Motorcycle Accidents

Riders injured by drivers who didn't see them or failed to yield.

Motorcyclists have no steel frame protecting them. When a driver doesn't see them or fails to yield, the consequences are fractures, head injuries, and months of recovery.

Insurance companies also tend to start from a bias: that the rider was at fault. We fight that stigma with evidence — accident reconstruction, witnesses, and medical records — to prove what really happened and recover the compensation you're owed.

Cases we handle

  • Drivers turning left without yielding
  • Lane changes without seeing the rider
  • Distracted drivers or texting behind the wheel
  • Car doors opened into the roadway
  • Dangerous road conditions
  • Crashes caused by drunk drivers

What to do if this happened to you

  1. 1

    Report the accident and get medical attention immediately.

  2. 2

    Keep your helmet, gear, and bike exactly as they are — they're evidence.

  3. 3

    Take photos of the scene and get witness information.

  4. 4

    Don't admit fault or give statements to the other insurer.

  5. 5

    Talk to an attorney before negotiating anything.
