Overview
Motorcycle accident law expertise
Every day there are millions of cars and trucks on the road, thousands of planes in the air and boats, trains and motorcycles on the move. Unfortunately, not every motorcyclist arrives safely at their destination. Millions of Americans and their family members annually have their travel plans upended by crashes and accidents due to road conditions, other motorists and motor vehicles and additional causes of motorcycle accidents, leading to the need for motorcycle accident lawyers.
Common causes of motorcycle accidents for motorcyclists range from other parties driving under the influence, improperly addressing their blind spots, texting or talking on their phone, inattentiveness, speeding, or otherwise disobeying established rules for road conditions and intersections or motorcycle safety.
If you or your family members are injured as a motorcyclist or motorcycle rider where another party was at fault, consult with our motorcycle accident lawyers as you may be entitled to much more than just the damages for repairing your vehicle or personal property; you may also be entitled to damages for your medical treatments and medical expenses, any lost income, and pain and suffering for injuries such as broken bones or road rash as a motorcycle accident victim.

Motorcycle transportation risks
Motorcycles are a popular form of transportation for Americans, with 8.32 million registered in the United States, over 280,000 of them in Illinois alone. Despite the motorcycle's prevalence on the road and their status as part of Americana, motorcycle drivers are often at higher risk of injuries or fatalities than their fellow drivers of light trucks or passenger vehicles. The consequences of motorcycle accidents can be devastating, leading to property damage, medical treatment for serious injuries and even wrongful death of you or a loved one.
Motorcycle riders are 10 times as likely to be killed in a fatal accident than occupants of light trucks and six times as likely as passenger vehicles. When adjusted for every 100,000 miles traveled, motorcycle occupants are almost 43 times as likely to be killed in accidents than occupants of light trucks and 28 times more likely than passengers in cars. Overall, motorcycles are 29 times more likely than other forms of consumer transportation to suffer serious injuries or worse in motor vehicle accidents. Road rash, broken bones, traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, fatal injuries and more are all found at accident scenes by police officers. Motorcycle safety by motorists and motorcyclists, in addition to other drivers, is paramount to avoid ending up on a police report or needing medical care or medical attention, leading to medical bills, for all parties involved in daily transportation.
Insurance companies and motorcycle accident cases
Insurance companies and their adjusters play significant roles in working on the prevention of motorcycle crashes for bikers and the post-accident recovery process for injury cases. According to statistics reviewed by driver’s insurance companies, the rates for motorcyclists are affected by the potential of personal injury, typically serious injuries and sometimes fatalities. Wearing a helmet not only helps prevent head injuries but also contributes to bringing down the cost of insurance for motorcyclists.
In injury cases arising out of traffic accidents or car accidents, such as head-on collisions, motorcyclists will have property damage and medical bills from medical care from seeking medical attention that may cause them serious economic harm. Motorcycle accident victims need help and legal advice to navigate their post-motorcycle injury recovery from a motorcycle wreck via motorcycle accident lawyers with the experience to provide legal counsel in personal injury for motorists, motorcyclists and others involved in a motorcycle or car accident.
