AUTO/MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENTS

HAVE YOU BEEN IN A CAR OR MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT AND NEED HELP GETTING COMPENSATION?

An automobile accident happens every 5 seconds in the United States (OSHA).  This means that the chances of you being in an accident at some point in your life is highly likely.

In 2019, there were 1406 automobile accidents here in Twin Falls County (Idaho Transportation Department).  Of those accidents, there were 668 people injured and 7 fatalities.

Being in an accident does not necessarily mean that you were responsible for the accident.  If you need help with your insurance claims or want to seek damages…then I am here to help you.

DID YOU KNOW THAT INSURANCE AGENCIES CAN USE TACTICS THAT ARE UNETHICAL WHEN REVIEWING YOUR CAR INSURANCE CLAIM?

Here are some common tactics that an insurance agency may use against you:

  1. Offer a settlement that does not begin to cover all of your expenses.
  2. They may try to deny your claim for an invalid reason.
  3. While filing your claim, they may delay the process.
  4. They may also continue to ask for the same information again and again.
  5. They overwhelm you with unnecessary paperwork.

ARE YOU SEEKING REIMBURSEMENT FOR A MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT?

Riding a motorcycle can be a very rewarding but dangerous endeavor.  If you have been in a motorcycle accident due to somebody else’s negligence, then you have the right to receive compensation for damages.

Due to the unprotected nature of the motorcyclist, these accidents can cause serious injuries, and can even cause fatalities.

In 2019, there were 490 accidents involving motorcycles in the state of Idaho (Idaho Transportation Department).   Of those accidents, 153 involved serious injuries (including long-term disabilities), and there were 25 fatalities.

If you need help deciphering the information you receive from the insurance companies and/or figuring out what your rights are; give me a call.  Let me help you overcome these challenges.

If you have suffered injuries or are seeking damages for the loss of a loved one, you can receive compensation for many different areas:

  1. Medical expenses
  2. Loss of wages
  3. Reimbursement for damaged property

Personal Injury

Personal injuries happen daily, and sometimes they occur from someone else’s negligence.  If you have been injured and it falls under this category, then I am here to help you.

The first thing you should do if you are injured is to seek medical attention.  It does not matter how severe the injury is.  When you are being seen by a medical professional, mention every little pain and discomfort you are feeling.  The reason for this is that you will need this documentation in order to seek damages.

There are different types of damages that you can seek.

Monetary Damages

  1. Medical expenses
  2. Expenses related to the cost of living with a disability
  3. Lost wages
  4. Expenses involving the damage of personal property
  5. Funeral expenses Non-Monetary Damages
  6. Pain and suffering
  7. Loss of consortium (the loss of the ability to have normal marital relations)

Wrongful Death

The premature death of a loved one is never easy to deal with. No monetary compensation can truly make up for the loss incurred. That doesn’t mean you need to suffer any more strain than you already have. 

Wrongful death is when someone’s life is taken due to someone else’s negligence. This includes medical malpractice, motor vehicle accidents, work-related injuries, fires, etc. A wrongful death claim may be filed 2 years after the deceased has passed.

In Idaho, those who may file a wrongful death claim are the deceased’s:

  • Parents
  • Children
  • Spouse
  • Stepchildren
  • Blood relatives that were in any way dependent
  • Heirs of the estate
  • The personal representative of the estate

If you’ve lost a loved one due to negligence, you deserve proper compensation. We promise you, any financial and emotional strain suffered will not go ignored. If you believe you’re a victim of wrongful death, or are still uncertain, schedule a free consultation or call us at 208-734-8810.
