First of all, if you've been in a motorcycle accident with injuries, you have a lot to think about. Not only must you focus on healing, but the medical bills are piling up and, typically, you may be facing the insurance companies' huge bureaucracies. It's like David vs. Goliath, only you are arriving to the fight already injured!
Second, you're not a lawyer and the insurance companies know it. Most people don't even know their rights after a motorcycle accident, let alone how to fight for them. Your own insurance company may work with you but they may not always do what's best for you. The defendant's insurance company is simply going to make it hard on you and they will do everything they can to limit what they pay you.
Additionally, a personal injury attorney can even help to lower or eliminate the medical bills that you face.
Finally, you have a family and a job and you need to heal for them. Fighting for your rights, and securing them, is a full-time job. Can you heal with that much stress?
