Motorcycle Accidents
Rider claims, including the assumption that the motorcyclist must have been speeding or splitting lanes recklessly. We take that assumption apart with evidence.
Rider cases carry a bias problem before they carry a liability problem. Adjusters, and sometimes jurors, start from the belief that the motorcyclist created the risk. Left-turning drivers who did not see the bike cause a large share of these collisions.
We answer bias with reconstruction: sight lines, speed from physical evidence, and where it exists, helmet camera or nearby surveillance footage. Facts move an adjuster who has already decided.
What we do on a case like this
- Reconstruction retained early where speed is disputed
- Helmet, gear, and bike preserved as evidence
- Comparative fault arguments answered with physics
- Handled by people who do not assume you were at fault
Questions and Answers
Q.I was not wearing a helmet. Does that end it?+−
No. Depending on the state it may reduce recovery for head injuries specifically, and it has no bearing on a broken leg. It does not eliminate a claim.
Q.The driver says they never saw me.+−
That is an admission of a failure to look, not a defense. Failing to see a visible motorcycle is precisely the negligence at issue.
Past results do not guarantee a similar outcome. Every case turns on its own facts, and nothing on this page is legal advice or creates an attorney-client relationship.
Also in Vehicle Collisions
Car Accidents
Collision claims from rear-enders to multi-vehicle wrecks, including hit and run, and drivers who turn out to be uninsured or barely insured.
Truck and Commercial Vehicle
Collisions with tractor-trailers, delivery vans, and company fleets, where federal safety regulations and a corporate defendant change how the case is built.
Rideshare Injury
Claims for passengers, other drivers, pedestrians, and rideshare drivers themselves, where which policy pays depends on what the app was doing at that moment.
