Types of Injuries

Common Injuries in Motorcycle and Bicycle Accidents

San Francisco Attorneys for Injured Bikers

Serious injuries are not unique to motorcycle wrecks and bicycle accidents. But the dynamics of a bike or motorcycle accident can be different from a car accident. Evidence of those dynamics can show up in the types of injuries bikers suffer.

Identifying how an injury occurred and demonstrating it to the insurance company or jury can make a difference in the amount of financial recovery the injured person receives. At the San Francisco law office of Choulos Choulos & Wyle we thoroughly investigate every motorcycle and bicycle accident case ourselves.

By combining medical evidence gathered by medical experts with evidence gathered at the accident scene by experienced investigators and accident reconstructionists we can build a clear case for your financial recovery.

The injury lawyers at Choulos Choulos & Wyle have represented clients who have suffered:

• Burns and road rash
• Traumatic brain injuries and closed head injuries (which can occur even if the biker was wearing a helmet)
• Knee and ankle injuries, which are quite common in motorcycle accident cases
• Spinal cord and back injuries
• Shoulder injuries
• Fractures
• Amputation injuries (see a recent representative case)

The Story an Injury Can Tell

In very serious accidents, when the motorcyclist died or suffered severe head trauma, the victim cannot tell us what occurred. But the injuries themselves will tell the story.

Working backwards from the evidence of your injuries, we can build a strong case for the events leading to the accident. At Choulos Choulos & Wyle we believe we have an advantage in telling that story because we're bikers ourselves. We ride motorcycles and we understand the unique dynamics of cycles and bikes.
