Transportation.

 WE UNDERSTAND THE NATURE OF YOUR INJURIES

Our greater Philadelphia motorcycle accident lawyers have handled some of the most complex cases with successful outcomes. Common motorcyclist injuries include the following:

• Fractures

• Burns and scarring

• Rib fractures

• Internal injuries

• Herniated disk in the neck or back

• Motorcycle-specific injuries can also include the following:

• Helmet crushing

• Skidding

• Sliding and dropping your bike

• Road rash

• Occipital fractures

• Traumatic brain injuries, including your temporal lobe and pre-cortical lobes

Catastrophic and traumatic injuries can include brain damage and other neuropsychological injuries, as well as paraplegic injuries, and orthopedic problems. After certain motorcycle accidents your doctor may tell you that you need surgery and physical therapy. All of this may sound new and foreign if you have never been in an accident before. However, these injuries, diagnostic tests, and therapies all have terms and conditions that our attorneys understand. Rosenberg Law has worked with a majority of varying motorcycle accidents and understanding these is imperative to building a strong claim and case in order to fight for compensation and damages.
