Motorcycle Accident Lawyers Serving Injured Bikers in Bergen County

We know motorcycle collisions are devastating and, very often, life-changing.

If you or a loved one was hurt in a motorcycle crash, our Bergen County, New Jersey personal injury lawyers are here to help.

Causes of Motorcycle Crashes

Motorcycle collisions can happen for a variety of reasons, including the following:

• Inclement weather conditions (e.g. heavy rain or winds)
• Unsafe road conditions (e.g. potholes, wet leaves on the road, negligent signage)
• Defective motorcycle parts (e.g. malfunctioning brakes, defective tires, etc.)
• Driver negligence (driving while intoxicated, tailing bikers too slowly, opening car doors without looking both ways, unsafe lane changes, etc.)

These are just some of the most common causes of motorcycle crashes. If you, as a biker, were hurt due to no fault of your own, there’s a strong chance you’ll qualify for financial compensation.

Compensation

As long as we win your personal injury claim, there are two things you should be compensated for: economic damages and non-economic damages. Economic damages include things like medical bills and lost wages, while non-economic damages include things such as emotional anguish, disfigurement, pain and suffering, and a lower standard of life caused by your injuries. Ensure you file your claim within the state’s statute of limitations, which is, typically, two years. Waiting longer than two years will likely result in you losing your right to sue.
