Motorcycle Accident Attorneys Duluth, GA
- Motorcycle Accidents & Injury Claims -
Research has shown that in collisions involving motorcycles and other automobiles, many of them are caused by the operator of the automobile violating the motorcyclist’s right of way. Due to the openness of motorcycles, whenever there’s a collision with a vehicle, the risk of catastrophic injuries or death is substantially greater for the rider. Catastrophic injuries, such as spinal injuries, brain injuries and paralysis, can require weeks or sometimes months of hospitalization, which can lead to major bills – even for those who carry insurance. At a time when you should be focusing on healing and getting back to your normal life, you will be forced to deal with insurers who may add further to your frustration.
Unfortunately, some individuals are prejudiced against bikers, and insurance companies will not hesitate to use that prejudice to deny a claim. All too often, we are contacted by injured motorcyclists who have been told that the accident was their fault or their policy will not cover the collision. This is where York Gaskill can step in to fight for your rights. You do not have to deal with insurance companies on your own – let us handle your case while you focus on what’s important – your health and recovery.

Bicycle Accident Attorneys Duluth, GA
- Bicycle Accidents & Injury Claims -
Serious accidents can take place with bikers, particularly when motor vehicle operators drive in bike lanes, make turns into cyclists and/or “door” a biker. In Georgia, especially around the Metro Atlanta area, cyclists can be seen on a regular basis taking advantage of beautiful weather and/or simply riding around local neighborhoods. Unfortunately, many local roadways do not have bike lanes, which means bikers are forced to share the road with large automobiles, SUVs and commercial trucks.
Accidents can also occur due to defective roadways or hazardous conditions on bike paths. Our attorneys have a thorough knowledge of the laws pertaining to bike riders, as well as the various components and complexities surrounding bike accidents. That is why it is crucial for injured bike riders to seek legal guidance as soon as possible after an accident in order to ensure their rights are fully preserved and protected.
In many instances, bicycle accidents are the result of other cyclists, especially when riding on mountain trails or during local races. Additionally, some accidents are caused by poor road conditions, such as potholes and other defects.
