How to Protect Your Rights After a Motorcycle Accident in South Florida

Why This Matters

The moments and days after a motorcycle crash can feel like chaos. Medical bills, insurance calls, and physical pain can overwhelm you. But acting quickly and strategically can protect your health, your finances, and your legal standing.

1. Get Immediate Medical Attention

Your health comes first — and your medical records will be vital evidence if you pursue a claim. Even if you feel “fine,” hidden injuries like concussions or internal bleeding can surface later.

2. Document the Scene

Take photos of your injuries, your motorcycle, the other vehicle(s), road conditions, and any visible hazards. The more detail, the better.

3. Gather Witness Information

If bystanders saw the accident, ask for their contact info. Witness statements can make or break a case.

4. Avoid Giving Recorded Statements to Insurance

Insurance adjusters may use your words against you. Politely decline until you’ve spoken with an attorney.

5. Keep All Medical and Repair Records

Save every bill, diagnostic result, prescription receipt, and repair estimate. This documentation supports your claim for damages.
