Exceptional Care and Communication After a Hit and Run
My husband and I were involved in a hit and run this past October. I hesitated before calling Rob Levine Law, and it was scary at first, but I am so glad I did. Kasch, Delaney (our lawyer), and Darling have been very patient in answering all our questions.
They make sure to call me with updates, and they are also very nice and kind. It doesn’t feel as scary anymore because of how they treat us.

Understanding the Motorcycle Accident Process
Knowing what to expect during the personal injury process can help you feel more confident about the timeline and avoid any surprises.
- Step 1 – Immediate Medical Treatment: Seek medical attention as soon as possible after the accident, both to protect your health and to create a clear record of your injuries for your claim.
- Step 2 – Contact a Lawyer: Consult a motorcycle accident lawyer early to protect your rights and ensure you meet important deadlines, including the statute of limitations for filing your claim.
- Step 3 – Investigation and Evidence Collection: Your attorney will gather key evidence, such as the police report, witness statements, and photos of the scene, to build a strong case, and you can also access helpful tools to obtain your accident report quickly.
- Step 4 – Negotiation and Settlement: Your lawyer will negotiate with the insurance company to pursue a fair settlement, and if necessary, prepare to take your case to court.
Who May Be Liable for Your Motorcycle Accident?
Several different parties can be held responsible for your damages after a motorcycle collision. The key to identifying who is at fault is looking at the details of the incident.
- Other Drivers: A driver may be held responsible for an accident if their negligence, reckless behavior, or violations of traffic laws caused the crash. For instance, a driver who fails to keep a proper lookout on Route 1 and strikes a motorcycle during an improper lane change may be liable for the motorcyclist’s injuries.
- Trucking Companies or Employers: A trucking company or employer may be liable for poor training, negligent hiring, or dangerous operating practices. For instance, if a motorcyclist is riding on Route 138 and is hit by a fatigued trucker, the trucking company may be liable for requiring the driver to exceed the number of allowable hours.
- Vehicle Manufacturers: A vehicle manufacturer may be responsible for a crash if a defective motorcycle part or vehicle defect contributed to it or made the rider’s injuries worse. For instance, if a tire blowout occurs while a rider is traveling on Route 2 in South Kingstown, the tire manufacturer may be liable for a defect.
What If I Am Found Partly at Fault for a Motorcycle Accident in South Kingstown?
As a motorcyclist, your own negligence or failure to follow Rhode Island’s motorcycle laws can affect liability. However, if you share partial fault for a motorcycle accident, you may still be entitled to recover some compensation. Under R.I. Gen. Laws § 9-20-4, Rhode Island follows a pure comparative fault system, which allows you to recover compensation as long as you are not entirely to blame for an accident. However, your compensation will be reduced in proportion to your share of the blame.
For instance, if you sustain $100,000 in damages and are 30% at fault for the accident, you can still recover 70% of your damages or $70,000.
What Types of Compensation Can You Recover in a Motorcycle Accident Claim?
In a motorcycle accident claim, you can seek compensation for various losses. These include economic damages, such as current and future medical bills, lost wages, and bike repairs, and non-economic damages for less tangible losses, such as pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life.
In cases involving egregious misconduct, like drunk driving or intentional harm, a court may award punitive damages.
