Kansas City Motorcycle Accident Attorney

Trusted Legal Guidance After A Devastating Motorcycle Accident

Motorcycle accidents frequently lead to life-altering injuries or fatalities. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimates that 88,000 bikers nationwide were injured in 2015 alone.

In the vast majority of these accidents, it’s other drivers who are at fault, according to a 2013 study at the University of South Florida’s Center for Urban Transportation Research. Despite efforts to encourage drivers to “start seeing motorcycles,” serious accidents still occur with devastating frequency. Far too often, drivers:

• Fail to notice motorcyclists
• Make left turns directly in front of motorcycles
• Change lanes without looking, resulting in collisions
• Collide with motorcycles at intersections
• Engage in texting while driving or other distractions
• Get behind the wheel after one too many drinks

When you — or a loved one — becomes the victim of negligence, you shouldn’t have to bear the financial burden. You deserve accountability and compensation for the tragic harms you have suffered.

Has your loved one suffered a life-altering brain injury?

Head injuries account for nearly a quarter of motorcycle accident injuries, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Of all bikers admitted to hospitals who don’t survive, more than 50 percent suffered from traumatic brain injuries. Helmets reduce — but don’t eliminate — the risk of head injuries. We’re familiar with the physical, emotional and legal ramifications of brain injuries.
