A motorcycle crash can turn your life upside down in an instant.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Are The Most Common Injuries in Motorcycle Accidents?
  • Head and brain injuries: Even with a helmet, riders are at high risk for concussions or traumatic brain injuries.
  • Spinal cord injuries: Damage to the spine can cause partial or complete paralysis, often leading to lifelong effects.
  • Fractures and broken bones: Arms, legs, ribs, and collarbones are frequently broken in crashes due to impact or being thrown from the bike.

  • Soft tissue injuries: Sprains, strains, and ligament tears are common and can cause lasting pain or reduced mobility.
  • Amputations: In severe cases, traumatic limb loss can occur during the crash or require surgical amputation afterward.
  • Emotional trauma: Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, and depression often follow serious motorcycle accidents.

The value of a motorcycle accident settlement varies widely depending on several important factors. These include the severity of the injuries, the impact on your ability to work and daily life, medical expenses, the degree of fault involved, and the insurance coverage available. Every case is unique, so settlements are tailored to reflect the specific circumstances of the accident and the rider’s individual needs.

Because of this complexity, it’s important to have an experienced motorcycle accident lawyer who can accurately assess your claim, negotiate with insurers, and help ensure you receive fair compensation based on your situation.

After a motorcycle accident, having a skilled lawyer on your side can make a significant difference in your recovery and your claim. At Oatley Vigmond, we know the challenges motorcyclists face, from dealing with complex insurance policies to proving liability when fault isn’t always clear.

A lawyer helps protect your rights, ensures you receive the benefits and compensation you’re entitled to, and handles all the legal details so you can focus on healing. Without legal representation, you risk accepting less than you deserve or missing important deadlines that could affect your claim.

Choosing Oatley Vigmond means having a dedicated team who understands motorcycle accidents inside and out and will fight for your best interests every step of the way.

If you believe you may be at fault in a motorcycle accident, it’s important to understand your rights and responsibilities. At Oatley Vigmond, we’re here to guide you through the legal process with compassion and clarity.

Even if you’re at fault, you may still be entitled to certain benefits under Ontario’s insurance system, and you could face claims from others involved in the crash. Having an experienced lawyer ensures your interests are protected, helps you navigate the complexities of liability and insurance claims, and works to minimize any potential financial and legal consequences.

Our team provides honest advice and strong representation to help you move forward with confidence, no matter your role in the accident.
