Motorcycle Accidents

Unis & Associates, PLC • Irvine, California • Motorcycle Accident Accident Lawyers

Vulnerable, Distracted, Crowded... and Injured

While it is true that motorcyclists have the same legal rights on the road that other motorists do, it is also true that motorcyclists' injuries tend to be more severe than those of drivers or passengers of cars and trucks. Many people enjoy motorcycle, moped, and other two-wheel vehicles, ranging from scooters to racing bicycles. The combination of the vulnerability of the vehicle, the distracted attention of drivers, and the sometimes crowded conditions of highways often result in tragic consequences of people on motorcycles and mopeds.

Because motorcyclists have minimal protection against cars, trucks, cement barriers, and other hazards, motorcycle accidents can result in catastrophic injuries requiring extensive medical treatment and significant time away from work. Injuries from motorcycle accidents can include brain injuries, broken bones, concussions, internal bleeding, paralysis, and other injuries. Some motorcycle accidents can be fatal, especially if the accident victim is not wearing a helmet. Free Consultation

Spinal Cord Injuries

A serious spinal cord injury can occur when there is a traumatic, sudden blow to the spine that results in compression, crushing, dislocation, or the fracturing of the vertebrae. The location of the injury on the spine and whether the SCI is a partial one or a complete SCI will determine the seriousness of the injury and the medical care required. Free Consultation

The National Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center says that there were about 255,000 people with spinal cord injuries living in the United States in 2007. Approximately 12,000 new cases occur every year. A spinal injury can lead to loss of physical movement, loss of physical sensation, bowel management problems, urinary tract difficulties, bedsores, deep vein thrombosis, sexual dysfunction, paraplegia, quadriplegia, or other serious medical conditions. Free Consultation

Traumatic Brain Injuries

A TBI is often life changing, and, unlike many injuries, can be difficult to diagnose, treat, and recover from. In certain cases, it can take weeks for a doctor to recognize that a personal injury victim is suffering from a TBI. Free Consultation

A traumatic brain injury (whether mild, moderate, or severe) can affect not just the brain, but (depending on the part of the brain that was injured) also the patient’s personality, emotions, and abilities to communicate, think, and remember. A TBI can be caused by a sudden blow or jolt to the head. A serious TBI can result in a coma or brain death. Free Consultation

Head Injuries

Depending on its severity, a concussion, a skull fracture, a hematoma, or any other head injury may or may not affect the brain. A serious head injury can require instant medical attention and specialized care.
