Being rear-ended is surprising no matter what, but when you’re on a motorcycle, it can lead to a devastating injury. It is common for bikers to be thrown over the windshield or even run over by another vehicle after being rear-ended.
The other driver needs to compensate you for the damages you suffer, including your physical injuries, property damage, and emotional trauma. To ensure you have the best chance possible of receiving compensation for your wreck, call a Boise motorcycle rear-end collision lawyer from Craig Swapp & Associates.
Delayed and Serious Motorcycle Injuries
The most important thing to do after your rear-end motorcycle collision is visit a doctor. You need to be properly diagnosed so that you can begin receiving treatment and working toward your recovery. Your injuries set the foundation for your case, and anything that is left out cannot be included in your demand for compensation. This makes it critical to disclose all potential injuries.
You especially want to be on the watch for a traumatic brain injury after your crash . These do not always manifest immediately, so visit a doctor if you are having trouble thinking clearly, have constant headaches, are off balance, or are experiencing mood swings.
Protect Yourself Legally and Financially
After being rear-ended, it would seem logical that the other driver was to blame and will have to compensate you. This isn’t always the case, unfortunately, and the other side will be actively trying to prove that you were at fault. This makes it critical to not take their guilt for granted but to hire an attorney who can prove it instead.
Working with a rear-end motorcycle collision lawyer from our office will protect your legal rights by ensuring that your case is filed on time and that the right party is sued.
Get the Money You Deserve
You should receive money to pay for how your life has been impacted by the rear-end collision and by your injuries. This includes money to pay for any financial damages that have resulted:
- Medical bills, current and future
- Transportation costs
- Lost wages
- Caregiver fees
- Cost to retrofit your home or vehicle to accommodate a disability
- Rehabilitative therapy
- Medication
Your Boise motorcycle rear-end collision lawyer will also ask for money to pay for the damage the crash has done to your quality of life. Non-economic damages for pain and suffering, loss of consortium, emotional distress, and disfigurement go directly to you and can ease the burdens caused by the accident .

Client Reviews
“I was concerned with all the paperwork”
Before calling your firm I had 2 big worries. One was I didn’t want to do more paper work, and that fear was resolved when I had to do very little, but Craig Swapp and Assoc. did most of it, and when I did have to come in to sign papers they worked around the times I could do it. Worry 2 was I didn’t want people to think I was “sue happy” and that I was just out to get money. I just wanted my bills to be paid for that were from the accident, and that was resolved I think by Mr. Wes Mortenson and Theresa because they listened to what I had to say.

"I would hire them in a second"
My biggest fear was not having all the expenses caused by the accident paid for in full. I was assured they would be taken care of but I admit I was skeptical. When we wrapped everything up (which happened quicker than I was originally told) I had extra money in my pocket. I honestly thought there was a catch but my attorney explained everything to me in detail. If I am ever in that position again I’ll be giving Craig Swapp a call.

"I was afraid of the fees"
I was afraid of the fees I would have to pay a lawyer. I waited over a year before hiring your law firm. I finally reached out to your online help where they were able to help me understand the process and what would happen. In all honesty I absolutely loved working with the individuals that were involved in my case. They were genuine & heartfelt about my case. It felt as though they really cared and were concerned about me, not just as a client but as a person.

"I was afraid that my issue was too small"
I was afraid that my issue was too small to be handled, and that it would just be rejected. Or that I’d end up having to pay for my medical expenses and any of your teams expenses. I would definitely answer yes, it was resolved! I wasn’t ever made out to feel like my little issue didn’t matter, and my expenses were paid for- just what I wanted/needed.

"I am very pleased with the results"
My biggest fear was that it would be pointless to pursue legal action in my case. I felt like maybe I didn’t have much of a case. After speaking with Paul, I realize it was not of my own fault and that others can be held responsible for the pain and suffering I went through.
