Las Vegas Motorcycle Accident Lawyers

Nevada Bike Injury Attorney

Motorcycle accidents differ from accidents involving cars in several key ways:

  • Motorcycle accident injuries are more often severe. The motorcyclist is often thrown into the air, pinned by the motorcycle or crushed between the car and cycle. With or without a helmet, head injuries and neck injuries are common. Other common motorcycle crash injuries include broken bones, road rash (scraped skin), and back and spinal cord injuries.
  • Insurance may be inadequate to cover the injured person's financial losses because of the seriousness of injuries.
  • Motorcyclists are very often blamed for accidents they did not cause. A failure to see motorcyclists is not an excuse, even though many vehicle drivers seem to think it is. Plus, a good many police officers, motorists, insurance claims adjusters, judges and juries are biased against motorcyclists. "Riding a motorcycle means accepting known risks," they may say, especially if the biker who suffered head trauma wasn't wearing a helmet (learn more about Nevada helmet law here).

Combating this bias is an important part of the job for a Las Vegas motorcycle accident lawyer at Harris & Harris Lawyers. Investigating the cause of a motorcycle accident and determining fault are other key tasks. We have extensive experience and work with investigative experts to build a strong and effective case. We represent injured motorcyclists and family members of fatal motorcycle accident victims.
