SAN DIEGO ATV ACCIDENT LAWYER

ATV accidents are an unfortunate end to a fun day outdoors, but they do happen. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission report suggests rising injuries from ATV accidents. Most accident victims are males, and a particularly sobering fact is that children 16 and under make up a sizeable part of ATV accident fatalities. If you or a loved one were injured or died of injuries from an ATV accident, our experienced attorneys could help you get much-needed compensation.

ATVs, or all-terrain vehicles, come in a few other forms, such as four-wheelers, quads, and off-road vehicles. With any of these recreational vehicles, there are no cages or protective features around the driver, which increases their danger. In the U.S., about 105,000 annual ATV accident injuries need an emergency room visit, according to the CPSC‘s count, and the rate of hospitalizations is increasing. 

Your injuries following an ATV accident can impact you for a long time, if not the rest of your life. ATV accidents affect the body in the following areas:

• Head and neck (majority), including traumatic brain injuries.
• Upper torso and limbs, such as broken bones or spinal cord injuries.
• Torso, such as lacerations and bruising, but also possible internal damage.
• Injuries to the legs. 

That list of common injuries alone is scary. A San Diego ATV accident lawyer has experience with cases involving severe injuries. We can help estimate your damages in a personal injury case. At Mova Law Group, we also have access to top medical professionals and can handle your care.

Our expert personal injury lawyers at Mova Law Group have seen enough ATV accident cases to know some factors that may have a role in your crash. 

The most common cause of ATV injuries is a crash or collision. 

Another rider may be responsible for your injuries.

• Given the amount of younger people riding four-wheelers, it is safe to assume they lack experience handling motor vehicles. An ATV rider who doesn’t know how to handle their ride is risky. Add in distractions or alcohol consumption, and the situation gets dangerous fast.
• Another hazard is having more people on an ATV than suggested. One extra person can cause tipping or steering issues.

Product defects are another common reason for crashes, especially in cases of rollovers. 

• Brake or steering issues, tire pressure, clutch, or suspension problems can cause a collision with hazards or a fall down steep slopes.
• Gas tanks can explode.
• If your ATV vehicle crashes due to faulty parts, you may be able to file a product liability claim for product defects against the ATV manufacturers or distributors.

If your ATV crashed due to faulty products and was a rental, you may have a case against the company that loaned you the defective product. 

• If a rental company fails to provide helmets or other safety equipment, you may be able to hold them liable for your accident.

Depending on the location you are riding in, your ATV could be in a car accident with another motor vehicle. 

• In cases like these, the other driver, if negligent, may be liable for your ATV accident.

You may file an accident claim against the landowner for premises liability. 

• The landowner may have failed to keep the property safe for ATV riders by removing obstructions or limiting hazards.

One of San Diego’s top personal injury attorneys from Mova Law Group can help you determine who is at fault for your or a family member’s serious injuries. We have experience in all sorts of personal injury claims, and our expertise means we can calculate and pursue the maximum financial compensation for you.

Given that ATV vehicles have no cage or top safety features, it’s not surprising that many people need to visit the ER after a crash. People can be thrown or pinned by their own ride. You must seek medical attention immediately after an ATV accident so that no injury gets overlooked.

Our ATV accident attorneys have seen all manner of injuries coming from ATV crashes. Most damage in an ATV accident happens to the head, neck, shoulder, and arm areas. Injuries include bruises, abrasions, and lacerations, but also much worse, such as:

• Traumatic brain injuries, including concussions.
• Whiplash injuries.
• Spinal cord injuries, and even quadriplegia.
• Fractured bones.

Damage to the lower part of the body can be severe too. The following injuries may occur:

• Broken bones.
• Lower spinal cord injuries, possibly leading to paraplegia.
• Burns.
• Internal organ damage.

Your skilled personal injury lawyer can review your medical records. We can then estimate what you can expect for treatment (and resulting medical bills). This amount is essential in getting you a fair settlement for your losses.

If you or a loved one are injured or they die in an ATV accident, Mova Law Group wants to help you recover. There is no way to return to how things were.

The experts we use can back up your story and prove you were not at fault for your injuries. 

Once your insurance company hears about your accident, they will call you. Be highly cautious speaking with anyone about your personal injury case.
