Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcyclists are some of the most vulnerable drivers on the road. Without the protective shell of a car, even minor collisions can result in severe injuries or fatalities. At Novo Law, we understand the complex dynamics of motorcycle accident claims and fight aggressively to get injured riders the justice and compensation they deserve.
Whether it’s a negligent driver, road hazard, or a vehicle defect, we handle every aspect of your case so you can focus entirely on your recovery. We’ll investigate, document, negotiate, and, if needed, litigate to ensure your rights as a rider are protected.

What is a Motorcycle Accident?

A motorcycle accident occurs when a motorcycle is involved in a crash with another vehicle, object, or pedestrian—often due to the negligence of another driver or unsafe road conditions. These incidents typically result in severe trauma given the limited protection available to riders.
Because of high speeds, visibility issues, and common misconceptions about bikers, these cases require experienced legal handling. Our team focuses on determining fault and highlighting the unique risks faced by motorcyclists in every claim.

Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents

Left-Hand Turns by Cars
One of the most dangerous scenarios—cars turning left often fail to see approaching motorcycles or misjudge their speed.
Lane Changes Without Checking Blind Spots
Drivers frequently overlook motorcycles in blind spots, causing sideswipe or merging collisions.
Speeding and Reckless Driving
Excessive speed reduces reaction time and increases the force of impact, making crashes more fatal for bikers.
Distracted or Impaired Driving
Drivers texting or under the influence may not see motorcyclists at all until it’s too late.
Poor Road Conditions
Potholes, loose gravel, or sudden changes in road texture can cause loss of control for motorcycles.
Defective Motorcycle Parts
Faulty brakes, tire blowouts, or steering issues can cause unexpected crashes even when the rider is cautious.

Can I recover damages if I wasn’t wearing a helmet?

This is a common excuse. It doesn’t excuse negligence—we pursue evidence to prove liability.
In many states, yes. Your compensation may be adjusted but you can still recover damages.
Typically 1–3 years depending on your state. Don’t delay—key evidence can disappear.
