El Monte Motorcycle Accident Lawyer | San Gabriel Valley
"I didn't see you."
Thank you. You just admitted fault.
Every driver on the road has a legal duty to check their mirrors and blind spots before turning or changing lanes. "I didn't see you" doesn't mean the rider came out of nowhere - it means the driver wasn't looking. And the research backs it up: in two-thirds of car-versus-motorcycle crashes, it's the car driver who's at fault, not the rider.
But you already know that's not how you'll be treated. Riders get blamed first. The adjuster assumes you were speeding. The police report leans against you. Even close loved ones say "well, you knew the risks." You were the one following the rules - and you're the one in bandages, defending yourself. But here's what they don't tell you: California has comparative fault - even if they pin 30% of the blame on you, you still recover the other 70%.
You took the full impact with no protection. They walked away without a scratch.
You need to heal - and that's a longer road in a bike accident than in a car. The bills are piling up and your instincts are to talk to a motorcycle accident lawyer. Fighting this alone could be overwhelming. Talk to Brad, an El Monte motorcycle accident lawyer. He deals with the insurance directly, arranges the medical care you need, and builds the case around what the driver failed to do - not what you were riding. It's what Brad Hayes Law has done for motorcycle accident victims across El Monte and the San Gabriel Valley for 17 years.
Honestly, at some point, the pain should end. But the bills won't go away on their own. The work you missed, the pain and suffering... that is how Brad Hayes Law earns its fee, which is paid out of the settlement if we win. But we can't win if you don't call.
Now that you know more about a motorcycle accident than most,
is there anything you want to ...
