    Motorcycle Accident Claims

    Many insurance companies will deny the claims of motorcycle riders off-the-bat on the basis that the motorcyclist was responsible for the accident. In these situations, a skilled attorney can advocate on your behalf and gather evidence to support your claim for compensation.

    We do not leave your claim to chance. The second we are brought into a case, our attorneys get to work gathering the evidence we need to prove every aspect of your claim.

    LANE-SPLITTING IN CALIFORNIA

    Lane-splitting (the practice of passing cars in the space between lanes) is legal in California. Therefore, it is the responsibility of the driver to make sure that a motorcyclist is not approaching before making a lane change.

    • Always check mirrors before changing lanes
    • Always turn to check your blind-spot before changing lanes
    • Always signal prior to changing lanes

    PURE COMPARATIVE FAULT JURISDICTION

    Unlike most states, California is 100% pure comparative fault jurisdiction. This means that an injured person can recover compensation for their injuries even if they are determined to be 99% at-fault for the accident.

    • Most motorcycle accidents involve comparative fault
    • All lane-splitting accidents involve comparative fault
    • You are still entitled to compensation for your injuries even if you were partially at fault for the accident
