Motorcyclists face unique dangers on the road. Without the protective shell of a car, even a minor collision can result in serious injuries. Unfortunately, motorcycle riders are often unfairly blamed for accidents that were caused by negligent drivers who failed to see them or share the road safely.
Common Motorcycle Accident Scenarios
Left-turn accidents (where a car turns into a motorcycle's path), lane-change collisions, rear-end crashes, dooring incidents, and road hazard accidents are among the most common scenarios. In many cases, the other driver simply didn't see the motorcyclist — or didn't look.
Fighting Bias Against Motorcyclists
Insurance companies often try to shift blame to motorcycle riders, arguing they were speeding, weaving, or being reckless. I fight these biases head-on, using evidence, witness testimony, and accident reconstruction to establish what really happened.
Motorcycle Accident Injuries
Road rash, broken bones, traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, and limb amputations are tragically common in motorcycle accidents. These injuries often require extensive medical treatment, rehabilitation, and long-term care.
Your Rights as a Motorcyclist
Texas law gives motorcyclists the same rights as any other vehicle on the road. If another driver's negligence caused your accident, you have the right to pursue compensation for your injuries, medical bills, lost income, and pain and suffering.
