Facial damage occurs in roughly ten percent of motorcycle accident victims, according to YD Legal, which built its Columbus, Ohio practice around the specific injury patterns riders face, from foot and leg impact injuries to what the firm calls biker’s arm, the arm fractures that happen when a rider tries to break a fall. The firm is located at 1243 S High St, Columbus, OH 43206, and can be reached at 614-443-2800.
YD Legal advises that after a motorcycle accident, riders should address any medical needs first, then exchange information with other parties, call police to start a report, and photograph the scene if they are able to. The firm says compiling that information into an organized file early on helps once a client contacts a Columbus motorcycle accident law firm familiar with the area’s local standards.
The firm also treats emotional distress and trauma as a recognized category of harm alongside physical injuries such as head trauma, especially when a helmet was not worn, and spinal or lower back injuries. YD Legal offers a free consultation to evaluate whether a rider has a viable case before deciding on next legal steps, and the firm’s determination of what caused a given crash forms part of that early evaluation process.
The firm frames itself as a Columbus practice built specifically around motorcycle collisions rather than treating them as a subset of general car accident work, on the reasoning that riders face a distinct set of risks and injury patterns that a generalist practice may not weigh the same way.
