What You Can Do to Help Your Case
Although our legal team at the Law Offices of Anidjar & Levine does the heavy lifting, here are a few simple actions you can take to help your case:
- Follow your healthcare provider’s recommendations to ensure your best health outcome and to prevent the insurance company from questioning the validity of your injuries.
- Politely decline to give a statement to the adjuster or investigator until you have a chance to talk to a lawyer.
- Write down or record everything that you remember about what happened before, during, and after the accident (your attorney will need a statement from you and memories can fade quickly).
- Avoid posting pictures or comments about the accident on Twitter, Facebook, and social media outlets.
- Do not discuss details about your accident or pursuit for compensation with anyone except your attorney.

Settlement Versus Judgement in a Motorcycle Accident Case
In our experience, many motorcycle accidents result in a settlement between the plaintiff (the injured party) and the defendant (the at-fault party). Our lawyers typically file a claim with the defendant’s insurance company, and we negotiate an acceptable award on behalf of our clients.
If we can settle your case:
- Payment may be processed more quickly
- The defendant does not have to admit liability or wrongdoing
- The details and amount of the settlement remain confidential and private
If we go to court:
- Your damages could be greater, but they could be less
- The details about your case would be public record
- The defendant can appeal
A motorcycle accident lawyer with our firm will explain your options so that you can make an informed decision. Call today to get started.
