Types of Recoverable Compensation
Our law firm will tirelessly explore every possible type of compensation you may be entitled to receive. The two main types of recoverable damages boil down to economic and non-economic damages.
Economic Damages
Economic damages are monetary losses that you have suffered as a result of a motorcycle accident caused by a negligent driver. These types of damages are verifiable via documentation and include:
- Medical bills
- Future medical expenses
- Child care
- Property damage
- Cost of household services
- Lost wage & benefits
Non-Economic Damages
Non-economic damages are more challenging to prove but are no less valid to pursue. These non-monetary losses include:
- Loss of consortium (companionship)
- Emotional distress
- Mental anguish
- Permanent disability
- Disfigurement
- Pain and suffering
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Lower quality of life
Wrongful Death
If you suffered the loss of a loved one in a motorcycle accident, please accept our most heartfelt condolences. We understand this is a difficult time and we want to help.
California law allows surviving family members to seek wrongful death compensation under CCP § 377.60 if their loved one died as a result of negligence. Wrongful death damages typically cover medical expenses, lost income, and funeral costs.
Municipal Liability
In addition, you can seek justice by filing a municipal liability lawsuit against the government agency responsible for maintaining roads and highways. This applies if the cause of your motorcycle accident is a pothole, defective or malfunctioning traffic signals, an oil spill, or a foreign object.

Value of Your Compensation Claim
Calculating the value of any claim depends on several factors. As an at-fault state, California law holds that the person responsible for the accident bears responsibility for paying the damages.
California also applies an at-fault percentage so it is possible that both parties involved in the accident share responsibility, which could affect the value of your claim. There is also no cap on economic damages.
Other factors that will help determine the value of your claim include:
- Your injuries: The severity of your injuries has an impact on the value of your claim because you could have sustained minor injuries that did not require much medical attention or you sustained major injuries that required hospitalization and physical therapy.
- Cost of repairs: The value of your property and the cost of repair or replacement.
- Lost income & benefits: Your injuries could have forced you to miss work or rendered you permanently incapable of working.
We will work to calculate the value of your claim, including economic and non-economic damages, and wrongful death damages if applicable. Our firm has secured high-dollar settlements for clients.
