Fishers Motorcycle Accident Attorneys

Pursue Justice & Restitution with Our Trial-Tested Legal Team

Hoosiers are blessed with beautiful open fields and bustling cityscapes. The serene Indiana landscapes are one reason why motorcycles are very popular in our state. However, riding on a motorcycle can be a very dangerous hobby. For example, there are approximately 32,000 motorcycle-related fatalities in the United States each year.

Both hardcore bikers and casual riders frequently find themselves at the mercy of reckless, irritated, or distracted car and truck drivers. Because motorcycles lack external safety features, riders often sustain severe injuries that warrant extensive medical treatments and ongoing rehabilitative services. At Massillanany Jeter & Carson LLP, our Fishers motorcycle accident lawyers are armed with the experience and resources you need to effectively pursue a positive case outcome. In fact, our legal team is professionally renowned for maximizing claims and recovering damages that mitigate our clients’ injury-related debts.

Common Causes for Motorcycle Accidents

All motor vehicle operators – car drivers, truckers, and motorcyclists – have a legal obligation to obey both state and federal traffic laws. However, many motorists and truckers struggle to safely operate their vehicles when they’re in the same vicinity as a motorcycle rider. They are used to seeing larger vehicles in their mirrors and blind spots, not something considerably smaller, like a motorbike. Tragic motorcycle accidents occur because motor vehicle operators fail to yield the right of way to riders, especially at intersections.

People hurt in motorcycle accidents can suffer the following injuries:

• Broken bones
• Spinal cord damage
• Paralysis
• Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
• Scarring and disfigurement
• “Road rash”
• Internal organ damage

Past investigations and studies have proven that motorcycle riders are rarely the at-fault parties in motor vehicle collisions. Unfortunately, the greater public tends to believe the contrary. Most people – including some judges – tend to equate all riders with the gruff and dangerous affectation that has been perpetuated by outlaw motorcycle clubs since the 1940s. This assumption leads people to believe that motorcycle riders are reckless in nature, and therefore prone to causing crashes.

If you or a loved one has been injured or killed by a negligent driver, it’s imperative that you retain the services of a qualified and experienced motorcycle accident attorney as quickly as possible. There are many nuances, protocols, and regulations associated with motorcycle accident cases, and your lawyer needs time to investigate the accident and compile critical evidence. At Massillanany Jeter & Carson LLP, we can track down witnesses, consult with medical experts, and work with an accident reconstructionist to develop a litigation strategy that proves the at-fault driver is responsible for your injuries.
