Proving fault for a motorcycle accident

If you are a victim of a motorcycle accident and suffered an injury due to someone else’s negligence, to get compensated, you must prove the fault of the other party. To prove fault you must prove duty of care, breach of duty, causation, and damages. Essentially you need to show that someone under the obligation to act in a reasonable manner’s actions or lack thereof caused your injury. From the very beginning of your free consultation, Tusler law works tirelessly to gather evidence and prove the fault of the other party and get you the full compensation you deserve.

Motorcycle Fatalities

Motorcycle accidents are a serious concern, as they can often result in severe injuries or fatalities. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), motorcycle riders are approximately 27 times more likely than passenger car occupants to die in a crash per vehicle mile traveled. At Tusler Law Firm, we understand the unique challenges faced by motorcycle accident victims and their families. We will work tirelessly to hold responsible parties accountable and fight for justice on your behalf.

We fight the insurance companies for you

Insurance companies will try to wave off motorcycle accident claims as being an “inherent risk” to avoid paying higher settlements. Motorcyclists have the same rights as other vehicles. When you’ve been injured in a motorcycle accident, never speak with the insurance company until you’ve spoken with an experienced personal injury lawyer. You need a motorcycle accident lawyer familiar with Wisconsin driving laws to effectively present your case and fight for maximum compensation.
