When a person’s death is caused by another’s wrongful conduct, suit can be brought to vindicate the person who was killed and to recover damages for the surviving family members or others who depended upon the deceased for financial or emotional support. Companion claims, called survival claims, can also be brought in some states on behalf of the deceased person, usually for claims such as pre-death conscious pain and suffering, pre-death lost earnings, and the like.

Alexandria Virginia Motorcycle Accident Lawyer

Motorcycle riders hurt in crashes with another vehicle frequently suffer serious, life changing injuries. Alexandria Virginia Motorcycle Injury Lawyer Stan Doerrer is a motorcycle rider himself and takes great pride in helping riders who are injured or killed due to another’s negligence get the recovery they deserve. Because motorcyclists lack the protective structure of an automobile or truck, they are significantly more likely to suffer severe or fatal injuries when there is a crash. Unfortunately, more than 80% of all reported motorcycle crashes result in injury or death to the rider. Most motorcycle crashes are caused because motorists do not see the motorcyclist, and they either hit the motorcyclist or cause the rider to take evasive action to avoid being hit. Stan Doerrer is knowledgeable about the types of crashes that frequently occur with motorcyclists, and takes aggressive steps to investigate the cause of the action from the beginning so as to maximize the chance for recovery.

Virginia law allows a plaintiff to recover for, among other things: “any property damage [] sustained in the incident.” See Virginia Model Jury Instruction No. 9.000. But when a car is not a total loss, most auto insurers typically seek to set the value of property damage claims based on the repair value. They simply pay to have the vehicle repaired. But this is not a complete measure of the property damage suffered. When a car is seriously damaged in a crash, and then repaired, its resale value decreases due to the fact of the crash. This is why, for example, a vehicle’s Carfax report lists whether or not the vehicle has been in a crash. Used car buyers pay less for vehicles that […]
