Steps of the Motorcycle Accident Claim Process

Your Burger Law motorcycle wreck attorney will help you through each step of your Missouri or Illinois motorcycle
accident injury claim, whether it settles quickly, takes rounds of negotiations or requires a jury trial. In
addition to communication back and forth between the defendant’s insurance company, making sure all legal
requirements are met, collecting evidence and other tasks that help make the process easier on you, we will provide
fierce and experienced litigation skills during the motorcycle lawsuit steps outlined below.

File a complaint. First, we must file a complaint with the court. As your motorcycle accident lawyer, we
will draft the documents required to file your complaint with the court. In the complaint, we must compile and
present all the facts surrounding the accident and what we allege the defendant did to harm you.
Serve the papers. Next, papers must be served to the defendant to notify them that there is a lawsuit
against them. You do not have to worry about any of this. We will ensure that the papers are served, hiring a
process server or another party to handle this.
Conduct a discovery. After being served, the defendant must respond to the complaint. At that point, we
enter the discovery phase. Both parties file requests to obtain all available documentation and paperwork
related to the case
Mediation.Your motorcycle accident suit may or may not require mediation. Both parties may mutually and
agree to a voluntary mediation or a judge may require mediation. If your case enters mediation, we will brief
you on exactly what to expect. You, your lawyer, and the defense party will all meet together with a
professional mediator who will attempt to facilitate an agreement that is acceptable to both pirates.
Deposition. Depositions are a pre-trial process in which witnesses make recorded, sworn testimony. Your
skilled trial injury lawyer from Burger Law has extensive experience in deposing witnesses and will
strategically use the deposition process to state your case and show the defendant’s negligence.
Trial. If your case cannot be settled outside of court, we will take your fight to trial. Our seasoned
attorneys are prepared to take any case to trial if it becomes necessary. We have the skills and experience to
present your case and appeal to the jury. If your suit is set for trial, we will prepare extensively and fight
in court to get you the settlement you deserve.
