Riding a motorcycle in Irving, Texas, can come with freedom and risk. After an accident, you have the same rights as other motorists to pursue compensation against a negligent driver.

Don’t worry if you don’t know what treatments you may need later on—we can evaluate how your injuries will affect you in the future and calculate accordingly.
Whether in the short-term or long-term, motorcycle accident injuries could affect when you can work, how you can do your job, and even how you feel about yourself. These types of compensation can therefore be a part of your case value:

The risk of a devastating accident can be very high for motorcyclists, as a motorcycle design exposes a rider. These accidents also have a high risk of fatality.
Injuries caused by a negligent driver can be grounds for a claim or lawsuit. Injuries especially common in motorcycle accidents include lower-extremity injuries, while head injuries are a common cause of fatal accidents.
Other common conditions sustained by motorcyclists for which you may be eligible for compensation include:
Even if you suffered supposedly minor injuries–such as bruises and lacerations–you may still suffer from secondary conditions as a result, such as infection, scarring, or internal bleeding. Regardless, if someone else caused you pain, you may be able to hold them liable.
Taking up more space on the road does not entitle larger vehicles to more rights. In fact, they have their own obligation to avoid harming others, including motorcyclists. When they do not uphold that obligation, they may be considered negligent—and negligence is the basis for a personal injury case.
Motorcycle accidents can be caused by any driver’s inattention or poor decisions. Some common examples of negligent driving are:
Notice that some of these are not necessarily illegal actions. For instance, a car driver can think they are leaving enough space when following a motorcycle, only to rear-end the motorcyclist after a sudden stop. Even without a traffic citation, that driver can still be held responsible for their poor decision if it caused injuries. Your personal injury case relies on negligence, not criminality.
Negligence refers not only to behavior on the road but also to human errors in the creation of the vehicle itself. The culprit in your accident may have been a defective part.
You could hold certain parties responsible for:
Determining who to hold accountable is our job. One of our Irving motorcycle accident lawyers can work to pinpoint where in the supply chain the mistake may have been made.
You must file your personal injury suit within the statute of limitations. That is the time limit you have to hold the responsible party liable for your injuries and expenses. The window to file is two years, dating from the time the injury or death occurred, according to Texas Civil Practice & Remedies Code §16.003. This allows you time to recover and allows us time to understand your expenses, which can help us value your case.
We want you or your loved one to concentrate on healing. We will take care of filing your civil lawsuit within the statute of limitations that applies to your case.
