Even with the motorcycle helmet laws that the New York State Department of Health details, riders are still at risk of grave injuries when involved in accidents with motor vehicles. Some injuries that result from a motorcycle accident can include:
- Brain injuries
- Road rash
- Spinal cord injuries
- Neck trauma
- Broken bones
In severe motorcycle accidents, riders may require amputations or other major surgeries that could be needed in order to save their life. In some cases, motorcycle riders lose their lives in these accidents. If you or a loved one suffered injuries or you lost a loved one in a motorcycle accident, a Staten Island personal injury lawyer can help you seek justice and hold a motor vehicle driver liable for your injuries and losses.

Evidence Can Support Your Claim
The first step to take after a motorcycle accident is to receive medical attention. In order to pursue a personal injury claim, you will need medical documentation that proves you suffered an injury as a result of the accident. That is why it is critical that you get medical treatment for the injuries you suffered and have all the symptoms you are experiencing evaluated by medical professionals
Your medical bills and records are also key documents that Dansker & Aspromonte Associates will need when gathering documentation for evidence. Our Staten Island motorcycle accident lawyers will obtain all of the documentation needed to evaluate and prove your injuries and damages.
We will thoroughly investigate the accident in order to prove the negligence of the defendants. The types of evidence we may collect may include surveillance video, witness statements, police reports, and accident reconstruction results.
The next step with motorcycle accident claims is negotiating with the insurance companies and their lawyers to pursue full and fair money compensation. If Dansker & Aspromonte Associates is unable to reach an agreement prior to trial, we will represent you in court and present the strongest possible case to a jury.
