Motorcycle riders know the freedom of the open road, but they also know the dangers posed by negligent drivers. Too often, after an accident, the insurance company or the other driver will try to blame the victim, relying on the unfair stereotype of the "reckless biker."

At Scott Baron & Associates, we know the truth. We understand that the vast majority of motorcycle accidents are caused by car and truck drivers who simply failed to see what was right in front of them. We fight to make sure your voice is heard and the truth comes out.

Without the protection of a steel frame, airbags, and seatbelts, amotorcyclist's body absorbs the full force of a crash. This often results in life-altering, catastrophic injuries. We fight to secure the maximum possible compensation for the full, lifelong cost of these injuries, including:

• Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI), even when wearing a helmet

• Spinal Cord Injuries and Paralysis

• Severe Road Rash and Degloving Injuries

• Multiple Bone Fractures (often requiring surgery and hardware)

• Internal Organ Damage and Bleeding

• Limb Amputations

If you are involved in a crash, your health is the only priority.

1. Get to Safety: If you can, move out of the way of traffic. Do not attempt to move if you think you have a serious back or neck injury.

2. Call 911 Immediately: Request both police and an ambulance. A police report is crucial evidence, and you must get a full medical evaluation.

3. Do Not Argue Fault: Do not apologize or argue with the other driver. Provide your information and let the police and your lawyer handle the rest.

4. Document Everything: If you are able, take photos of the vehicles, the scene, and your bike. Get contact information from witnesses.

5. Preserve Your Gear: Keep your helmet, jacket, and any other damaged gear. They are important pieces of evidence.

6. Contact a Motorcycle Accident Lawyer: Before you speak to any insurance adjuster, call an attorney who understands motorcycle cases.
