A: First, check for injuries and call 911. If it’s safe, move your vehicle out of traffic. Exchange insurance and contact info with the other driver, and take photos of the scene. Then, seek medical attention—even if you feel okay—and contact a personal injury attorney before speaking to any insurance adjusters.
A: Motorcyclists often face more severe injuries and unfair bias from insurers. Iowa and Nebraska are both “fault” states. This means the at-fault party is responsible for damages. Our attorneys fight to ensure bikers get full compensation for medical bills, lost income, and pain and suffering.
A: You’re not required to have one—but you should. Employers and their insurance companies often deny claims or pressure injured workers to return before they’re ready. We help protect your rights, ensure proper medical treatment, and pursue full benefits if you’re hurt on the job.
A: To qualify, you must have a medical condition that prevents you from working for at least 12 months or is expected to result in death. You also need a sufficient work history to earn enough “credits.” We can help assess your eligibility and handle the application process.
