Responsible Parties and Insurance Companies In Lexington Motorcycle Accidents

Responsible parties in Kentucky motorcycle accidents may involve the motorcycle seller or manufacturer, government entities responsible for dangerous road conditions, other drivers, or any other person or entity whose negligence or recklessness led to your accident. Regardless of the person or entity that was at fault for your accident, insurance companies for the defendants will almost always be involved. You do not have to speak with any insurance company when they contact you and it is likely in your best interests not to speak with them. To limit their financial exposure, an insurance company will frequently try to pin some or all of the fault on you and they sometimes do this by using something you say during a phone interview against you.

Our Lexington motorcycle accident attorneys know how to handle insurance companies and they will manage all communication with their representatives so that you do not have to speak with them. They will negotiate for a fair settlement so that you are fully compensated and if an insurance company is being unreasonable in their negotiations, our attorneys will take your case to trial. Most motorcycle accident claims do settle and insurance companies are often much more generous with their settlement offers when they know that plaintiffs are represented by competent trial attorneys who will not hesitate to take their case to trial. Our Lexington motorcycle accident lawyers can build you a strong case so that you receive compensation that justifies your pain and suffering.
