Serving Personal Injury and Accident Victims in East Hartford, CT

It takes only a split second for a pleasurable motorcycle ride to result in a catastrophic accident. Despite having the same rights on the road as other automobiles, motorcycles are often at a disadvantage and are at greater risk of danger.

Due to their size and nature, riding a motorcycle can be dangerous, usually resulting in very severe injuries. Oftentimes, inattentive drivers may fail to see the motorcyclist and since motorcycles do not have the type of protective frame, body, and air bags, which automobiles provide, the resulting accident is often catastrophic.

For many residents of Connecticut and America as a whole, riding a bike is a favorite pastime as well as a convenient mode of transportation. Unfortunately, motorcycle riders are often wrongly tagged as reckless and irresponsible which can make it difficult to get adequate compensation in the event of an accident.

Injured motorcyclists who hire Cava Law Firm can rest assured that their case will be handled by experienced motorcycle accident lawyers who know how to counter negative perceptions and will work hard to get you the compensation you deserve for your injuries and losses.
