How Our Tampa Motorcycle Accident Lawyers Can Help
The attorneys at KFB Law will work with you to ensure you receive all that you’re entitled to in the eyes of the law. We’ll make sure the people responsible for your dog bite attack are held accountable.
Landlords can also be held responsible for dog bite or claw injuries caused by a tenant’s animal. However, a landlord is not strictly liable and a plaintiff would have to show some foreseeability of injury, such as a history of problems with the animal and circumstances surrounding the breed of dog.
It’s important to hire a dog bite lawyer because the statutes under Florida law that deal with dog bite injuries, ownership, animal control agencies, and dangerous breed classifications are complicated.

Our team knows motorcycle law
IFlorida is one of the few states that doesn’t require motorcyclists to carry a type of insurance called personal injury protection (PIP). That can make things tricky for Tampa motorcyclists who get into an accident and aren’t insured, but it also means motorcyclists aren’t bound to the same rules as those with PIP insurance.
Rest assured, we still know how to negotiate with the other party’s insurance to get your damages paid—and keep you from drowning in medical expenses, vehicle repairs, and the additional costs that pile up after an accident.

Types of Injuries Received After a Motorcycle Crash
Motorcycle crashes can result in a wide array of injuries due to the exposed nature of riders. Here are some common types of injuries that motorcyclists may sustain:n:
Head Injuries
Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) are among the most severe injuries motorcyclists can suffer. Even with a helmet, the impact can cause concussions, skull fractures, or long-term brain damage. These injuries can lead to cognitive impairments, memory loss, and emotional difficulties.
Side-Impact CrSpinal Cord Injuries
Damage to the spinal cord can result in partial or complete paralysis. Depending on the injury’s location and severity, victims might experience loss of movement or sensation, impacting their quality of life and independence.
Fractures and Broken Bones
The impact of a crash often causes fractures in the arms, legs, ribs, and pelvis. These injuries can require extensive medical treatment, including surgeries, and may result in long recovery periods.
Road Rash
When a rider is thrown off their bike, they can slide across the pavement, causing severe abrasions known as road rash. This can range from mild to severe, sometimes necessitating skin grafts and leading to permanent scarring.
Internal Injuries
The force of a collision can cause internal bleeding and damage to organs. These injuries are not always immediately apparent but can be life-threatening if not treated promptly.

Damage to muscles, ligaments, and tendons can lead to chronic pain and mobility issues. These injuries often require physical therapy and can have long-term effects on a rider’s ability to perform daily activities.
Emotional Trauma
Beyond physical injuries, motorcycle accidents can leave riders with significant emotional and psychological scars. Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, and depression are common among accident victims, affecting their mental health and well-being.
Our team of Tampa motorcycle accident lawyers has extensive experience dealing with cases involving these injuries. If you or a loved one has been injured in a motorcycle accident, don’t wait to seek legal help.

Common Causes of Motorcycle Crashes
Understanding the common causes of motorcycle crashes can help in prevention and raising awareness among riders and drivers alike:
Distracted Driving
Drivers who are texting, eating, or otherwise distracted can easily overlook motorcyclists. A momentary lapse in attention can lead to catastrophic accidents.
Speeding
Both motorcyclists and other drivers speeding can increase the risk of crashes. High speeds reduce reaction times and increase the severity of collisions.
Alcohol and Drug Use
Impaired driving is a major factor in many motorcycle accidents. Alcohol and drugs impair judgment, coordination, and reaction times, significantly increasing the risk of an accident.
Lane Splitting
Motorcyclists riding between lanes of slow-moving or stopped traffic, a practice known as lane splitting, can be dangerous, especially if drivers are not expecting them.
Weather Conditions
Rain, fog, and other adverse weather conditions can reduce visibility and road traction, making it more challenging for motorcyclists to control their bikes and for drivers to see them.
Left-Turn Accidents
Rain, ice, and snow can create slippery Many motorcycle accidents occur when a vehicle makes a left turn in front of an oncoming motorcycle. This often happens because drivers fail to see the motorcycle or misjudge its speed.
Road Hazards
Potholes, debris, uneven pavement, and other road hazards pose a significant threat to motorcyclists. Unlike cars, motorcycles are more susceptible to losing control when encountering such obstacles.
Vehicle Defects
Mechanical failures, such as brake or tire problems, can lead to accidents. It’s crucial for motorcyclists to regularly maintain their bikes to ensure they are in good working condition.

Do I need a lawyer if I wasn’t at fault for my motorcycle accident?
It is always good to consult an experienced Tampa motorcycle accident lawyer. Insurance companies handle millions of dollars in claims each year that they settle. Insurance is a private enterprise aiming to maximize profit, not pay out in claims. An attorney skilled in personal injury law can understand how to handle insurance adjusters. Unfortunately, insurers often intimidate you into taking lower-priced offers without legal advice. It’s best to protect yourself and your interests with a lawyer because that isn’t ultimately the insurance company’s job.
