Miami ATV Accident Lawyer

All Terrain Vehicles are 3 or 4 wheeled motorized vehicles used for off-road riding and have gained enormous popularity in the last decade. In many ways, these vehicles are ideal for recreation, rescue efforts, and quick, easy transportation in off-road areas. However, accidents occur very often. If you have been injured, contact a Miami ATV Accident Lawyer today.

Why are so many people hurt in ATV accidents?

These devastating accidents are perpetuated by a regulatory system that is still struggling to legislate and implement meaningful and life-saving safety standards. ATVs themselves were introduced to the market in 1971, and were initially three-wheelers. These vehicles were involved in so many rollovers and injuries, that the U.S. Justice Department filed a lawsuit alleging that ATVs and their manufacturers violated the Consumer Product Safety Act. In 1987, the ATV manufacturers agreed to stop producing three-wheeled ATVs, but did not recall the 2.4 million defective ones that had been already sold. Many of these extremely dangerous ATVs remain in use today.

What can be done if I have been hurt in an ATV accident?

If you or someone you love has been injured in an ATV accident and it was due to someone's negligence or a mechanical defect, you may be able to receive valuable compensation for your loss - including medical costs, vehicle repair compensation, pain and suffering, loss of earnings, and future loss of earnings. Time is precious when dealing with collecting reparations for victims in ATV accidents.

Three Wheeler Accidents Lawyer

While all ATVs are dangerous, none are more inherently hazardous than the three wheeled variety. In fact, these "bikes" are so dangerous that their manufacturer has been prohibited in the United States since the late 1980s. While they remain illegal to manufacture, many of the discontinued bikes are still in the possession of Americans. Potential accident victims still enjoy the thrill that accompanies the lighter weight and tighter turns a three wheeler can provide, at the cost of stability and safety.

Don't take chances with your rights after an accident on a three wheeler. If you or someone you know has been injured by a careless or negligent rider, getting in contact with a lawyer is the first step in reclaiming what you've lost. The negligent party has a legal mandate to compensate victims for their injuries. A knowledgeable attorney can help you maximize the compensation that you receive for your suffering.
