Do You Have a Case?
During your initial consultation, your motorcycle accident attorneys will ask you questions to determine whether you have a valid claim for damages and, if so, to identify the potential value of your case.
To make the most of that initial meeting, be prepared to provide the following information:
- Details about the accident, including date, time, and location
- Police report
- Contact information/insurance information for the other driver(s)
- Repair estimates for your motorcycle
- Names and contact information for witnesses
- Photos/videos of the accident scene, if available
- Information about the weather and road conditions when the accident occurred
- Medical bills and documentation of the treatment you received

Establishing Fault
One of the most important elements of motorcycle accident claims is being able to prove that another party acted negligently, carelessly, or was otherwise responsible for the accident. That can sometimes be as simple as documenting that another driver was speeding, was operating their vehicle under the influence of alcohol or drugs or failed to obey traffic laws. Your attorney will work hard to determine liability and establish fault in your case.
You may still be able to recover compensation even if you were partially at fault. However, the amount you might receive will be less than if the other driver was entirely responsible. For example, if the other driver was speeding but you were not wearing your motorcycle helmet, the defendant may claim that you have some liability too, and that your damages award should be reduced proportionately.
Important Considerations
In most cases, victims injured in Georgia personal injury claims have up to two years from the date of the accident in which to file claims for compensation. It is important to understand that waiting too long to act could mean you are barred from obtaining compensation for your losses.
At Van Sant Law, our attorneys work on a contingency basis. This means that you don’t pay anything upfront when you work with us! We only get paid when we are successful in helping you obtain the compensation you deserve.

- Medical expenses already incurred, as well as anticipated future expenses

I was in a car accident with a tractor trailer two years ago and David Van Sant came highly recommended for someone I could talk to about the situation. Best decision I've ever made! He fought for me in ways that was truly amazing. Thank you David, Michael and everyone in the office.

My attorney, David Van Sant and his law firm were outstanding in handling my personal injury case. I was out of work for a considerable amount of time due to an automobile accident and Mr. Van Sant and his entire team were always kind, professional, knowledgeable and especially available. This law firm did their absolute best to answer and return calls and at no time did I ever feel like just a number or stranger. My experience with Mr. Van Sant and his law firm (from beginning to end), were very positive as well as favorable.
