Recovering Compensation for Your Motorcycle Accident in Aliso Viejo

The first legal challenge you must overcome after a motorcycle accident is proving the exact cause of the accident. You need to identify the party responsible for causing the accident and prove how they caused it before you can recover any compensation for your damages. It’s possible for a motorcycle accident to happen because of driver negligence or as a result of illegal misconduct behind the wheel.

Your Aliso Viejo motorcycle accident lawyer at Easton & Easton can gather the evidence and witness testimony you need to firmly establish liability for your accident. Once fault is proven, you can proceed with claiming compensation for the damages you suffered. Under California’s fault rule for vehicle accidents, the at-fault driver is liable for any economic and non-economic damages they inflicted.

Recovery will likely begin with a claim against the defendant’s insurance. Every California driver is required to have auto insurance, but dealing with insurance company representatives is often difficult. You should expect the insurer to push back against your claim, looking for any reasons they can find to justify a lowball settlement offer or claim denial. Having a personal injury attorney in Aliso Viejo on your side can help to ensure you are treated fairly.

If you cannot fully recover your damages through auto insurance, you will need to file a personal injury case against the defendant who injured you. If you can successfully prove the defendant is directly responsible for causing your personal injury, it is possible to recover compensation for property losses, medical expenses, lost wages, and your pain and suffering. Easton & Easton will do everything we can to maximize your case award in Aliso Viejo.

FAQs

Who Is Liable for a Motorcycle Accident in Aliso Viejo?

Liability for a motorcycle accident in Aliso Viejo can be determined using various types of evidence. You will need to prove liability before you can recover compensation for your damages, and it is possible for one party or multiple parties to share fault. Your Aliso Viejo motorcycle accident lawyer can be instrumental in gathering the evidence and witness testimony you will need to establish fault for your accident.

What Happens if I’m Partially Liable for My Motorcycle Accident?

If you are found partially liable for your motorcycle accident, California’s pure comparative fault law applies to your case. You will have a fault percentage assigned, and if your case is resolved in court, you will lose a percentage of your case award equal to your percentage of fault. Shared liability can also interfere with an auto insurance claim. Contact an attorney right away if you are worried that you are partially responsible for your motorcycle accident.

What Is My Motorcycle Accident Case Worth in Aliso Viejo?

The value of your motorcycle accident case in Aliso Viejo will depend on the overall severity of the injuries you suffered. You will need to identify the party responsible for causing the accident and show that your claimed damages solely resulted from their actions. It’s possible to recover compensation for your vehicle repair costs, medical bills, lost income, and your pain and suffering.

How Is Pain and Suffering Compensation Calculated in a Motorcycle Accident Case?

In a motorcycle accident case, pain and suffering compensation can be calculated based on the overall severity of the victim’s injuries and whether they suffered any permanent harm. Generally, the more serious the injury is, the more pain and suffering compensation the victim is likely to obtain if they succeed with their case. Your Aliso Viejo motorcycle accident lawyer can help you maximize your total compensation.

What Are Attorneys’ Fees for an Aliso Viejo Motorcycle Accident Lawyer?

Attorneys’ fees for an Aliso Viejo motorcycle accident lawyer will only be a percentage of your total case award if Easton & Easton represents you. We take personal injury cases on a contingency fee basis, meaning we only charge our client a fee if and when we win their case. If we are unable to obtain compensation for the client for any reason, there is no fee, so there is no financial risk in choosing our firm to represent you.

Coming out of my first auto accident as an adult, a very difficult and scary time to navigate and understand, I was so incredibly thankful to have been put in contact with Easton & Easton.

I could not be more pleased with the services provided by the Law Offices of W. Douglas Easton. The senior partner Mr. Easton took the time to meet with me and my wife while I was still in the hospital, where he gave my family hope that there was light at the end of a very long, and very dark tunnel. Matt Easton then worked my case, and because of his dedication, experience and expertise I received a settlement that was larger than I EVER thought possible. It was truly astounding! Matt and the entire team at Easton & Easton looked out for me throughout my recovery, and in the end they gave me my life back. Five stars is not enough. Thanks Matt! Thanks Easton & Easton!

Ashlee A.

Retaining Easton and Easton was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made! From the initial consultation to our final meeting, they were nothing short of exceptional. I was forced to retain their services after firing my previous attorney for not handling the case properly. I dealt with Gabriel and Brian (partner) exclusively throughout the case. They did as promised and were great communicators throughout the entire process. I will recommend them to anyone I know going through a personal injury case. They were ultimately able to untangle the mess caused by my previous lawyer and get a result that I was extremely happy with. Their staff is exceptional as well and provided top notch customer service. Amera was also extremely helpful and easy to deal with as well.

Jeffrey N.

I was in a pretty bad car accident and decided to have Easton & Easton represent me, Travis Easton to be specific. Travis Easton and his paralegal made the whole process effortless. They were so understanding and helpful! The entire thing was a gigantic mess, yet Travis managed to make it run like clockwork. I would HIGHLY recommend Easton & Easton! If you are ever in need of a personal defense attorney Easton & Easton is the firm to represent you!

I was treated with utmost respect and I felt like I was being represented by a close family member. The responses to my questions were quick and clear. What E & E has done for me is phenomenal.
My sincere thanks to Brian, Matt, Travis, Doug, Gabriel and Amera. They are what they are because of their dedication to provide high quality and professional service to their clients.

Brian Easton and his team, Gabe Mendoza and Amera Hajali, helped me during a very difficult time in my life.

The Easton team took a lot of stress off of me while acting as my advocates to help me get the care I needed, and saw my case all the way through to a healthy settlement.
They are the BEST!
