Miami Beach Limited Visibility Motorcycle Accidents

Many visibility motorcycle accidents in Miami Beach and Florida are entirely preventable. While in some cases weather or another issue that is outside of our control causes these crashes, in many cases negligence has a role to play in these devastating accidents. In many cases, quality helmets, good lighting, and careful attention to driving can help prevent these types of collisions.

If you have been in a traffic accident caused by poor visibility, contact Flaxman Law Group to review your options. If your accident was simply caused by poor weather or something that cannot be prevented, you may be able to negotiate with insurance carriers to seek fair compensation. If, however, your injuries were caused by someone's negligence or recklessness you may have a legal claim that lets you seek compensation for medical bills, lost income, and other expenses from the liable parties in your case.
