Columbus Motorcycle Accident Attorneys

Put Decades of Experience in Your Corner

When drivers fail to watch out for motorcyclists, the results are often devastating. Even low-speed motorcycle crashes can lead to life-altering injuries. To make matters worse, insurance companies and defense attorneys look to blame motorcyclists for their own injuries and those of their passengers by playing on stereotypes and accusing motorcyclists of unsafe driving practices. They may also seek to diminish driver responsibility by blaming head and neck injuries on the motorcyclist’s lack of protective gear.

An experienced motorcycle injury attorney is well-acquainted with defense and insurer tactics used in motorcycle injury cases and will help you navigate the many pitfalls associated with your injury case. Aspects of your motorcycle accident case are time-sensitive, and receiving sound legal guidance sooner rather than later will serve to protect your rights and interests through this complex, unfamiliar, and often unforgiving process.
