Why You Need a Motorcycle Accident Lawyer
Motorcycle accidents are uniquely complex. From insurance negotiations to proving fault, the challenges riders face after a crash differ from those in typical car accidents. Motorcyclists are also far more vulnerable on the road—in fact, they’re 28 times more likely to die in a crash than occupants of passenger vehicles and 4 times more likely to be injured.
A motorcycle accident lawyer can help you:
- Understand your rights and options.
- Investigate the crash and determine who’s at fault.
- Handle insurance adjusters and paperwork.
- Maximize the compensation you may be entitled to.
At Rob Levine Law, we know the stakes are high. Our team has recovered over $2 billion in injury compensation and disability benefits, and we’re ready to fight for every dollar you deserve.

for a client who was riding his motorcycle from Middletown to Newport. As he navigated the rotary, a car failed to yield to him, knocking him off his motorcycle and causing a fractured ankle. The settlement covered the client’s medical expenses and damages resulting from the accident.
Common Motorcycle Accident Injuries
Motorcycle riders have little protection in crashes, so injuries are often severe and life-changing. Common motorcycle injuries can include:
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Spinal cord damage
- Fractures and road rash
- Internal organ injuries
- Amputations
These injuries can require long-term care, lost wages, and impact your entire way of life. That’s why working with an experienced motorcycle injury lawyer is critical to securing the compensation you need for recovery.
What to Do After a Motorcycle Accident
If you’ve been injured in a motorcycle accident, your actions in the minutes, hours, and days that follow can directly impact your ability to recover damages. Here’s what to do after a motorcycle accident:
- Seek medical attention immediately — even if injuries seem minor.
- Report the accident to the police.
- Gather evidence if possible: photos, witness information, and vehicle details.
- Contact Rob Levine Law as soon as you can.
We’ll take it from there. Our team will handle the insurance companies, paperwork, and negotiations so you can focus on healing. Our guide explains the different types of motorcycle accident cases to help you understand the factors that lead to motorcycle accidents.
Who’s At Fault in a Motorcycle Accident?
The fault in a motorcycle crash isn’t always straightforward. Our team can help determine who’s responsible — whether it’s another driver, a commercial vehicle operator, a government agency responsible for road maintenance, or even a motorcycle manufacturer. We thoroughly investigate the facts to hold the right party accountable.
What Compensation Can Be Recovered?

FAQs About Motorcycle Accident Claims
What if I wasn’t wearing a helmet during the accident — can I still file a claim?
Yes, you can still file a claim even if you weren’t wearing a helmet. However, your compensation may be reduced depending on your state’s helmet laws and whether your lack of a helmet contributed to your injuries.
How is motorcycle accident compensation different from car accident compensation?
Can I sue if a pothole or poor road condition caused my motorcycle accident?
Should I talk to the other driver’s insurance company after the crash?
It’s best to avoid speaking with the other driver’s insurance adjuster without legal representation. They may try to minimize your injuries or get you to admit fault—something your attorney can help prevent.
Can I include custom parts or gear in my property damage claim?
Yes, if your motorcycle had custom upgrades, aftermarket parts, or protective gear that was damaged in the crash, their value can be included in your property damage claim. Be sure to document and retain receipts if possible.
