Why Do You Need a Lawyer for a Motorcycle Accident?

We can protect your rights and ensure you get the compensation you deserve. We will help you navigate the complexities of the legal system and gather the information and documentation you need to prove your case.

What Types of Motorcycle Accidents Are Litigated?

Motorcycle accidents are typically litigated if there is a question as to who is at fault for the accident. One or more drivers can be considered at fault, and non-drivers can also contribute to accidents. If insurance companies and drivers cannot agree as to who is at fault, one of the parties can file a personal injury lawsuit and ask a judge or jury to decide. This will result in either a settlement, dismissal, or an award of judgment for one of the parties.
