Motorcycle accidents can be among the most devastating. A collision with a car or large truck can cause you great harm, leading to injuries or potentially even permanent disabilities. When you are faced with this situation, it’s natural to not know just where you should turn for answers or how you will get the financial compensation you are entitled to. As an experienced motorcycle accident lawyer, Belal Hamideh has helped many clients who faced the same challenges as you are right now to receive maximum compensation.
What to do about Medical Expenses
If you have suffered serious injuries in your motorcycle accident, you may find that you need significant medical treatment. It’s entirely possible that you may need to spend a long time in the hospital, undergo multiple surgeries, need physical and occupational therapy following the hospital stay and be left unable to work again.
You will have steep medical expenses without having any means of income to help pay for them. You want to make sure that the party responsible for the accident is held accountable and made to pay for your medical bills now and in the future. You also want to get a settlement that covers lost wages and your inability to work.
Belal Hamideh can help. California law allows for both economic and non-economic damages.
Economic damages include quantifiable costs like medical bills, lost wages, vehicle repair or replacement, and future medical expenses. In severe cases, this may also encompass long-term rehabilitation or modifications to one’s living space. Non-economic damages, on the other hand, address intangible losses such as pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of companionship, and diminished quality of life. Belal Hamideh diligently works to ensure his clients recover compensation for both types of damages, leaving no aspect of their hardship overlooked.
For many clients, a significant benefit of working with an attorney is access to a network of medical professionals who provide treatment without requiring upfront payment. These medical providers, much like the attorney, operate on a contingency basis, meaning their fees are derived from the eventual settlement. This arrangement allows injured individuals to focus on their recovery without the financial strain of immediate medical costs.
Help With All Aspects of a Case
An experienced attorney is more than just an advocate, they can be a guide. They can provide support and assistance throughout every step of your case.
For example, deadlines for filing claims, gathering and submitting critical evidence, and negotiating with medical providers are just a few of the tasks Belal handles on behalf of clients.
Additionally, he negotiates with insurance companies, ensuring that all communications are conducted properly and in the injured party’s best interest. These responsibilities, while they may seem secondary to some, are integral to securing compensation and relieving the injured individual of unnecessary stress during an already challenging time.
Establishing Liability, Establishing the Truth
A major aspect of an attorney’s role is building a strong case to establish liability. California law requires proving four key elements to demonstrate negligence in a motorcycle accident: the responsible party owed a duty of care, this duty was breached through action or inaction, the breach caused the accident, and the accident resulted in damages to the injured party.
The process of proving negligence often involves obtaining enforcement and traffic reports, gathering eyewitness statements, analyzing accident scene evidence, and consulting experts to reconstruct the incident. These steps are critical in showing how another party’s actions—or failure to act—led to the accident. By effectively handling these aspects of a case, an attorney strengthens the claim, giving the injured person a greater chance of obtaining justice.
Belal Hamideh has extensive experience proving these elements in courtrooms and negotiations, ensuring that his clients’ cases are supported by solid evidence and compelling arguments.
