Las Vegas Fatal Motorcycle Accident Lawyers

Las Vegas Motorcycle Accident Law Firm

In Nevada, there is no law requiring motorcyclists to wear helmets. Although many believe that wearing helmets is a common sense practice that will prevent or lessen injuries, even helmets are not guaranteed to keep a biker safe in the event of a serious crash.

Survival and Challenge

When bikers survive crashes, they are often left with serious to catastrophic injuries, ranging from road rash and broken bones to spinal cord injury and traumatic brain injury (TBI). The losses, both financial and personal, are tremendous for a motorcycle accident victim and close family members who are also affected.

Loss of Life Affects a Family

Many bikers pay the ultimate price of a motorcycle accident: loss of life. The death of a motorcycle rider usually leaves a family bereft: parents, wife, husband or children grieve the loss. When the motorcyclist was a breadwinner for a family, survivors face serious challenges.

If you were seriously injured or if your close family member died in a motorcycle crash in Nevada, Harris & Harris Lawyers strongly encourages you to contact a lawyer. An attorney on your side will work to protect your rights, overcome bias against motorcycling and advocate for the compensation that you need and deserve from any and all sources:

  • Another motorist who was negligent
  • The manufacturer of your bike, if it is found to be defective — or any shop or mechanic who serviced it improperly
  • Your own insurance company — or insurance of people who live in your household
