The office of Cochran and Douglas showed my family true compassion throughout the entire process of my motorcycle accident. All it took was a phone call and Cole showed up himself at the hospital within an hour to assure me that the legal portion would be handled professionally so I could focus on my family and healing. Everyone at the office is helpful and friendly and made a hard process easy. I'll be recommending them to everyone without a doubt.

Holding Negligent Parties Accountable

Let our motorcycle accident attorneys in Tacoma, WA, hold negligent parties accountable for your losses. Over and over, our lawyers have gone up against negligent drivers and insurance companies and won. We aren’t afraid to face:

Careless Drivers

Distracted driving and drunk driving cause countless motorcycle accidents. Our lawyers can determine the root cause of your accident and hold the other driver accountable for their negligent actions.

Parts Manufacturers

Faulty parts and repairs can ultimately lead to dangerous outcomes. For example, a misaligned tire can cause your bike to wobble. If your bike has a defective part, our personal injury lawyers can hold the manufacturer of the motorcycle or its components accountable.

Government Agencies

Government agencies are responsible for managing roads and keeping them safe. If a pothole, improper road signage, poorly designed road, or obstructed road caused your accident, the government may be held responsible for your injuries.

Insurance Companies

When insurance companies wrongfully deny your benefits, our attorneys can hold them accountable. If your insurance company is offering you much less than you deserve, we will fight for fair compensation.

Let Us Handle Insurance Companies

If you were injured in an accident, the other party’s insurance representative will attempt to place the blame on you. Your own insurance company will try to minimize your settlement as much as possible. Even a simple apology can be used against you in your motorcycle accident case.

Having our attorneys on your side allows you to simply point the insurance companies in the direction of our law firm, where we can handle all statements and other claim details. Cochran Douglas provides an aggressive response to insurance posturing. We can begin representing you as soon as you hire an attorney at our firm.

Attend Doctor’s Appointments

Motorcycle accident injuries can be particularly devastating. Be sure to attend all doctor’s appointments so we can gather accurate medical records that illustrate the extent of your injuries and medical treatments. Even if you think your injuries aren’t that severe, it’s important to leave a paper trail in case an injury develops later.

Gather Evidence

Photos and videos of the scene of the accident, the damage to your vehicle, and your injuries can strengthen your personal injury claim. Back up your photos and videos where they’re easily accessible. One easy way to do this is to email them to yourself.

Keep Records

Save all bills and receipts related to your accident. It can also help to keep a daily record of your injuries and how they progress.

Stay Off Social Media

Anything you post on social media can be used against you as proof that you’re not as injured as you claim to be.
