Motorcycle Accidents
That’s me, Sam Davis on my Harley. Only a lawyer who is himself a motorcycle enthusiast can effectively be an advocate for an injured motorcycle rider. Each motorcycle accident presents a unique set of challengers and must be appropriately handled right from the beginning. Often the police report unfairly attributes all or a portion of the blame to the motorcyclist. Injured motorcycle riders are discriminated against because they do not have the benefit of Personal Injury Protection (PIP) as do automobile drivers. Furthermore, if not properly educated by the trial attorney, a jury will conclude that a cyclist assumed the risk of certain dangers when he or she chose to operate a motorcycle.
We at Davis, Saperstein & Salomon, P.C. often use the services of accident reconstruction experts to demonstrate to a jury or insurance company that the accident was solely caused by the defendant. It is our function to change a juror’s thinking to understand that motorcycling is not necessarily a sport but is a means of legal transportation in the state of New Jersey.
Sam Davis is an avid motorcycle enthusiast and an advocate for motorcycle safety. He has firsthand knowledge of operating a motorcycle. Whether in Teaneck, N.J, on the roads of the Bergen County, the New Jersey Turnpike, or riding in the beauty of Sturgis, South Dakota, Sam Davis knows and understands motorcycling.
