Motorcycle accident claims are not the same as standard auto accident cases. These collisions tend to involve more severe injuries, more complex liability disputes, and a deeper level of bias from insurance carriers.
Here's what sets motorcycle cases apart:
| Key Legal Challenges | Why They Matter |
|---|---|
| Increased Injury Severity | Without the protection of a car frame, motorcyclists often suffer traumatic injuries even in low-speed crashes. |
| Visibility Defense | Drivers often claim they "didn’t see the motorcycle," attempting to avoid liability. |
| Bias Against Motorcyclists | Insurance adjusters often portray riders as reckless, reducing settlement offers or denying claims. |
| Helmet Law Misunderstandings | Arizona law allows adults 18+ to ride without helmets, but insurers may still attempt to argue comparative negligence. |
An experienced motorcycle accident attorney can anticipate these tactics, gather proper evidence, and challenge every attempt to minimize your claim.

Protecting your rights begins in the moments after a crash. If you're able, take the following steps:
Even if you've already begun the claims process, it’s not too late to get legal help. We can step in at any point and take over communications with insurers.
Arizona follows a pure comparative negligence system. This means you can recover damages even if you were partially at fault. However, your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of responsibility.
For example, if you're awarded $100,000 but found 20% at fault, you would still receive $80,000. This is why having a legal team that can reduce or eliminate your share of liability is critical.
Under Arizona law, the statute of limitations for filing a personal injury claim is two years from the date of the accident. If this deadline passes, your claim may be barred, and you may lose your right to compensation.
Arizona law does not require riders over 18 to wear a helmet. While insurers may try to use this against you, it doesn’t automatically reduce your compensation especially if your injuries weren’t head-related.
There are no upfront costs. We work on a contingency fee basis, meaning we only get paid if we win your case.
