Motorcycle Accident Lawyer
You get unparalleled freedom when you take your motorcycle out for a ride. Getting on your motorcycle isn’t just a mundane form of transportation; it’s a way of life. But a single motorcycle trip can also alter the course of your life. Motorcycle accidents can lead to devastating injuries. After all, you are not protected by the same safety equipment as in a car or truck. Even if you are wearing a helmet or other protective gear, the chances of serious injury during a motorcycle accident are high.

Motorcycle accidents can cause serious headaches, even with minor injuries. Your motorcycle can be damaged to the point of not having reliable transportation. And then there are the insurance companies. Anyone who files a claim after a motorcycle accident does not know how long it will take for them to receive their compensation. The long hours on the phone (especially on hold), the adjusters working hard to give you the least compensation possible, and the feeling that the insurance companies are working against you. It only leads to even more frustration. Luckily, you don’t have to fight these giant corporations alone.
If you were involved in a motorcycle accident, you need a trusted personal injury lawyer who understands the insurance company’s “tricks.” A lawyer ready to fight hard ensures that these companies aren’t just taking advantage of your vulnerable position. After all, you want to receive fair compensation for any pain and suffering, lost work time, or damage to your bike.
Ward Law has helped countless victims of motorcycle collisions to obtain their fair share of compensation. With over 20 years of legal experience, we prevent insurance companies from taking advantage of you. You’ve been through enough already, so let us handle the litigation and negotiation!
Unfortunately, those who don’t seek legal advice often make critical errors that cost them precious settlement money. For Spanish-speaking individuals involved in a motorcycle accident, filing a claim can be even more difficult. After all, even those fluent in English have a very difficult time understanding the insurance company lingo. Don’t let language barriers keep you from achieving the settlement you deserve! At Ward Law, we empower English- and Spanish-speaking personal injury victims to receive full compensation for their claims!
Common Types of Motorcycle Accident Claims We Settle
Ward Law believes that anyone who suffers a personal injury due to someone else needs to receive adequate compensation for their pain. This includes money to support a family, pay rising bills, and get back on your feet. Seeking help at Ward Law ensures you have a trusted partner who will examine all aspects of your accident to build a case. According to a 2016 report from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, more than 80% of reported motorcycle accidents resulted in injury or death. About 1/3 of all motorcycle crashes with multiple vehicles occurred because another driver failed to check for a motorcyclist at an intersection or while turning.
Even if you do everything you can to stay safe on your motorcycle, these accidents can endanger your life and livelihood. Don’t let the negligence of other drivers destroy your family’s financial future. Ward Law is ready to help you no matter what type of motorcycle accident caused your injury.

Alcohol and other drugs affect a driver’s ability to drive safely. When a drunk driver causes your motorcycle accident, we are ready to help. -
Even with laws that prohibit drivers from using cell phones and other mobile devices, people still need to check their phones. Checking text messages while driving distracts a person from safely sharing the road with other drivers, including motorcyclists. -
When distracted or in unsafe road conditions, a driver may not react safely, leading to a rear-end collision. While this may only result in a minor bumper-to-bumper collision for most cars, most collisions with motorcyclists result in devastating injuries. -
Driving risks are not limited to the street. Parking lots can be dangerous terrain for motorcyclists. Since motorcycles are less visible than cars, careless drivers backing out of parking lots can seriously injure motorcyclists simply looking for a parking space. -
Speeding, tailgating, or changing lanes puts nearby motorcyclists at risk. Those who do not follow the simple rules of the road can endanger the life of a motorcyclist. -
Some vehicles flee the scene of an accident, either out of fear of being caught or simply not realizing they hit a motorcyclist. This illegal act can make your insurance claim even more difficult to process.

Immediate Steps to Take After a Motorcycle Accident
If you are involved in a motorcycle accident, you should first ensure you are safe. If possible, get to a safe part of the road and call the local police. Take pictures of the scene and any damage, or ask someone nearby to help you do so. When the police arrive on the scene, they will write an accident report, which will be sent to the insurance companies.
If you have suffered a medical injury, get medical help immediately. Your health and well-being should be your first concern. Being in an accident can be a traumatic experience, but emergency services can help you through this difficult time.
Contact your insurance company as soon as possible. A claim will be opened based on the information you provided and the accident report filed by the police.
If the accident was not your fault, seek the help of a personal injury attorney. Insurance companies tend to underestimate your injuries and damages to save money. Do not settle for their offers until you have spoken with an attorney.
If you choose to get help from Ward Law, we will contact the insurance companies. This includes preparing legal documentation of your injuries and any damage to your motorcycle. We also make sure insurance companies don't deny your claim or try to offer you less money than you deserve. (In legal terms, this is known as a bad-faith gesture by the insurance company.)
