Add to that the fact that they are after their own interests and always attempt to get you to settle for less.

The lawyers at Elia Law Firm are the motorcycle accident litigation experts you need.

Careful! You can ruin your motorcycle accident case!
Here are 20 ways you can ruin your chance of success in your case.
San Diego’s warm weather puts more motorcycle riders on the road. Unfortunately, more collisions follow.
The popularity of motorcycles has been on the rise for years, particularly in San Diego where warm weather dominates. And because motorcycles are gas-efficient, eco-friendly, and an inexpensive mode of transportation, they continue to gain in popularity. Unfortunately, more motorcycles on the road means more and more motorcycle accidents, to the tune of over 100,000 injury accidents in 2007 alone.
Motorcycle accident statistics are chilling. 2006 information released by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) showed nearly 5,000 fatalities in motorcycle crashes, three fourths of which involved collision with another vehicle. In San Diego there was a noticeable drop between the years of 2008 and 2010, but motorcycle accidents have been on the rise since then.
According to Chris Cochran of the California Office of Traffic Safety, “The upturn of the economy may have put more money into pockets, or more confidence that things weren’t going to get worse,” he said. “So the pleasure riders brought their bikes out of the garage or even went and bought new ones. And maybe new pleasure riders were added to the mix.”

Automobiles and motorcycles are sometimes a deadly mix.
Often, car drivers are unaware of how to best share the road with motorcycles or are distracted when changing lanes and entering intersections. This can produce dangerous – even deadly – results for the rider(s) of the motorcycle in question.
Though helmets do help prevent fatalities, they do nothing to protect the body of a motorcyclist.
Unfortunately, most motorcycle accident victims leave the scene of the accident in an ambulance. Once you’ve received medical treatment, it’s CRITICAL for you to consult with a San Diego motorcycle crash attorney at Elia Law Firm to find out your legal rights. Given the many financial and emotional costs of an injury and the expensive medical treatment that follows, it often makes sense for the victim to file a personal injury lawsuit in court and seek financial compensation from the negligent party for their injuries.
Don't stand back and take a low-ball settlement, or worse, do nothing.
And don’t delay – you may have limited time to retain an attorney and file a civil lawsuit.
The attorneys here at the Elia Law Firm in San Diego are not only familiar with all aspects of personal injury claims and motorcycle accident litigation in San Diego; we are experts in this field. Committed to our clients’ rights and health, we’re relentless in standing up for clients in court and helping them win the compensation they deserve.
