According to police, around 7:20 a.m., 26-year-old Anthony Burgess was traveling along the roadway on a motorcycle when his vehicle collided with the rear-end of a truck. Burgess was injured in the collision and transported to an area hospital where he was later pronounced deceased as the result of injuries sustained.

Motorcycle Accidents In Connecticut

According to reports published by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, one out of every ten traffic fatalities involves a motorcycle collision. It is alarming to know that motorcycles account for less than 1% of vehicles on roadways across our country while drivers continue to account for nearly 15% of all persons killed in traffic collisions.

In Connecticut, over 30 people die annually in motorcycle collisions. When these individuals lose their lives, they often leave behind friends and family members who grieve their loss. Surviving family members should contact a Connecticut motorcycle accident attorney as soon as possible to protect their legal rights.

Connecticut wrongful death attorneys at the Law Offices of Paul Levin believe that grieving families should not have to deal with all the consequences of fatal collisions on their own. Our law firm welcomes and encourages surviving family members to call (860) 322-5302 to see how our personal injury attorneys in Connecticut can help you get justice for your loved one.

The following case is successfully handled in Connecticut courts by Attorney Levin.
