Do I Need a Mobile Motorcycle Accident Lawyer?
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), 6,335 motorcyclists were killed in 2023. That accounts for about 15% of all U.S. traffic deaths. These alarming statistics don’t even include the tens of thousands of riders who were severely injured by aggressive, distracted, and reckless motorists.
Motorcycle crash claims in Alabama are uniquely challenging because the state is one of the few that follows a pure contributory negligence rule. If it can be proven that you were even 1% at fault for the accident, you could be barred from seeking any compensation whatsoever.
The defendant and their insurance company will do everything in their power to undermine your claim and protect their respective interests. For this reason, and many others, an experienced legal team is a necessity.

- Immediate investigation and scene preservation

How Long Do I Have To Seek Compensation for My Injuries?
In Alabama, you generally have 2 years to file a personal injury lawsuit. For wrongful death, the action must be filed within 2 years of the date of death. Shorter notice deadlines apply to many claims against government entities. Acting promptly ensures that you don’t miss the deadline, or statute of limitations, and forfeit your right to pursue compensation for your losses.
We understand how difficult it is to think about deadlines when you are healing or grieving a devastating loss. You don’t have to shoulder the pressure alone. Our team of motorcycle accident attorneys can move quickly and respectfully to protect your rights while you focus on healing.
Causes & Determining Fault After a Motorcycle Collision
Motorcycle riders face countless dangers every time they cruise the roads and highways of Alabama. Unfortunately, the average motorist tends to get extremely anxious when a motorcycle enters their field of vision. A negligent driver may even adopt aggressive and careless behaviors to intimidate or avoid a nearby biker, inadvertently causing the very collision they fear.
Distraction is another danger. A driver glances at their phone or turns to a passenger and fails to realize that a motorcycle is in their direct vicinity. Sure, it may seem like only a few seconds of distraction, but this is just long enough to jeopardize the lives of everyone on the road—especially motorcyclists who lack the protection of a vehicle frame or airbags.
Common causes of motorcycle accidents that we see:
- Failure to yield
- Unsafe lane changes
- Tailgating
- Speeding
- Driving under the influence
- Dooring
- Distracted driving
- Unsafe passing
- Road defects or debris
- Work‑zone hazards
Our motorcycle accident lawyers in Mobile, Alabama, can investigate your case, identify the negligent party, and compile evidence that proves the at-fault party is responsible for your injuries and resulting financial losses.
What Should I Do If I’m Injured in a Motorcycle Crash?
After a motorcycle accident, these are the important steps that help to protect your health and your claim:
- Get to Safety & Call 911: Your safety and the safety of those involved are the priority. Everything else can wait.
- Seek Medical Care Promptly: Motorcycle accidents typically involve serious injuries. Do not wait to get care. However, some injuries may emerge hours or days later. Even if you initially feel fine, see a medical provider as soon as possible to make sure.
- Document the Scene: Take photos or video of vehicles, damage, skid marks, signs, road conditions, and your riding gear.
- Collect Details: Names, phone numbers, emails, insurance information, plate numbers; note any employer if a commercial vehicle is involved, and write down the law enforcement agency on the scene and the report number.
- Look for Witnesses & Cameras: Ask for witness contact info and note nearby homes or businesses with security cameras.
- Preserve Your Bike & Gear: Keep the motorcycle, helmet, and clothing as‑is. Don’t repair, wash, or throw anything away until we advise you.
- Contact Us ASAP: Call our Mobile motorcycle accident lawyers as soon as you can. We’ll handle insurer contact and outline the next steps. Consultations are FREE!
If injuries or circumstances kept you from taking any of these steps, don’t worry. Our motorcycle crash attorneys can help fill the gaps. Our focus is on protecting your claim while you focus on getting better.
What Not To Do After a Motorcycle Accident
- DON’T admit fault or speculate about speed, distance, or cause.
- DON’T post about the crash on social media.
- DON’T give a recorded statement to an insurer without counsel.
- DON’T miss follow‑up medical appointments. Gaps in care can hurt your claim!
- DON’T repair or dispose of your bike/gear before it’s inspected.
Will My Case Go to Court?
The vast majority of claims settle, especially if liability is clear and damages are well‑documented. However, we prepare every case for trial from day one. We might recommend filing a lawsuit if:
- The insurer disputes fault or tries to unfairly manipulate the contributory negligence rule
- Their offers undervalue your future medical needs, earning capacity, or permanent impairment
- Additional evidence or expert testimony (e.g., crash reconstructionists, medical specialists) is needed to resolve disputes and secure a fair outcome
If a lawsuit is filed, we will guide you through each step of the process. Our readiness to try cases often leads to better settlement offers.
Common Injuries After a Motorcycle Crash
Because motorcycle riders don’t have the protection of a vehicle frame or airbags, crashes can lead to serious trauma. Common motorcycle accident injuries include:
- Head injuries
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Paralysis
- Spinal injuries
- Nerve damage
- Skull fractures
- Broken bones
- Neck injuries
- Disfigurement
- Road rash
- Soft-tissue injuries
- Internal organ damage
- Psychological trauma
A serious motorcycle accident can result in catastrophic injuries that necessitate expensive surgical procedures, ongoing medical treatments, and lifelong rehabilitative services.
Compensation for Motorcycle Accident Injuries
Many motorcycle accident victims struggle to afford the overwhelming scope of their injury-related expenses. In the worst-case scenario, they may even need to file for bankruptcy to mitigate their debts and maintain their standard of living.
At Morris, Andrews, Talmadge & Driggers, LLC, we don’t believe that an innocent victim should bear the financial burden of an accident. For this reason, we aren’t afraid to negotiate with insurance companies and corporate legal teams if it means securing a substantial settlement or verdict on your behalf.
Our trial-tested attorneys can investigate the accident, calculate your projected injury-related expenses, and develop a strategy that aims to maximize your claim.
By filing a motorcycle injury claim, you may be able to recover the following monetary damages:
- Past & future medical expenses
- Lost wages
- Loss of earning potential
- Property damage
- Pain & suffering
- Loss of enjoyment of life
In Alabama, a wrongful death claim can only seek punitive damages. These are intended to hold a wrongdoer accountable and deter similar conduct. We know no amount of money can make up for your loss. This process is about accountability and helping protect your family’s future.
You can rely on Morris, Andrews, Talmadge & Driggers, LLC to represent the best interests of you and your family as we guide you through each phase of this challenging legal process. Our distinguished Mobile motorcycle injury attorneys would be honored to fight for just compensation in your case.
