From the wind in your hair to the freedom of the open road, riding a motorcycle is an exhilarating experience. However, when a motorcycle accident occurs, the thrill can quickly become a nightmare. On top of that, in nearly every motorcycle accident case the motorcyclist is unfairly blamed for causing the collision – whether they have any fault or not.
When another motorist acts with negligence, riders are vulnerable to life-altering injuries, making it difficult to get back on their feet. If you suffered motorcycle accident damages in Santee, California, speak with an experienced lawyer to pursue the full justice and compensation you deserve.
At Jassim Law, we know that riders face a long road to recovery after sustaining motorcycle accident injuries. At the outset, we know from handling numerous motorcycle accident cases that we must act quickly, and aggressively with all the resources we have able to prevent the motorcyclist from being unfairly blamed for causing or contributing to the collision. For example, often motorcyclists are blamed for “lane splitting” which is actually legal and safe. The correct term should be “lane sharing.”
Often, injured motorcyclists need extensive medical treatment, time off work, and vehicle repairs or replacements. Sometimes health insurance is inadequate, or does not provide for the quality and extent of medical care required. As Santee motorcycle accident attorneys, we are proud to help you get the best medical care available – with or without health insurance.
Unfortunately, insurance companies nearly always seek to diminish, minimize or deny claims based on misconceptions and prejudices against riders. With two decades of experience, we fight for the compensation and justice you deserve and advocate for your legal rights at every step of the legal process.
Motorcyclists have an equal right to use our roadways, and are entitled to expect other motorists to keep a proper lookout, to drive safely, and quite simply share the road with motorcyclists.
We want to make our communities safer by holding negligent parties accountable, and that involves helping motorcycle accident victims just like you.
