Ocean Springs Motorcycle Accident Lawyer
Personal Injury Attorney Serving Gulfport, Long Beach, Biloxi and Pascagoula
Motorcyclists have a higher risk of injury because they are not as visible as cars or other vehicles, and they are not protected the same way a car driver is safely surrounded by the vehicle cabin. They have no protection from the elements, other drivers, or the road. Reports indicate that in the state of Mississippi, motorcyclists are 21 times more likely to die in a collision than car drivers, and 80% of these accidents are not considered the fault of the motorcyclists, but are caused by the lack of care of other drivers on the road, along with faulty road and highway structures. 70% to 80% of motorcycle accidents result in serious injuries or fatality.
It is important to carry insurance that will protect you in the instance of an accident for damages to your motorcycle and injuries incurred. Uninsured motorist coverage will cover your injuries when the person at fault has no insurance. Underinsured motorist coverage will cover your injuries if the individual at fault has insurance. Even your own insurance company can make it difficult to get the settlement you deserve, and our legal team can help you in such cases.
