Motorcycle Accident

 

As a fellow motorcycle rider, I know what it’s like not knowing who will or won’t pull out in front of you. The Midwest is a beautiful place to ride a motorcycle.  The Tri-State boasts some of the best scenery around. Indiana is the in the heart of America, but that beauty makes it populated and dangerous. As an Evansville motorcycle accident lawyer, I’ve handled countless claims for motorcycle riders. Whether we are protecting a rider’s rights through aggressive representation, helping someone get back on a bike after a wreck, or assisting a rider in navigating the legal system, I am committed to nothing less than competent representation of bikers from all walks of life. Contact us for a free consultation or stop by our office. We’re ready to help.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to have motorcycle insurance to recover?

No, recovery is possible even if you didn’t have motorcycle insurance at the time of the accident. The at-fault party who caused the accident may have insurance coverage to compensate you. It is not a requirement to have motorcycle insurance to recover for your injuries.

What damages could I recover?

When you’re hurt, you can seek both special and general damages. Special damages are things like medical bills and lost wages. General damages however, cover things like your pain and suffering or emotional damage. Both can be sought on your behalf.

How can a lawyer help?

Motorcycles aren’t as protected as cars or trucks. It’s possible you’re dealing with severe injuries, and now you’ll need someone who knows the law to help. We take the pressure off of you so you can focus on healing. That’s how our attorney will make it easy for you.

Does it matter whether I was wearing a helmet?

No. Motorcyclists in the State of Indiana are not required to wear helmets. Motorcycle crash victims have a right to pursue claims against at-fault drivers for injuries they’ve sustained in an accident, helmet or no helmet.

What if the other driver was uninsured?

Unfortunately, not everyone has insurance. When our client is injured in an Evansville motorcycle accident that is not their fault, and the person doesn’t have insurance, we must look to our client’s own insurance policy. Many people have uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage. We will look at your policy to determine if there are protections in place to help you recover.
