Motorcycle accident lawyer

A motorcycle case is not a car case with two wheels.

Insurers know the bias. They use it. The file has to answer speed, lane position, gear, and conspicuity before a jury is asked to. That work starts at intake, not the week before trial.

What the practice takes

  • Driver left turns and unsafe lane changes into a rider.
  • Rear-end impacts, including freeway crashes that total the bike and understate the injury.
  • Lane-splitting collisions. Splitting is legal in California. It is still litigated.
  • Road-condition and public-entity claims, which have a short government-claim deadline.
  • Uninsured and underinsured motorist claims, often the real coverage in a rider file.
  • Wrongful death of a rider, handled with the family and with the coverage laid out first.

General information for California. Not a promise about your crash. Past results do not predict the next file.

Conference table meeting

How a file moves

From the call to a decision.

Intake

What happened, who was driving, where you were treated, and whether a public entity is involved. The firm declines matters that do not fit.

Preserve

Bike, helmet, gear, video, and the police report. Evidence that is gone in a week does not come back in discovery.

Prove

Liability, medicine, and coverage. Experts when the speed or the injury will be argued, not as decoration.

Resolve or try

A settlement is signed only when the number is defensible. If it is not, the case is prepared for a jury.
