Oklahoma Motorcycle Accident Injury

Oklahoma Motorcycle Accident Attorneys and Injuries

Atkins & Markoff is an Oklahoma accident representation law firm with years of experience representing the victims of motorcycle accidents. When a motorcycle is involved in a traffic accident, the driver is usually violently ejected from the bike, causing substantial injuries that can put the motorcyclist in a fight for his or her life. When the negligent and careless actions of another causes a motorcycle accident, the operator of the motorcycle can be entitled to compensation for his or her injuries. The law firm of Atkins & Markoff has skilled and aggressive Oklahoma accident attorneys who have tried, and won, many motorcycle accident lawsuits, and are standing by right now to help you analyze your claim.

Because of the lack of protective barriers between a motorcycle and the road, motorcyclists are exposed to dangers that other motorists are not subjected to, often leaving riders prone to serious injuries in the event of an accident. In addition, of all multi-vehicle accidents, it is estimated that over 80% of accidents involving motorcycles are not the motorcyclist's fault. If you have been injured in a motorcycle accident due to another driver’s negligence, it is important to seek the legal counsel of a skilled accident attorney to protect your legal rights.

 Motorcycle Accident Statistics

Almost half of all fatal motorcycle accidents involve the motorcycle running off the road. Further, approximately 3000 people die in the United States annually due to motorcycle accidents, approximately 82% of motorcyclists killed are not wearing helmets, and of these non-helmet wearers, approximately 70% die from head injuries, compared to 36% for helmeted riders.
