No biker wants to think about having an accident, but the fact of the matter is that even the most experienced motorcycle riders can be involved in an accident, and when that happens you need to protect yourself and record all of the events of the accident as soon as possible, and one of the most simplest ways to do that is with your iPhone. The Motorcycle Accident Lawyer office of Russ Brown have a free iPhone app that will let you gather that important data with an easy to use interface.

Lets face it, even in this new day and age, when a biker is involved in an accident, the negative public stigma of motorcyclists in general can sometime make it tough to protect and defend the rights of an injured biker, and some States even take a dim view of a biker who stands up and demands that he be afforded the same rights and respect as other U.S. citizens.

There are still others, who will lead you to believe that bikers in general tend to abuse the law and the legal system with frivolous law suits and insurance claims, and while i don’t speak for every biker in the United States, i think it is fair to say, that if we just remove the word "biker" from the equation, then we can safely say that yes there are some people who might try to take advantage of the legal system and that is just wrong, and when they caught they will have to deal with a different side of the legal system!

But in case you didn’t know, most motorcycle accidents end up with serious injuries and 99% of the time it is the biker who bears the brunt of those injuries, so how is seeking compensation considered frivolous? The insurance industry deals with accident claims in a manner that can easily be viewed as corporate asset protection, rather than the financial representative for insurer responsibility, to insurance company it is all about maximum profit, and minimal loss, not taking honest responsibility when their insured client is at fault!

Having detailed accident event information is crucial in proving your claim, especially if there are no other witnesses other than the involved party. This will help your motorcycle accident lawyer pursue your case and get you the maximum settlement possible, but at the same time you should know that even the most common accident claims can become complex and convoluted, because insurance claim adjusters and the insurance companies legal team are paid to reduce and limit their clients financial exposure, and that is why having all of the facts to support your case is so vitally important.

In motorcycle accident situations where there is serious injury, gathering information and details will be the last thing on your mind, especially when getting medical attention is the most important issue. As soon as you are able, you should document all of the facts of the accident from just before the accident through the events that lead you to the hospital, and if you do not already have legal representation, get one quickly!

Things to remember are:

1. Don’t yell or get over excited, these actions can be perceived as aggression by the involved party and by the police. it is understandable that you will be upset or angry, but keeping a cool head will represent you in a better light should your claim turn into arbitration or a formal court trial.
2. Don’t argue with the police or the involved parties, even if you don’t agree with what the police or another party has to say, you can communicate your views and opinions, but do not argue, or become confrontational; you will be giving the police and the insurance company of the involved party ammunition to use against you later.
3. Unless you are 100% sure you are not injured in any way, you should go to the hospital immediately as you could have medical issues or complications later.
4. Stay in contact with your motorcycle accident lawyer and keep him/her informed of any new information in your case, especially if you are contacted by an insurance claims adjuster, or a lawyer representing the insurance company, or the involved accident parties.

Protecting your rights in the event you are involved in a motorcycle accident starts right after the accident by gathering the details and facts of the accident and having a skilled and experienced motorcycle accident lawyer representing you.
