Garland Motorcycle Accident Lawyer

Garland Motorcycle Accidents

When you have been catastrophically injured in a bike wreck and are interested in learning more about how to hold the liable party accountable, contact a respected motorcycle accident in Garland.

It is not uncommon for motorcyclists to endure injuries far more severe than that of any other type of motor vehicle accident. There are a number of factors that can influence the impact of a motorcycle wreck, but without the surrounding protection that cars, trucks, SUVs, and other vehicles have, the damage can be traumatizing. 

If someone else is to blame for causing your bike crash, you could bring them to justice by pursuing a civil claim with the help of a knowledgeable Garland motorcycle accident lawyer at Crain Brogdon, LLP.

With our firm by your side, you’ll have a team of highly trained attorneys working for you to determine who is at fault for causing the accident and what your claim is worth so you can get the most out of your lawsuit. 

Bike Crash Claims Process

Once you have made the decision to move forward with your motorcycle accident claim, our first step will be to investigate the crash. This will consist of us gathering evidence and reviewing the details of the case to figure out who is to blame for causing the accident. Some parties who may have played a part in the cause of your collision include the following: 

• Your passenger
• The driver who struck you
• Parts manufacturers
• The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT)
• Automakers
• Technicians

After we have established liability, we will move on to the calculation of the value of your claim. This will be done by going over all of the ways your life has been negatively impacted by the accident you were involved in so that every single loss is accounted for. This will open up the possibility of being awarded maximum compensation for all you’ve been through. 

From there, we head to negotiations with the insurance company first, and if that is unsuccessful, or if the settlement offered isn’t enough to cover the full extent of your damages, then we will proceed to court.

Texas Helmet Laws and the Impact on Your Claim

The state of Texas does not require all motorcyclists to wear a helmet, and as long as you have health insurance, are over the age of 21, and have completed a motorcycle safety course, you are under no legal obligation to wear a helmet when riding your bike.

However, if you made the decision to operate your motorcycle without a helmet, and you suffer injuries related to this choice, it is possible that any award you would have been issued will be reduced by your portion of fault. This is known as modified comparative negligence, or shared fault.
