I live in Shreveport, LA, and I was recently involved in a motorcycle crash. I was the passenger on the back of the motorcycle. My boyfriend was driving the motorcycle when a car made an illegal turn from the wrong lane in front of us. My boyfriend and I were both injured as a result of the accident. Do I have the right to file a lawsuit? How can personal injury lawyers help me?

I am sorry that you were involved in a motorcycle accident. If you were injured in a motor vehicle accident that was caused by someone else, then you have legal rights that should be protected.

You do have the right to file a lawsuit, but that may not be necessary. Instead, you can file a claim. What’s the difference?

First, you have the right to file a personal injury claim against the insurance company of the car that made the illegal turn.

This claim would include your injuries and any damage to your property. The injury claim would include your medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
