New York Motorcycle Accidents

The victims of Garden City motorcycle crashes often discover that their injuries may not be the worst part of the accident.  They often face the difficult struggle of defending themselves against the contention that they were at fault.

Garden City motorcycle crash attorney—facing prejudices

To many people, accidents involving motorcycles indefinitely means the motorcyclist is to blame.  This is a myth, and a blatant misunderstanding that can make it difficult for motorcyclists to obtain compensation for their injuries.

Lutfy & Lutfy, P.C. fights for you.  We provide legal backing that helps clients overcome the struggles of filing a motorcycle injury claim, including:

  • Confronting prejudice from insurance companies, police, and other motorists
  • Negotiating with insurance companies that are trying to avoid full coverage of damages
  • Finding adequate and ongoing medical care for extensive injuries
  • Filing for disability benefits if your injury prevents you from working
  • Conducting a thorough investigation of the accident and damages

L&L often uses sophisticated scene re-constructionists and other accident experts to make sure the insurance company and courts truly understand all the elements of your accident.  We aim to make them understand the value of what you lost and preserve your right to compensation.
