What Louisville motorcycle accident victims need to do after a serious collision

After a serious motorcycle accident, an injured victim is faced with huge obstacles. Being forced to deal with injuries, doctors, medical bills, lost work and income, and potentially permanent disability, is very challenging. As is dealing with insurance adjusters.
