Motorcycle Accident Attorneys in Phoenix
Even the most experienced motorcycle rider is at risk of being involved in a motorcycle accident. Negligent drivers, drivers who are texting and driving, and drunk drivers put thousands of motorcyclists at risk every day. In fact, cars making left-hand turns account for 40% of all motorcycle accidents. Motorcyclists are also at higher risk when driving at night or in dangerous weather conditions.
It is always recommended that motorcyclists wear helmets, protective leather gear, and follow all basic safety protocols. Still, accidents can occur at any time and result in traumatic or fatal injuries. If you or a loved one has experienced a motorcycle accident, the top Phoenix personal injury attorneys at Cruz & Associates are here to help you.
How to Proceed After a Motorcycle Accident
Approximately 75% of motorcycle accidents are caused by the vehicle driver, not the motorcycle. If you’ve just been in an accident and you’re capable, call the police immediately. Make sure everybody involved stays present at the scene and is willing to answer the police honestly. Then, you’ll want to contact all insurance companies involved. Finally and most importantly, call Cruz & Associates at our Phoenix office so we can begin helping you through your case.
