Fatal Motorcycle Crashes in Alabama
In Alabama, fatal motorcycle accident claims must be brought within two years and can only be brought by the estate of the deceased. Alabama wrongful death law only allows for punitive damages, not compensatory damages. Insurance companies often exploit this to minimize the compensation that the decedent's estate receives for the loss. We work with personal representatives to maximize their compensation.
While there are many causes of motorcycle accidents, some are the direct result of negligence on the part of drivers of cars and trucks. If your loved one has been killed in a fatal motorcycle crash, our attorneys will work to find the facts and to identify all liable parties.
Causes of fatal motorcycle accidents include:
- A driver of a car or truck not seeing the motorcycle
- Speeding and reckless driving
- Drug and alcohol use
- Distracted driving
- Debris on the roadway
- Faulty motorcycle parts
Insurance companies aggressively defend against wrongful death lawsuits and will likely send a team of investigators to the accident scene to find evidence that limits their liability.
Our attorneys are skilled at investigating fatal motorcycle accident crashes and know how to counter the strategies the insurance companies use against our clients.
