Motorcycle Safety

Operating a bike entails great responsibility on the part of the owner. With that in mind, here’s a quick refresher on the basics of motorcycling safety:

Ride defensively: Unfortunately, it’s possible to follow all of the rules of the road and still end up in an accident. The best way to prevent this from happening to you is to keep an eye out for potential safety hazards, such as roadway obstructions or careless motorists.
Wear appropriate gear: This, of course, includes a DOT-approved helmet. But it also includes items such as gloves, elbow and knee pads, and durable clothing that covers your entire body.
Ride sober: Operating a motorcycle requires quick reflexes and keen attention to the surrounding environment. Alcohol, illicit drugs, and even some prescription medications can limit your ability to respond to unexpected situations.
Perform a pre-ride equipment check: Make sure the tires are inflated to the proper pressure, all lights are in good working order, and there’s no sign of leaking oil or other fluids. Mirrors should be properly aligned, the throttling clutch should operate correctly, and the horn should work as designed.

First off I want to thank Rutter Mills for the outstanding work they continue to do. I had a case recently and it was a complex one. My lawyer, Will Nexsen did an amazing job. I would highly recommend him and Rutter Mills. I want to give a big thanks to Julia, as well, for keeping me constantly in the loop. She always texted or called me back immediately with any questions and concerns I had. I greatly appreciated that.

I heard a lot of great things about Rutter Mills, so I took the leap and had them file my disability claim. I was worried and stressed but they made the process worry free. They did all the hard work for me. I would absolutely recommend this law firm.

After getting hurt at work I had problems with workers compensation right away. Comp was denying claims for medical treatment and not paying correct amount of wages. I was very worried and stressed till I called Rutter Mills. Attorney Jesse Pound with paralegal Jordan Johnson made all my problems go away. Thank you so much for all your help.

Shavante M.

Being involved in my first motor vehicle incident was scary and confusing (as you could imagine); but the Rutter Mills team helped me navigate everything from start to finish. I worked with Will Nexsen and his colleagues Lindsey and Denise. They made it a point to keep me informed with constant updates to my case, explaining what to expect if/when we were to go to court and just making sure I was okay and If anything was needed from them to help make this as easy for me as possible. In the end, they worked to get an offer that satisfied me and helped to keep me out of court. That was a huge blessing as I am at the end of my 1st pregnancy and not sure how the back and forth would have taken a toll on me; so my family and I are very grateful for that.
