Motorcycle Accident Lawyers
Motorcycle accident victims may require a different type of
legal assistance than the victims of other types of car
accidents. Unlike car accident victims, motorcycle riders cannot
get Medical Pay Benefits from their own insurance companies to
help pay medical bills after a motorcycle crash.
From a practical perspective, this means that motorcycle
accident victims must seek financial compensation from other
sources after a serious motorcycle accident. Crash victims
deserve knowledgeable and aggressive legal help to get full and
fair compensation after serious accidents.
For more than 60 years,
the Knox Law Center has represented motorcycle accident
victims in both North and South Carolina. We have offices in
Charlotte and Denver, and our attorneys have a long
record of success recovering substantial financial
settlements for personal injury clients.

Financial Help After a Motorcycle Accident
Motorcycle accident victims often have a more difficult time
getting financial help after a serious injury. North Carolina's
accident laws state that if the injured person's own actions
helped cause the accident, then he or she is not entitled to
any financial reimbursement. Secondly, as stated above,
motorcycle accident victims cannot seek compensation from their
own insurance companies via MedPay benefits.
Instead, your lawyer will help you seek other sources of
financial assistance:
- If the accident was caused by the reckless or careless
actions of another person, your lawyer will fight for a
settlement from that driver's insurance company.
- If the at-fault driver does not have enough insurance
coverage to fully compensate you for your injuries, lost
wages and pain and suffering, then your attorney will seek
additional settlement funds from your own
uninsured/underinsured motorist policy.
Fatal Motorcycle Accidents:
Motorcycle riders are vulnerable to fatal accidents. After any
such tragedy, we encourage surviving family members to seek
legal advice about whether to file a
wrongful death claim against the person who caused the fatal
accident.
After a Motorcycle Accident, Immediate Investigation Is Critical
We need to get involved as quickly as possible after a
motorcycle accident. The sooner we begin our own investigation,
the more evidence we will be able to locate to help prove that
you did not cause your own motorcycle accident.
We work with accident reconstructionists, we take
photographs, look for videotapes of the accident, and interview
any witnesses.
