Have you been injured in a motorcycle accident in Shepherdsville or anywhere in Bullitt County, Kentucky? The number of motorcycle accidents resulting in injury will continue to increase through spring and into summer. My name is John Schmidt, and I have represented injured motorcyclists for more than 25 years here in the greater Louisville region. Those who are responsible for your injuries as a motorcycle rider or passenger must be held accountable for their actions.
Unfortunately, one of the most common quotes in a police report associated with those injured in a motorcycle accident is, “I didn’t see them.” Many motorcycle injury accidents occur when a car abruptly changes lanes without looking or pulls out from a side street into the path of an oncoming motorcyclist.
Motorcyclists and their passengers have less protection than those who travel in most motor vehicles. Some of the most common injuries for former clients who were injured on a motorcycle include:
- Head Injuries or Traumatic Brain Injury
- Broken bones and fractures
- Broken ribs, legs, or arms
- Neck and spine injury
- Road rash
A motorcycle is no match for the weight of most motor vehicles. The sheer difference in the size and weight of the other vehicle means those injured in a motorcycle accident in Shepherdsville may experience permanent injury or even lose their lives. This is why it is important to seek the advice of an experienced Bullitt County personal injury attorney. We represent injured motorcyclists and their passengers in personal injury claims. We also represent the family of those who lose their lives in a fatal motor vehicle accident in wrongful death claims.
The Law Offices of John Schmidt & Associates will help to hold those who are responsible for the accident and your injuries financially accountable for what has happened. You and your family need to focus on treatment, physical therapy, and recovery. Your personal injury claim must cover all past, present, and future medical expenses, compensation for any time missed from work, and a fair and just settlement for having to endure and recover from your injuries.
