Representing Injured Motorcyclists and Passengers
Motorcycle riders love their bikes for various reasons: the thrill of the road, breathing the open air, or fuel efficiency. The downside of these simple pleasures and practicalities is the risks that motorcyclists face by sharing the road with drivers who don't see or account for them.
Motorcycles have a right to the road, and the law does not say that you get less recovery because you were on a cycle. The personal injury lawyers of Kolker & Germeroth, L.L.C., represent people injured in motorcycle crashes, in the St. Louis area and statewide Missouri.
If you or a loved one was seriously injured, contact us today for a free consultation. We handle all motorcycle accidents, from street bikes and road touring bikes to mopeds and scooters. We also handle wrongful death lawsuits in fatal motorcycle accidents.
What Caused Your Accident?
Our attorneys will work diligently to determine who was responsible for your injuries. Although every case is different, many accidents are caused by one of the following factors:
- Left turn accidents
- Lane changes
- Pulling out into traffic
- Speeding or following too close
- Careless or distracted driving
- Drunk driving
- Drivers who fail to see a motorcycle
- Dangerous road conditions
- Motorcycle defects ( product liability)
A thorough investigation is the cornerstone of any sound motorcycle accident case. If necessary, we will retain the services of accident reconstructionists and medical experts to supplement our case. We will stop at nothing to uncover the cause of your motorcycle accident, and our skilled trial lawyers will counter any efforts to blame you for the crash or reduce your compensation via comparative negligence.
We are also familiar with the severe injuries in motorcycle cases, from spinal cord injuries to road rash. We make sure that compensation covers ongoing medical care and future lost wages, as well as compensation for disability, disfigurement, and pain and suffering.
