Motorcycle accidents can result in very serious injuries or death. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reports that more than 80 percent of all motorcycle accidents result in death or injury to the motorcyclist. Unlike other vehicles on the road, motorcyclists do not have the protection of an outer vehicle covering protecting them from injury on impact with another vehicle. Motorcycles also do not have the driver safety protections like seat belts and airbags that motor vehicles have. All that a motorcyclist has to protect themselves from severe injury or death is their helmet. If you have been involved in a motorcycle accident and suffered serious injuries, or if you lost a loved one to a motorcycle accident, you should speak with a Destin motorcycle accident lawyer to get information about your rights.

Common Motorcycle Accident Injuries
A motorcycle accident can leave you with severe, long-term injuries that impact your life and lifestyle. Some of the common injuries from a motorcycle accident include:
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Thoracic injuries
- Abdominal injuries
- Rib fractures
- Loss of limbs
- Disfigurement
A patient with any of these injuries may require long-term medical care and rehabilitation before they are able to carry on their normal daily activities.
If the accident was caused by the negligent or wrongful actions of another person, the victim may be entitled to financial compensation for the damages they suffer as a result of the accident.
How Much Compensation Can I Get for a Motorcycle Accident?
There are many factors that will determine how much compensation you can get for your motorcycle accident injury. The severity of your injuries will certainly be a factor considered in determining the extent of your damages. At Zarzaur Law, we have the professional resources to help you prove your claim for the full value of your damages. We have an in-house medical doctor that works with the firm in preparing your case.
You may be entitled to both economic and noneconomic damages in your case. Economic damages include medical bills, past and future lost wages, funeral costs (if the victim of the accident died), and lost support and services. Noneconomic damages are non-financial losses and could include disfigurement, and loss of capacity for enjoyment of life.
We prepare every case as though it were going to trial so that when we sit down with your insurance company, they know that we mean business.
