If you or a loved one has been in a motorcycle accident, attorney David Ranz, based in Federal Way, is ready to protect your rights and negotiate a fair settlement.

Just because people hear the roaring sound of your bike’s pipes, it doesn’t mean you are a reckless driver.” -David Ranz, Founder of Ranz Injury Law

A motorcycle accident happens when something hits you or you hit something. That includes being hit by another vehicle or hitting unexpected obstructions in the road. Motorcycle accidents might cause injuries to you, your passengers, other drivers, and pedestrians. Accidents can cause damage to your bike, your gear, your possessions, other vehicles, and stationary structures like signs or buildings. There is no such thing as a fender bender when riding a motorcycle. Bumps, loose gravel, and potholes can become serious road hazards.

Bias Against Motorcyclists

Putting your life back together after an accident can be challenging. But motorcyclists often face fierce biases that can make it more difficult to get a fair settlement, especially for those trying to negotiate on their own with insurance companies.

  • Insurance companies are notorious for scoffing at medical claims, trying to assassinate the character of motorcycle accident victims, and using delay tactics to wear down motorcycle accident victims.
  • Police reports may be unfavorable or inaccurate due to bias, errors, or inexperience.
  • At-fault issues can be challenging to overcome. That is why we are dedicated to telling your story to mitigate the impact of those issues. Even if you made errors, you might still be entitled to more compensation for your injuries and property damage than you might think.

Motorcyclists Are At Higher Risk for Crashes, Injuries, and Fatalities

While motorcycle riders account for roughly 7% of vehicles on the road in Washington, motorcycle riders are involved in a disproportionate number of road accidents. On average, a motorcyclist is involved in a crash every four hours.

Without the protection of a vehicle, airbags, and seatbelts, motorcycle accident victims usually sustain more injuries – seen and unseen. Motorcycle accident victims are at higher risk for concussion, road rash, scarring, loss of a limb, and nerve damage. It is not uncommon for motorcycle accident victims to sustain life-long injuries. Motorcycle accident attorney David Ranz, based in Federal Way, understands these unique challenges and is ready to fight hard to help you get fair compensation for injury treatment now and in the future.

Obscure legal statutes are easily overlooked by attorneys with little or no motorcycle accident case experience. David Ranz does the research to find and use the protections put in place to protect you.
