1. Not seeing you is NO excuse
I represent a lot of clients who have been injured while riding their bikes because another driver said they "didn't see them." This is a pretty poor excuse for running over someone. It wouldn't work in a crosswalk, and it shouldn't work on a motorcycle.
2. It's going to hurt. A lot.
Part of the thrill of riding a motorcycle is the feel of being on the open road. Unfortunately in a crash with another vehicle you and your bike are going to be outweighed by at least 5 to 1. What that means is this: If you get hit by another vehicle your injuries are going to be more severe and your case more serious.
3. Your insurance is going to be more important than ever
Because injuries sustained in motorcycle crashes are typically more serious it is even more important that every type of insurance (including your own) is used to ensure that your doctor's bills are paid and your lost wages are covered. You need an attorney for this reason just as much (if not more than) for possibly suing the other driver.
4. Make No Apologies
Riders on motorcycles have the same right to be on the road as anyone else. You don't assume a risk that someone in a car or truck is going to be careless and not watch out for other people on the road. Your case should be handled with no apologies for riding a motorcycle. We have handled many wrecks involving motorcycles and they need a lawyer on their side even more than usual.
