Motorcycle Accident Injuries

Motorcyclists face more risks than other drivers on the road. They don’t have the protection a car offers — the airbags and seatbelts that keep other drivers safe. Because motorcyclists don’t have these protections, it is common for them to suffer serious personal injury and wrongful deaths in accidents.

If your life has been changed by a motorcycle accident, the Kansas City motorcycle accident attorneys at Carter Law Offices can help you seek full and fair compensation for your injuries. Our Kansas City, Missouri, law firm is dedicated to helping motorcycle accident victims hold negligent drivers accountable for the harm they cause.

There are many ways that negligent drivers cause motorcycle accidents:

  • Changing lanes without signaling
  • Running stop signs and stoplights
  • Failing to keep proper lookout for motorcyclists
  • Making wide-angle turns
  • Driving under the influence
  • Falling asleep at the wheel
  • Not giving motorcyclists proper room/lane crowding

Our Legal Team

Our legal team includes a trial lawyer with decades of experience, a registered nurse and a doctor of chiropractic. Our combined legal and medical knowledge helps us get the best possible results for our clients. We have achieved a record of favorable settlements and jury verdicts in motor vehicle accident cases and have recovered compensation for property damage, unpaid medical bills, physical and emotional pain suffered by our clients.

Trial Preparation

We continue to pursue the maximum compensation for our clients by thoroughly and completely preparing for trial. When we take a motorcycle crash case, we conduct a complete investigation of all the facts and laws that may affect the outcome.

We examine the road conditions at the scene of the accident. Working with accident reconstructionists, skid mark analysts, and other crash experts, our attorneys are very effective in using the evidence from an accident scene to recreate what happened and expose driver negligence. We also talk to eyewitnesses and use computer animation and simulation to explain to jurors what a car or truck driver did wrong to cause the accident that injured our client.

Contact Us

If you’ve been injured in a motorcycle accident, our law firm can help you get the compensation you deserve. To schedule a one-on-one consultation with one of our attorneys, contact us online or call 816-283-3500. Your first consultation is, of course, free.
