Motorcycle Accidents

If you or a family member has been injured in motorcycle accidents, the experienced personal injury lawyers at Paciocco & Mellow are available to help you.

Many motorcycle riders are injured as the result of the careless actions of the drivers of cars or other larger vehicles. All too many motorcyclists have been severely injured as the result other drivers pulling out in front of them, cutting them off or changing lanes without checking for the presence of other vehicles.

The injuries sustained by the motorcyclist as a result of such accidents are often devastating and can include whiplash injuries to the neck and back, fractures, disc herniations, shoulder injuries, arm injuries, leg and foot injuries, soft tissue damage, nerve damage, lacerations, contusions and bruises, concussions and other closed head injuries, depression, anxiety and post traumatic stress disorder. If you or a family member has been injured in motorcycle accidents, the experienced personal injury lawyers at Paciocco & Mellow are available to help you.

There are two main forms of compensation available to motorcycle accident victims in Ontario, Statutory Accident Benefits and a lawsuit against the person or persons who caused the motorcycle accident. Statutory Accident Benefits are available to the injured person from his or her own auto insurance company. If the injured person does not have his or her own auto insurance policy, Statutory Accident Benefits could be available from the auto insurance policy of a close family member, the auto insurance policy of the vehicle that the accident victim was riding in at the time of the accident, the auto insurance policy of another vehicle involved in the accident, or the Ontario Motor Vehicle Accident Claims Fund.

Statutory Accident Benefits include benefits for such things as income loss, medical treatments not paid for by OHIP, and certain other expenses that may be incurred by the accident victim. The experienced personal injury lawyers at Paciocco & Mellow can assist you in obtaining the Statutory Accident Benefits which you are entitled to.

A lawsuit against the person or persons who caused the motorcycle accident is another potential source of compensation for an accident victim. In circumstances where the negligent acts of other persons caused or play a contributing role to the motorcycle accident, the accident victim may be able to sue the negligent person or persons. A motorcycle accident victim can claim damages for pain and suffering, income loss, and expenses that have or will be incurred as a result of the car accident including for housekeeping, maintenance, medical treatments, medical devices and attendant care. Additionally, family members of the accident victim may also have a claim for damages for the loss of the care, guidance or companionship that the accident victim would otherwise have provided and for expenses incurred as a result of the accident. The experienced personal injury lawyers at Paciocco & Mellow can assist you in obtaining the compensation which you are entitled to.

There are time limitations which limit the time which you have to make a claim for Statutory Accident Benefits and to bring a lawsuit. It is important that you contact an experienced personal injury lawyer, such as the personal injury lawyers at Paciocco & Mellow, as soon as possible following your accident.
