Injury Lawyers Tucson Investigates Motorcycle Crashes

Investigating a motorcycle accident case involves evidence. Our legal team will obtain these key elements to prove a legal motorcycle accident injury case. An investigation is necessary in order to obtain the evidence to prove that another party is responsible, or negligent for the accident. Proving another party’s liability requires evidence that our legal team acquires through investigation.

The investigation is complex. Often times, the cause of the collision is not obvious. The factors that caused the crash and who is liable for causing injury are determined through investigation. What factors contributed to the accident? Who is to be held responsible?

After thoroughly examining evidence and investigating the scene, an attorney at Injury Lawyers Tucson will gather evidence in order to prove a case. An investigation includes:

• • A visit to the accident scene
  • An analysis of the crash site
  • Obtaining all evidence of the accident (photos, videos)
  • Collecting witness statements, police reports, accident reports
  • Obtaining pictures from the accident scene (road signs, road conditions….)
  • Acquiring any evidence pertaining to the specific case
  • Record keeping of all damages
  • Gathering medical evidence of any injury
  • Consulting expert witnesses and crash scene investigators

How to determine negligence in a Motorcycle Accident

It is crucial to build a strong personal injury claim. To develop a solid case, all available evidence must be uncovered and examined by our attorney. Of course each case has its specific circumstances, and may take different forms.

There are many potential causes and different factors that could have caused the motorcycle accident:

• Distracted Driving
  • Distracted driving is becoming a very common cause of accidents. Distracted drivers who are negligent for an accident must be held responsible and accident victims deserve compensation.
• Driving while intoxicated
  • Intoxicated drivers who are impaired by drugs or alcohol cause severe accidents and serious injury.
• Reckless Driving
  • Dangerous driving behaviors like speeding, fast lane changes, or tailgating can end in a collision.
• Hazardous Roadways
  • Poorly maintained roads, potholes, shoulder drop-offs, or other dangerous road conditions may contribute to a motorcycle accident. Because of the instability of a motorbike with 2 wheels, hazardous roads are dangerous.
• Defective Motorcycle Parts
  • If any part of a motorcycle malfunctions or proves to be defective, this involves the manufacturer as a liable party to an accident.

Again, many factors may have played a role in causing a motorcycle accident. In order to maximize compensation, an attorney will fully investigate and identify all factors that may have contributed to a crash and injury.
