HOW WE WORK

Frequently Asked Questions About Motorcycle Accident Claims.

Motorcycle injury cases involve unique challenges. Here are answers to some of the most common questions we hear from riders:


  • What should I do immediately after a motorcycle accident?

    Call 911, get medical attention, and document everything—your injuries, damage to your bike, and the crash scene. Exchange info with other drivers and avoid admitting fault. Then, speak to an attorney as soon as possible.

  • How is fault determined in a motorcycle accident?

    California follows comparative fault rules. That means even if you were partially at fault, you may still be entitled to compensation. A lawyer can help investigate and build a case based on evidence, police reports, and witness statements.

  • What kind of compensation can I recover?

    You may be eligible for compensation covering medical expenses, lost income, future treatment, motorcycle repairs, and pain and suffering. In severe cases, you may also recover for permanent disability or loss of earning capacity.

  • How long do I have to file a claim?

    In California, the statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is two years from the date of the accident. Don’t wait—delays can jeopardize your case and your ability to recover compensation.

  • Will I owe legal fees upfront?

    No. We handle motorcycle accident cases on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless we win your case. Our consultations are always free.
