FAQs About Motorcycle Accidents

How soon should I contact a lawyer after a motorcycle accident?

Contact a lawyer as soon as possible. Early legal guidance protects your rights, ensures evidence is preserved, and keeps your claim on track with important California deadlines.

What should I bring to my first meeting?

Gather all police reports, medical records, photos, and any messages from insurance companies. These documents help the attorney understand your circumstances and provide effective advice.

Who could be responsible for a motorcycle accident?

Another driver, road maintenance crews, or even vehicle manufacturers may be at fault—depending on what caused the crash. California’s comparative fault law may divide damages among multiple parties involved.

Does California law treat motorcycle accidents differently from other vehicle accidents?

California law protects motorcyclists’ rights, but motorcycle accident claims often include unique factors—such as helmet use, lane sharing, and issues with visibility. These special considerations may change the evidence or arguments involved.

What if I were partially at fault for the accident?

You may still seek compensation even if you share responsibility. California law reduces your possible compensation by your percentage of fault, but does not bar recovery when fault is shared.
