How To Deal With A Car Accident in Simi Valley, CA

2015 witnessed a dramatic surge of motor accidents. Car accidents hit a record high mainly due to a stronger economy and affordable fuel prices. California was one of the hardest-hit states.

The unfortunate bit is that the ramifications of a car accident follow you long after the incident. If you are injured, you suffer physically, emotionally, and even financially. Simi Valley car accident lawyers understand the trauma and confusion that comes after a car accident.

No one is quick to accept liability. Car accident cases are often marred by conflict and dispute. All the parties involved will try to bring evidence to show that they were not responsible.  Most car accident cases are settled outside of court. For this, we have lawyers who have good negotiating skills. However, should we feel that the case needs to go to trial, we do not back away from a court settlement.

Simi Valley Motorcycle and Bicycle Accidents

Driving on busy Simi Valley, California roads can be dangerous for individuals in cars or trucks. Unfortunately, the level of risk is elevated when a person is on a motorcycle or a bicycle. The mistaken belief is that motorcyclists or bicyclists are at greater risk when on the road because of their reckless behavior. However, study after study clearly shows that motorcyclists are among some of the safest drivers.

The danger comes because many truck and automobile drivers do not see or do not look out for two-wheeled vehicles. When they do see them, it is often too late. Drivers of four-wheeled vehicles do not adequately understand how to drive around a motorcyclist or bicyclist.

They may not leave enough room between themselves and the motorcycle or bike. They may break too quickly, or they may not break soon enough. All of these dangerous driving habits put motorcycle riders at risk. When an accident happens involving an automobile and a motorcycle or a bike, it is usually the motorcyclist or bicyclist who ends up with the most severe injuries.

This is because the vehicle that they are using is smaller, and unlike trucks or passenger cars that are surrounded by plastic, metal, and rubber, a motorcycle rider only has the protection provided by the clothing they are wearing and their protective helmet. They have no seat belt, no airbag, no external protection. Injuries that motorcyclists and bicyclists experience include:

• Spinal Cord Injuries That Can Result in Paralysis
• Broken Bones
• Amputated Limbs
• Life-Altering Traumatic Brain Injuries
• Severe Skin Burns or Road Rash

We at El Dabe Ritter Trial Lawyers understand the unique challenges that motorcyclists and bicyclists face when they are on the road. We have experience and the desire to help them when they are the victims of an accident.

Unless you are an expert, it can be very hard to calculate or even estimate the value of your claim. On your own, you may only consider medical bills or the damage to the property. However, there are many other considerations such as:

• the need for short or long-term care
• mental trauma
• pain

An experienced personal accident lawyer will ask the relevant question before calculating your claim amount. We fight for your cause, to secure for you full and fair compensation for your injury.

Filing claims is time-bound

The statute of limitations puts a restriction on the time frame victims have to file a claim. After an accident, you have a period of between one and two years to sue. If you do not file your case within this period, then you give up the right to sue.

In light of this, any hope of compensation lies in making a claim promptly. Understandably, you may still be dealing with the trauma of an accident, and this is why you need a lawyer to represent you.
