Motorcycle Accident Lawyers
San Diego's Trusted Motorcycle Accident Law Firm
3 years ago I had a horrific motorcycle accident and my wife asked a lawyer friend to help us. This retired lawyer was WAY outta his realm, and he told us the case was too much for him, and to look for a new lawyer. After interviewing several firms, and being vetted by this "friend/lawyer" we chose Taylor Gains and Batta Fulkerson Law Group. Right from the start, Taylor and the entire Batta Fulkerson firm put my case on high priority. From all the medical attention, diagnosis and through multiple surgeries, I was never denied any care whatsoever. Almost 2 years after the accident, Paul Batta, Dan Fulkerson, and Taylor Gains successfully mediated the case with the defendant's Insurance Company. Unfortunately now over a year later the guys are still litigating with the original "lawyer/friend" on his "claim" on the case, even though he was clearly substituted. But in true form to the integrity of the men and the Batta Fulkerson Law group, they put my interests and the medical providers first, and made sure we got funded while this dispute is ongoing! There aren't enough words to express our gratitude to these 3 guys and the whole firm, truly exemplary in EVERY aspect, and most of all as human beings. We would recommend Batta Fulkerson Law Group to anybody in need with the absolute highest rating possible!
A reputable motorcycle accident attorney understands how severe injuries can be from a motorcycle crash or accident.
Whether it is a street bike or a cruiser, many bikers take serious precautions to avoid a collision of any sort. But even the most skilled and careful bikers cannot fully eliminate the risk a motorcycle presents.
Motorcycle accident cases are unique in nature due to the growing public bias against motorcyclists in San Diego. People seem to have the perception that all motorcycle operators drive too fast and take unnecessary risks. Only a truly skilled motorcycle accident attorney can overcome this bias and ensure the victim is properly represented and the case is handled fairly.
At Batta | Fulkerson, we have a team of skilled San Diego motorcycle accident lawyers with the relevant experience combating this bias and maximizing your settlement opportunity.
Why are Motorcycle Accident Injuries so Frequent in San Diego?
According to California’s Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS) there are about 800,000 registered motorcycles in California. This means the Sunshine State has the largest volume of motorcycles in the United States. Most of the registered owners live in Southern California. The frequency of motorcycle accidents in San Diego is purely a numbers game. There is simply a large number of motorcyclists on the roads every day - accidents are inevitable.Why Are Motorcycle Accidents So Severe?
- Since there is no metal around a motorcyclist he/she is susceptible to direct impact with the ground, a car, or an object.
- Motorcycles are lighter than cars, trucks, and buses, so impacts at slower speeds can still cause great damage.
- Motorcycles are harder to see for other drivers, leaving bikers more susceptible to being cut off, tailed or "doored" (having a driver open a door while a motorcycle is passing).
- Motorcycles are impacted by road defects, big potholes or just poorly maintained roads and freeways. While a car may only experience a light impact by these inconveniences, they could cause an accident to a motorcyclist.
