When a motorcyclist is involved in a collision with an automobile or truck, the result is almost always a serious injury. One of the most respected motorcycle accident attorneys in Florida, Richard Troutman has helped many motorcyclists obtain just compensation from those responsible for such accidents. If you or someone you love has been involved in a motorcycle accident while riding a sportbike, a Harley, or any other type of motorcycle, please contact the Law Offices of Richard Troutman today for a review of your case. Whether you are suffering the financial hardships of a serious personal injury or watching someone you love endure the agony of a traumatic brain injury, our attorneys in Florida can help you achieve the justice you deserve.
It is legal in the State of Florida for those over the age of 20 to operate a motorcycle without a helmet. However, insurance companies may attempt to shift the blame from the at-fault driver to the motorcyclist, and argue that the motorcyclist contributed to his or her injury by not wearing a helmet, even when the accident was not their fault. If you were involved in a motorcycle accident and were not wearing a helmet, you need an experienced motorcycle attorney to handle your case. Failure to wear a helmet makes motorcyclists particularly vulnerable to traumatic brain injury, or TBI, in the event of an accident. TBI is a serious brain injury that can affect personality, speech, cognitive thinking, motor skills, and all other abilities. Many patients with a TBI are no longer able to work; most of those require full-time care and suffer extreme financial hardships as a result of mounting medical bills. The emotional trauma resulting from such brain injuries often affects the victim’s family, as well. In many cases, accidents that result in such serious injuries as TBI are the fault of reckless or negligent automobile or truck drivers. If someone you love has sustained a traumatic brain injury, our attorneys in Florida may be able to help you. Contact the Law Offices of Richard Troutman for a review of your case today.
Because motorcyclists do not have the impact-reducing shell that automobile drivers have to protect them during accidents, motorcycle riders are at increased risk for severe injury. Hard falls, collision impact, bone breaks, burns, and other injuries can cause permanent disfigurement. This disfigurement is not only emotionally difficult to accept, but it can also affect the victim’s ability to perform job duties, interact comfortably in social situations, and even complete daily tasks. It can ultimately lead to severe depression or the inability to function normally. If you or a loved one has been disfigured in a motorcycle accident, our attorneys in Florida may be able to help you obtain compensation for your pain, suffering, and other damages. Please contact the Law Offices of Richard Troutman today for an evaluation of your case.
Distracted, aggressive drivers are prevalent on our highways, and accidents are an everyday occurrence. Often, these accidents involve motorcycle riders.

Even if you are not sure whether the other driver was at fault, please contact the Law Offices of Richard Troutman for a review of your case. Richard Troutman is one of the most experienced motorcycle accident attorneys in Florida and is ready to help you and your family in your time of need.
A fall during a motorcycle accident can result in any number of debilitating injuries, including road rash, sprains, cuts, and fractures. Bone fractures are particularly painful and require a lengthy recovery. Having to wear a cast can seriously affect your ability to go about your daily activities. You might be unable to perform your job duties, exercise, or participate in recreational activities. You may also lose the ability to drive. If you or a loved one has suffered a fracture in a motorcycle accident, the attorneys at the Law Offices of Richard Troutman in the Orlando, Florida, area may be able to help. We are experienced in all areas of personal injury law and will build the strongest case possible to ensure that those at fault are made to answer for their negligence.
A common injury for motorcycle accident victims, “road rash” consists of severe bruises, cuts, and scraps usually acquired from sliding across the asphalt. While many motorcyclists wear special attire such as thick, durable denim or leather, they are still susceptible to these painful skin injuries. While the cuts and scrapes can be minor, if left untreated or infection develops, “road rash” can become more serious.
Although many motorcyclists wear clothing made of such thick, durable materials as denim or leather, they are still susceptible to painful skin injuries when they are involved in an accident. Known collectively as “road rash,” injuries such as bruises, skinned knees, and wounds with gravel in them can become serious if an infection develops or if they go untreated. Road rash can also be traumatic in cases of high-speed crashes. If you or someone you love has suffered road rash in a motorcycle accident, our attorneys in Florida would be pleased to review your case. Please contact the Law Offices of Richard Troutman today.
Among the most debilitating of all injuries, spinal cord injuries are almost always long-term and result in permanent injuries in most cases. A majority of victims require full-time care and will never be able to work again. Many motorcycle accidents resulting in spinal cord injuries are caused by someone else’s negligent or careless driving. If you or a loved one has suffered a spinal cord injury, the attorneys at the Law Offices of Richard Troutman may be able to help you obtain compensation for your damages. Please contact our attorneys in the Orlando suburb of Winter Park, Florida, for a review of your case.
The loss of a loved one is traumatic enough, but when that loss is someone else’s fault, the pain is intensified. A drunk driver who kills a motorcyclist, an inattentive semi-truck driver who collides with a motorcyclist, or a hit-and-run driver can all be held liable in cases of wrongful death. If you have lost a loved one due to the negligence or recklessness of another driver, please contact our motorcycle accident attorneys in Florida today for an evaluation of your case.
Although motorcycles are subjected to rigorous safety tests, substandard equipment is sometimes made available to the public. Defective tires, brakes, and other motorcycle parts can cause riders to lose control of their bikes, putting them at serious risk for injury or even death. Defective helmets fail to protect motorcyclists from head injury, including traumatic brain injury. Our attorneys in Florida have helped many motorcycle accident victims and their families obtain compensation from those responsible for faulty equipment. If you or a loved one has been injured due to defective motorcycle equipment, please contact the Law Offices of Richard Troutman today.
Motorcycle riders are more vulnerable to injury than any other driver on the road. When unduly hazardous road conditions exist, the likelihood of a motorcycle rider suffering a substantial injury increases dramatically. Unmarked areas of road construction, surfaces that freeze quickly and aren’t marked with warning signs, slippery roads, dangerous speed limits, and unmarked curves can all contribute to motorcycle accidents. If you or someone you love has been injured in a motorcycle accident due to hazardous road conditions, our attorneys in Florida may be able to help you obtain damages for your pain, suffering, and losses. Contact the Law Offices of Richard Troutman if you have any questions or would like for us to review your case.
