We&#8217;re able to send, with the relationships we&#8217;ve formed over the last eighteen years, we&#8217;re able to send our clients to get whatever health care their injuries necessitate. That&#8217;s the first thing, obviously from that point we develop a damage model, and then we prosecute a liability claim against the negligent driver. Usually under insured motorist claims against our client&#8217;s own insurance. It&#8217;s real important that motorcycle drivers when they&#8217;re taking that out, insurance, always always get what&#8217;s called uninsured motorist coverage.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s if a negligent driver hits you that doesn&#8217;t have insurance, then you can make that claim against your own insurance, that&#8217;s uninsured motorist. There&#8217;s also under insured motorist, that&#8217;s if a negligent driver hits you, and doesn&#8217;t have enough insurance coverage to pay for the damages that they caused you. Then we make an under insured motorist claim. There&#8217;s also something called personal injury protection coverage which all motorcycle riders should have. That&#8217;s coverage from your own insurance that helps pay for medical bills.<\/p>\n    <div id=\"author-info\" class=\" well clearfix\">\n        <div class=\"author-image\">\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/www.boutroslaw.com\/stephen-boutros\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">\n                               <img alt=\"Stephen Boutros, Esq.\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Byline-Image-Stephen-Boutros.png\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Byline-Image-Stephen-Boutros.png\" class=\"avatar avatar-90 photo\" height=\"90\" width=\"90\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\">\n            <\/a>\n        <\/div> \n        <div class=\"author-bio\">\n                <p><b>Stephen Boutros<\/b>\u00a0has dedicated over 27 years to advocating for the rights of victims.

A lot of times there&#8217;s a huge mental anguish claim associated with motorcycle accidents, and you often see motorcycle riders give up the motorcycles after a severe accident.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Interviewer: What usually happens after someone\u2019s been in a motorcycle accident, get sent to the hospital, and then contacted you?
