Injuries Caused by Lynnwood Motorcycle Accidents

Lynnwood motorcycle accidents can cause serious injuries no matter how serious or minor the crash was for the rider. Even a crash at a slow rate of speed can cause a motorcycle rider to suffer serious or deadly injuries. Motorcycle accidents can cause the following injuries:

  • Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Concussions
  • Broken bones
  • Road rash
  • Lacerations
  • Amputation
  • Paralysis
  • Death

Any of these injuries could cause you to suffer pain for years on end, even with regular treatment, surgery, or physical therapy. The most serious injuries, such as paralysis and death, make it almost impossible for you to return to work and provide for your family.

Seeking Compensation for Motorcycle Accident Injuries

The victim of a Lynnwood motorcycle accident is within their rights to file a lawsuit for the injuries caused by the crash. However, there is a statute of limitations under Washington law that requires victims to file a lawsuit within three years from the date of the accident.

You can seek the following damages in a motorcycle accident:

  • Pain and suffering
  • Medical expenses
  • Current and future lost wages
  • Damage to your motorcycle and other property damage
