Biker compensation claims can be more complex than standard road accident cases. Bikers are often more seriously injured for the obvious reasons of less protection. This means that it’s important to instruct a specialist lawyer with particular expertise in helping seriously injured victims claim compensation.

Here’s some advice on what you need to do, and what you need to know.

Biker compensation: what you need to do

Biker compensation can be a more complex situation than other road accident cases. For this reason, it’s important to know to do things differently after a motorbike accident.

It’s important to know what to look out for.

Firstly, we say you should avoid any solicitors you’re referred to through your insurers. They used to pay huge referral fees to insurers before the government banned them in 2013. Now, some have alternative business structures to allow for claim referrals. We don’t think any money should be moved away from your claim budget at all. We say you should always go direct to a law firm. That’s why we don’t deal in referrals!

But ultimately, your also not selecting your lawyer. How do you know they specialise in biker compensation; let alone even personal injury claims?

Secondly, make sure your lawyer specialises in serious injury claims as well. You should always have a highly experienced team at the helm of your case; always!

What you need to know about biker compensation

Biker compensation isn’t always the same as any other road accident. When injuries are commonly more serious, insurers tend to defend the claims more. There are also often allegations of speeding and dangerous riding as well.

Don’t be surprised if the insurers try and defend or partially defend the claim to reduce what they owe you. Your lawyers – if they’re specialist lawyers – ought to be fighting tooth and nail for the best compensation package you can obtain. They should always be fighting in your corner.

Many motorbike accident claims also don’t go through the standard procedure many other road cases do. Even where this can lengthen the timeframe for a case, your lawyers ought to be always updating you and you should always know what’s happening.
