MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENTS
One of the most common causes of motorcycle accidents is automobile drivers failure to be vigilant. To make matter worse, the investigation into these accidents are complicated by the fact that most people, including law enforcement, usually think the motorcyclist is always at fault.
WELCOME TO THE DENNIS LAW FIRM
Atlanta motorcyclist attorney Andre Dennis will aggressively fight to make sure each motorcyclist side of the accident is heard. In addition to the bias most motorcyclist face, another issue motorcycle riders have to deal with is insurance companies. The insurance company for the automobile driver will quickly try to pen the blame on the motorcyclist or use deceitful tactics to lower the value of the case. Some of the insurance company tactics include:
- Calling immediately after the accident trying to get a statement, which is usually recorded.
- Trying to settle quickly before medical bills, lost wages, & damages are known.
- Not taking good photos are their insured vehicle after the accident

YOUR RIGHTS
The State of Georgia requires drivers to maintain minimum insurance coverage of $25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident. Also, a motorcycle rider may have the right to coverage from insurance policies of an employer, rental car company, or from an “umbrella policy” or family member, if the policies are available and they require additional coverage. If a motorcycle accident is caused by conditions of the road or poor lighting on the road, a government agency may share liability in the accident as well.
NEGLIGENCE UNDER GEORGIA LAW
In Georgia, liability for negligence requires four elements: The defendant owed a duty to a plaintiff The defendant breached the duty The plaintiff was injured as a result of the defendant’s breach; and The injury caused the plaintiff to incur damages.
Determining the right value of a motorcycle accident with injuries is extremely complicated. It includes evaluating the extent of the injuries, economic losses, and liability issues related to the accident, and prior injuries if they exist. Insurance companies have years of experience in handling injuries from motorcycle accidents and will use all of it to lower your settlement.

There are 5 “Golden Rules” we recommend that all car accident victims adhere to in order to protect their rights and interests:
- No matter how small the accident is, ALWAYS get an accident report.
- Take photos of any vehicle damage, as well as the scene of the accident.
- Contact your insurance company right away. Discuss ONLY the accident. DO NOT discuss whether you are injured.
- Even if you do not think you are hurt or have only minor injuries, see your doctor or visit an urgent care or emergency medical facility as soon as possible. Not every injury manifests itself right away.
