Motorcycle riders face unique risks every time they get on the road. Even the most careful motorcyclist is vulnerable to distracted drivers, unsafe roads, and careless motorists who fail to share the road responsibly. When a crash happens, the injuries are often severe — and the fight for fair compensation is even tougher.
At Wolfe Trial Lawyers, we know the challenges injured riders face. Attorney Brandon Wolfe has built his career standing up for people who’ve been wronged by powerful insurance companies and corporations. Our firm fights to make sure injured riders are treated with respect, not blame, and that they receive the compensation they deserve for their medical care, lost income, and pain.
Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents
Motorcycle crashes are often caused by negligence — and too often, it’s not the rider’s fault. Wolfe Trial Lawyers investigates the true cause of your crash and holds every responsible party accountable. Common causes include:
- Drivers failing to yield the right of way
- Distracted driving, including texting or phone use
- Unsafe lane changes or tailgating
- Speeding or reckless driving
- Impaired driving due to alcohol or drugs
- Hazardous road conditions or poor maintenance
- Defective parts or equipment
Every case we take on is backed by a thorough investigation. We gather witness statements, analyze crash reports, review traffic camera footage, and work with accident reconstruction experts to build a strong claim for our clients.
Serious Injuries Caused by Motorcycle Crashes
Because motorcycles offer little physical protection, riders often suffer catastrophic injuries when accidents occur. These injuries can lead to long-term medical needs, chronic pain, or permanent disability. Common motorcycle accident injuries include:
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
- Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
- Severe road rash and burns
- Fractures and broken bones
- Internal organ damage or bleeding
- Amputations or disfigurement
The road to recovery can be long and expensive. Wolfe Trial Lawyers works tirelessly to ensure that your settlement or verdict covers the full scope of your losses — not just what the insurance company wants to pay.
Fighting Back Against Insurance Companies
After a motorcycle crash, many insurance companies try to shift blame onto the rider — using stereotypes to argue that motorcyclists are “risk-takers.” We don’t let that stand. Wolfe Trial Lawyers pushes back against these unfair tactics with facts, evidence, and experience.
Our firm has one mission: to level the playing field. We handle all communication and negotiation with insurers so you can focus on your recovery. And if they refuse to offer what’s fair, we’re fully prepared to take your case to trial.
What Compensation Can You Recover?
Victims of motorcycle accidents may be entitled to compensation for both economic and non-economic damages, including:
- Medical bills and future healthcare costs
- Rehabilitation and therapy expenses
- Lost wages and loss of earning potential
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
- Property damage to your motorcycle
- Wrongful death damages for grieving families
We partner with medical professionals, life-care planners, and economists to calculate the true cost of your injury and fight for every dollar you deserve.
