What Are My Rights In Filing A Motorcycle Accident Claim? 

When a motorcycle accident happens due to the reckless actions of others involved, you have the right to hold them accountable for damages you suffer in a claim. At Harris Personal Injury Lawyers, our Huntington Beach motorcycle accident attorneys can guide you in the options available, which include:

• File a claim against the at-fault driver’s insurer: While the at-fault driver's insurance may cover some of your losses, dealing with these companies can prove challenging. It is common practice for them to either deny, delay, or downplay claims. This is one of many reasons you need our Huntington Beach motorcycle accident attorneys on your side. We negotiate with insurers on your behalf, helping ensure you get the maximum amount in any settlements.  
• File a motorcycle accident lawsuit: In the event an insurance settlement cannot be reached, the driver is uninsured, or your injuries are severe, you may be able to file lawsuit against the at-fault driver through the Orange County Civil Courts. At Harris Personal Injury Lawyers, we can guide you through the process. We gather evidence on your behalf, file the appropriate legal documents, make compelling arguments before the judge or jury, and take the steps needed to ensure any judgments are paid.

What If The Person Responsible For My Motorcycle Accident Leaves The Scene?

In an effort to avoid responsibility for their actions, it is not uncommon for at-fault drivers in Huntington Beach motorcycle accidents to flee the scene. In these cases, our legal team can help you identify them so they can be brought to justice. This includes working with local law enforcement, alerting the general public, and visiting local repair shops, where the at-fault driver may have taken their damaged vehicle.
