Gallatin Motorcycle Accident Lawyers

Any type of accident can be life-changing, but if you have been involved in a motorcycle accident, the injuries that you suffered can be particularly traumatic.

While Gallatin is consistently rated as a top place to live and raise a family, some of the area's roads and highways, notably the notorious Vietnam Veterans Boulevard, have been the site of many devastating traffic accidents over the years. When a motorcycle is involved in one of these accidents, the damage to the rider can be especially catastrophic.

If you were involved in a motorcycle accident in the area, you could be eligible to receive substantial compensation for your injuries. The Gallatin motorcycle accident lawyers at Hughes & Coleman Injury Lawyers can help. We offer a free, no-risk case evaluation and never charge a fee until we recover money for you. To schedule an appointment, call us today: 800-800-4600. We are available 24/7.

Since motorcycles lack the protective frame of a standard vehicle, as well as safety features such as seat belts and airbags, the effects of an accident can be traumatic, with severe and potentially life-changing injuries, such as head trauma, spinal injuries, broken bones, and paralysis.

As you struggle to recover and put your life back together after an accident, you might have questions and concerns such as the following:

• Will I be liable for my injuries or the other driver's?
• How will I be able to afford my medical bills that are piling up?
• What happens if I must miss work? How will I support myself?
• How can I prove that the accident was not my fault?
• How long will it take for me to receive compensation?
• What should I do if the insurance company offers me a quick settlement?

At Hughes & Coleman Injury Lawyers, our motorcycle accident team can answer these questions and guide you through the injury claims process. We know that the first few days and weeks after an accident can be overwhelming, and not just because of the physical pain you are experiencing. You also have many financial and legal issues to contend with. We want to take those burdens off your shoulders and place them on ours so that you can focus on what is most important: recovering and getting your life back.

As anyone who has been in a serious accident can attest, the to-do list piles up quickly. Your list might include any of the following:

• Doctor’s appointments
• Physical therapy
• Rehabilitation
• Hospital visits and surgeries
• Repair shop appointments
• Replacement vehicle shopping

Amid all this chaos, you might get a call from the insurance company, either yours or the other driver's, offering you a quick settlement. It can be tempting to take, especially if the offer seems reasonable and you have countless other things on your plate. Why not get the most important item — paying your medical bills — out of the way?

For one thing, an insurance company offer rarely includes all the damages you deserve. It is more likely to pay you just the bare minimum — your current medical bills, a few weeks of lost wages, and not much more. The offer will almost certainly omit anticipated future medical costs, reduced earning capacity, and emotional damages.

To get the compensation you deserve, you should get the team from Hughes & Coleman Injury Lawyers on your side. We have over 100 years of experience handling injury claims and know how to take on the insurance company to get you fair compensation. To schedule a free consultation, call 800-800-4600 today.

Although the insurance company's initial offer might not pay the full slate of compensation you are eligible to receive, our attorneys tabulate the damages you have suffered and fight to make sure you receive a settlement that covers all of them.

Motorcycle accident cases each have different circumstances and thus result in various settlements, but most of our clients receive offers that include some or all the following damages:

• Medical bills, both current and future;
• Lost earnings from work;
• Reduced future earning capacity;
• Pain and suffering;
• Loss of enjoyment of life;
• Mental anguish;
• And more.

To win the damages you deserve, we gather evidence and fight the insurance company when they try to pay you less. Our first goal is to obtain a fair settlement out of court, but if the insurance company does not cooperate, our attorneys will not hesitate to file a lawsuit and take your case all the way to a jury trial.

The stronger our case, and the more evidence we have, the better the potential outcome for you. For that reason, we put substantial time and energy into gathering proof and building a compelling case. We get right to work as soon as we take your case, interviewing witnesses, scouring police reports, and searching for other forms of evidence. This evidence might include:

• Photographs or video surveillance footage of the accident scene;
• Statements from eyewitnesses;
• Comments made by the at-fault driver or another party to the crash;
• Police reports;
• Accident reconstruction;
• Expert witness statements.

We spare nothing to make your case as compelling as it can be. It starts with a free consultation during which we evaluate your case and start mapping out a plan to get you the compensation you deserve.
