Determining whether your case qualifies for compensation will be difficult without the help of an experienced attorney. To qualify for a motorcycle accident damages claim, you must be able to prove the four elements of negligence were present at the time of the accident. These are:
You must be able to prove there was a legal obligation that should have been upheld by the at-fault party. For example, all drivers have a legal duty to drive safely, obey traffic laws and avoid doing harm to themselves and others.
This is where you must prove that the defendant did not uphold their legal duty. This could happen in several different ways including: disobeying traffic laws, taking part in reckless behavior or by not trying to avoid harm to themselves and others, as any other reasonable person would have, given a similar situation.
There must be a link between your damages and the actions or inactions of the at-fault party. You must be able to prove that your injuries or property damage would not have occurred if the at-fault party did not breach his or her duty of care.
As the victim, you must show proof that the result of the accident created damages such as medical bills, lost income, pain and suffering or property damage.

Since no two motorcycle accidents are the same, it may be difficult to determine how much compensation you may deserve. If you have a valid case, our lawyers will need to review your medical documents to help determine how much financial assistance you will need now, and for future medical expenses, if necessary.
Some of the damages you may be compensated for include:

Since Arizona has a fault-based insurance system, the party who is found liable for causing the accident must pay for the damages suffered by the other party.
Every driver in the state must carry a minimum amount of liability insurance, which can be used to cover the costs associated with the other driver’s damages.
These amounts are:
If the at-fault party’s insurance coverage is not enough to cover the cost of your damages, you may be able to pursue additional coverage from your own insurance policy if you have:
Insurance policies can be complex and may vary, depending on the situation and the insurance company. Our Lake Havasu motorcycle lawyers have experience dealing with insurance companies and the different options that may be available to you. Our goal is to seek the maximum compensation available to help you have a healthy recovery and pursue some financial stability.
According to Arizona law, most personal injury claims must be filed within two years. However, there are some exceptions that may apply, depending on the details of your case.
If your claim is against a government entity, your deadline is only 180 days after the motorcycle accident. If you or a loved one was under the age of 18 at the time of your motorcycle accident, you may be able to submit your claim up to two years after your 18th birthday.
If you do not submit your claim before the appropriate deadline, your case might be barred from the court. If you have a legitimate case, our team of legal professionals can help determine how much time you have for filing your claim.

Most motorcycle injury victims might assume that they may be disqualified from obtaining compensation because they were not wearing a helmet at the time of the accident. However, you may still be able to pursue compensation if your accident occurred in Arizona, since the law does not require motorcycle drivers to wear a helmet if they are over the age of 18.
