Motorcycles are loud to alert drivers to their presence, but sometimes even that isn’t enough. Drivers often don’t see motorcycle riders, crash into them, and cause serious injury.
Drivers often change lanes without looking, which is always dangerous but especially so for individuals on a motorcycle.
If a driver is under the influence of drugs or alcohol and causes an accident, they are likely going to be held liable for that accident regardless of other details.
By the time people reach adulthood, they’ve likely filed an insurance claim for a car accident before. When there’s only property damage, that’s a pretty smooth and seamless process.

Our average case can take anywhere from 6 to 18 months, but it’s not unheard of for ones to settle more quickly. Some cases, especially ones that go to court, may take a few years to fully resolve.
