    Client Review

    I am very pleased with the outcome and the way Paul handled my case with maximum settlements received. The other insurance carrier was very difficult to handle, although Paul stepped in and took care of everything. He was our Attorney 8 yrs ago during an automobile accident case, as well as the recent accident we had, and will always be our go to Attorney. Paul Englander is the best by far hands down! Thank you Paul for taking care of me and my family!

    I was hit by motor vehicle while walking across a street. I had the good fortune of having Paul recommended to me. In my case, the individual who hit me was underinsured. Thankfully I had an underinsured clause in my policy to cover me in this situation. Paul got the maximum amount for me from both the underinsured motorist who hit me as well as from my own insurance policy. It wasn’t easy. My insurance company originally offered me a very low settlement. Paul fought for me and got me the maximum (and just) amount. In all, it took about two and a half years. In that period, Paul and his team investigated and documented liability, got video evidence and witness statements and obtained all the the records and bills associated with my case. Paul is a great guy and a great lawyer. I highly recommend him if you need legal representation.

    Paul and his team are great people. He took on our case after a rollover accident. He was helpful and very transparent regarding what we should expect during this process. He answered all our questions and concerns, and kept in constant with us. He was great at calming my girlfriends fears and making it so she could concentrate on healing. He is a wonderful lawyer. Hire him. You won’t be disappointed.

    Paul represented me following an accident, he was an absolute pleasure to work with and handled everything for me, from dealing with the insurance company to negotiating our medical bills, etc. and the outcome of my case was significantly better than I was originally anticipating. I’d highly recommend Paul to anyone.

    Motorcycle Fatalities

    Motorcyclists are overrepresented in traffic fatalities. Motorcycles are involved in 14% of all traffic-related fatalities, but represent only 3% of the entire registered motor vehicle fleet. In 2018, 36,560 people died in all traffic crashes, and of that number, 4,985 people died in motorcycle crashes. In addition, motorcyclists are about 28 times more likely than people riding in passenger cars to die in an accident.

    The majority of multi-vehicle motorcycle crashes are caused most often by other drivers who did not see the motorcyclist. Drivers do not always understand the safety challenges faced by motorcyclists such as size and visibility, or how to anticipate or respond to motorcycle riding practices.

    Motorcyclists can make themselves more visible by putting reflective materials on their motorcycles and by keeping headlights on at all times.

    Alcohol, drugs, and some prescription medications may negatively affect a motorcyclist’s judgment, alertness, coordination, reaction time, balance, throttle control, and the ability to shift gears.

    Here are some key statistics on motorcycle crashes in 2016, according to the Department of Transportation:

    • Motorcycle riders involved in fatal crashes were found to have the highest percentage of alcohol-impaired drivers than any other vehicle types, with 25% for motorcycles, 21% for passenger cars, 20% for light trucks, and 2% for large trucks.
    • Thirty-seven percent of motorcycle riders who died in single vehicle crashes were alcohol-impaired.
    • Motorcycle riders killed in traffic crashes at night were three times more frequently alcohol-impaired than those killed during the day.

    Education and experience play a role in motorcycle crashes, of the motorcycle riders involved in fatal crashes in 2017, 29% were riding without valid motorcycle licenses.

    Age is also a consideration in motorcycle accidents. The 40-and-older age group made up 54% of motorcyclists killed in 2016, with the average age being 43. Furthermore, the 50-and-older age group had the highest rate of motorcyclists killed on weekend days.

    Helmets are estimated to be 37% effective in preventing fatal injuries to motorcycle riders, and 41% for motorcycle passengers. In 2018, 71% of motorcyclists wore helmets, which were compliant with Department of Transportation safety standards.

    The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimates that helmets saved  the lives of 1,859 motorcyclists in 2016, and that 802 more lives could have been saved if all motorcyclists had worn helmets.
