Morgan and Morgan Recovers $1 Million for Man Struck While Riding Motorcycle

Morgan and Morgan obtained a $1 million settlement for a client who was struck by a vehicle while riding his motorcycle. The client suffered multiple femur fractures, which required three surgeries with permanent hardware installation.

During this lawsuit, the motorcycle accident lawyers at Morgan and Morgan sought financial compensation from the driver responsible for their client’s injuries. The case was settled prior to trial, awarding $1 million to the injured motorcyclist. 

Certain driving conduct can increase the likelihood of a collision between a motorcycle and motor vehicle. A motorcycle accident can occur when a driver fails to see the motorcyclist in an oncoming traffic lane just before making a left turn. Drivers who fail to spot motorcyclists when switching lanes are also susceptible to collisions. Lastly, a motorcycle accident can occur when a motorist drives too closely to a motorcycle, not recognizing that a motorcycle can stop more quickly than a car. 

Morgan and Morgan handles motorcycle accident lawsuits in Florida and nationwide. When a person’s negligence or recklessness leads to a motorcycle accident, and an individual is injured as a result, the injured party can pursue a motorcycle accident lawsuit to recover financial compensation.
