Motorcycle Accident Lawyer

If you have been injured in a motorcycle accident, you may be facing medical bills, lost income, property damage, and a difficult recovery. Our personal injury team helps injured motorcyclists understand their legal options and pursue the compensation they may be entitled to.

Motorcycle Accident Injuries Can Have Serious Consequences

Motorcycle riders have less physical protection than people traveling in passenger vehicles. Even when a rider follows the rules of the road, a collision caused by another driver can result in serious injuries. A motorcycle accident may lead to emergency treatment, surgery, rehabilitation, time away from work, and long-term physical or emotional challenges. If another person’s negligence caused your accident, you may have a personal injury claim. Our role is to investigate what happened, identify the responsible parties, document your losses, and pursue the compensation available under applicable law.

What Can Cause a Motorcycle Accident?

Motorcycle accidents can happen for many reasons. Common causes may include:

  • A driver failing to see a motorcycle
  • Distracted driving
  • Unsafe lane changes
  • Failure to yield
  • Following a motorcycle too closely
  • Speeding or reckless driving
  • Driving under the influence
  • Dangerous road conditions
  • Defective motorcycle parts or equipment
  • Poorly maintained roads

The specific cause of an accident matters because establishing liability is an important part of a personal injury claim.

Frequently Asked Questions

The deadline depends on the state where the accident occurred and the specific circumstances of the claim. Because missing a legal deadline can affect your rights, it is important to have your case reviewed as soon as possible.
Not every accident requires an attorney. However, legal representation may be especially valuable when injuries are serious, liability is disputed, multiple parties are involved, or an insurance company is challenging your claim.
Insurance companies may dispute liability or argue that an injured rider contributed to an accident. The effect of comparative fault depends on the applicable state law and the facts of the case.
Helmet use can affect a motorcycle accident claim depending on the circumstances and applicable state law. It does not automatically answer the question of who caused the accident or eliminate every potential claim.
Depending on the circumstances, uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage may be relevant. Your available options will depend on the applicable insurance policy and state law.
