Motorcycles come with a certain amount of inherent risk, but when you follow the rules and use caution but are injured through someone else’s negligence, you have the right to be fairly compensated. Although motorcycles account for just 3% of vehicles on the road, they are responsible for as much as 14% of fatalities due to collisions on the roadway. Once more, the injuries caused by motorcycle accidents are typically more severe and debilitating.

When on the road, motorists have a certain standard of care that they must exercise when motorcyclists are present, and when they do not and are at fault, it is their responsibility to reimburse a motorcyclist for their injuries, pain and suffering, and any impending disability. If you have been the victim of a motorcycle accident, whether you are at fault or not, you deserve to be fairly compensated.

 

You have the right to assume when you seek care from a medical professional that the advice and diagnosis are reasonably accurate and correct. It is believed that anywhere from 10 to 15% of patients will be wrongly diagnosed each year in the US. That is a staggering percentage when you consider the devastation that can result from an improper diagnosis. Being improperly diagnosed can lead to not receiving the medical treatment necessary to mitigate the negative consequences of illness, or it can mean that someone is subject to treatments and procedures that they did not need and that can have devastating prognoses for their future. If you believe that you or someone you love have been the victim of medical misdiagnosis, then acting quickly is of the essence. If you are concerned that your medical care has been substandard, then you have the right to file a claim to receive fair compensation.

Not many home- and property owners understand that they have a legal obligation to take reasonable care to ensure that their premises are safe for passersby. If someone is injured and suffers a slip and fall injury, the owner of the property may be held accountable for physical and emotional injuries. In the same respect, when you enter someone else’s property, you have the legal right to expect that the conditions of the property are safe, and if they are not, the property owner can be held legally responsible for your injuries. When you suffer a fall due to the negligence of someone else, you deserve to be fairly compensated for your injuries, pain and suffering, and any resulting disabilities that may arise.
