Santa Clarita Motorcycle Accident Lawyer

Motorcycle Accident Attorney in Santa Clarita    

Almost 5,000 individuals were killed in motorcycle accidents in the United States in 2006. In a study done by the University of Southern California with funds from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, it was discovered that in approximately 75 percent of these accidents, a collision occurred with another vehicle, usually an automobile. In two-thirds of these multiple-vehicle accidents, the motorcyclist's right of way was violated by the passenger vehicle's driver. In the post-crash phase, fuel system leaks and spills occurred in 62 percent of the motorcycle accidents, comprising a fire hazard.

Because motorcyclists are much more physically vulnerable than automobile drivers, accidents involving them may result in devastating injuries and even death. A motorcyclist may sustain brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, head trauma, broken bones, disfigurement, loss of limb, burn injuries, severe emotional trauma, and other serious catastrophic consequences. If you or a loved one have suffered injuries from a motorcycle accident caused by the negligence or misconduct of another party, it is advisable to speak with a Santa Clarita motorcycle accident lawyer at our firm as soon as possible.
