Houston motorcycle accident lawyer.

Insurance companies lean on motorcycle bias — they assume juries blame the rider. We counter with reconstruction, helmet forensics, and trial experience that makes insurers pay fair value.

Quick answer: Texas law does not treat motorcyclists differently than drivers — they have the same right to the road and the same right to compensation when another driver causes a crash. Helmet use in Texas is required for riders under 21 and affects certain damage categories, but does not bar recovery.

Injuries we see in motorcycle accident cases

  • Road rash and disfigurement
  • Traumatic brain injury (even with helmet)
  • Broken bones in extremities
  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Internal bleeding
  • Fatalities

Compensation available under Texas law

  • Medical treatment and rehabilitation
  • Bike repair or total-loss value
  • Lost wages and future earnings
  • Pain, suffering, and emotional distress
  • Scarring and disfigurement damages
  • Wrongful death for surviving family
How we work

Our process on a motorcycle accident case.

01

Scene documentation

Motorcycle crashes often have limited witnesses. We canvass for surveillance, pull 911 audio, and investigate road conditions immediately.

02

Countering bias

We prepare every case assuming the jury will be skeptical of riders. Reconstruction, helmet evidence, and rider safety history all become part of the story.

03

Medical specialist referrals

Road rash, TBI, and fracture care can compound fast. We coordinate specialists who understand motorcycle-specific injuries.

04

Insurance fight

Insurers lowball riders more than any other victim type. We do not accept first offers.

Frequently asked

Questions people ask about motorcycle accident cases.

Does not wearing a helmet hurt my Texas motorcycle case?

It can reduce recovery for head injuries if you were legally required to wear one, but it does not bar your claim. Non-head injuries are unaffected.

What if the driver says they didn't see me?

'I didn't see the motorcycle' is the single most common statement in these crashes — and it's not a defense. Drivers are required to look.
