FAQ
Top Questions About Motorcycle Accident Injuries
Here are five essential Questions and Answers to consider when speaking with a Motorcycle Accident Attorney in Lafayette, LA.
What is the first thing I should do after an accident?
Your health is the immediate priority. Seek medical attention right away, even if you feel fine initially. Many serious injuries, such as concussions or internal bleeding, may not show symptoms for hours or days. Medical records created at this time are also vital evidence for any future legal claims. After ensuring safety and medical care, contact the police to file an official accident report.
Should I speak to the other driver's insurance company?
No, you should avoid speaking to the other driver's insurance company directly without legal representation. Insurance adjusters may try to get you to provide a recorded statement, admit partial fault, or accept a low-ball settlement offer before the full extent of your injuries and damages is known. Refer all communication from insurance companies to your attorney.
How important is documenting the scene and my injuries?
Documentation is critical evidence. If physically possible and safe to do so, take photos of the accident scene, vehicle damage, road conditions, and any injuries. Collect contact and insurance information from everyone involved and any witnesses. Continue to document your injuries and recovery process with photos and keep a detailed journal of your pain levels and daily limitations.
When should I hire a motorcycle accident attorney?
You should hire an attorney as soon as possible after your accident. Crucial evidence at the scene can disappear quickly, witness memories fade, and there are strict deadlines (statutes of limitations) for filing a personal injury lawsuit in Louisiana. An attorney can start an immediate investigation and protect your rights from the very beginning.
How much will it cost to hire an attorney, especially if I can't work right now?
Most personal injury attorneys work on a contingency fee basis. This means you do not pay any upfront fees or out-of-pocket costs for their services. The attorney’s fee is a percentage of the final settlement or court award they secure on your behalf. If they do not win your case, you typically do not owe them a fee.
