Motorcycle Accidents
Los Angeles Motorcycle Accident Lawyers – Standing Up for Riders’ Rights
Motorcyclists are some of the most vulnerable drivers on California’s roads. Even when following every law and safety precaution, riders face constant risks from distracted drivers, unsafe road conditions, and motorists who simply fail to look out for motorcycles. When an accident happens, the injuries are often catastrophic. At Lahmani Law, we stand with injured riders and their families, fighting for justice and the financial recovery they need to heal and move forward.
Why Motorcycle Accidents Are So Dangerous
Unlike cars and trucks, motorcycles offer no structural protection. Riders are exposed to the full force of a crash, which makes accidents significantly more dangerous. According to California traffic safety reports, motorcyclists are nearly 28 times more likely to die in a crash compared to occupants of passenger vehicles.
Some of the unique risks riders face include:
-
Drivers failing to check blind spots or signal lane changes
-
Unsafe left-hand turns in front of oncoming motorcycles
-
Distracted drivers texting or using navigation apps
-
Road hazards like potholes, loose gravel, or slick pavement
-
Speeding or aggressive drivers who do not respect motorcycles’ right of way
Even at relatively low speeds, these scenarios can lead to devastating injuries.
Common Motorcycle Accident Injuries
Because of the lack of protection, motorcycle accident injuries are often severe and life-altering. Common injuries include:
-
Road rash and burns from sliding across pavement
-
Broken bones and fractures, especially in the legs and arms
-
Spinal cord injuries, sometimes resulting in paralysis
-
Traumatic brain injuries (TBI), even with helmet use
-
Internal organ damage
-
Amputations or permanent disfigurement
These injuries frequently require long-term medical treatment, rehabilitation, and may permanently change a victim’s lifestyle or ability to work.
What Compensation Can Motorcycle Accident Victims Recover?
When someone else’s negligence causes a crash, victims may be entitled to recover compensation for:
-
Medical bills (emergency care, surgeries, ongoing treatment)
-
Lost wages and loss of future earning potential
-
Pain and suffering (physical and emotional toll)
-
Rehabilitation and therapy costs
-
Property damage to the motorcycle
-
Wrongful death damages for families who lose loved ones
Insurance companies often stereotype motorcyclists as reckless, which they use to try to reduce or deny claims. At Lahmani Law, we challenge those assumptions head-on and fight for fair compensation.
