Heath Motorcycle Accident Attorneys

Skilled Lawyers for Victims of Motorcycle Wrecks in Heath, TX

By their very nature, motorcycle accidents carry an increased risk of injury and death compared to car accidents. If you have been injured on your motorcycle due to the negligence of another driver, do not delay in taking legal action. A Heath, Texas motorcycle accident lawyer can help you seek an appropriate remedy for your damages.

At Burress Injury Law, we have helped hundreds of clients recover compensation from auto wrecks, including motorcycle accidents. We have a history of successful case results, with a case win rate of more than 99.9 percent, including a gross settlement of $815,000 that we secured on behalf of a motorcyclist injured by a drunk driver.

What Do I Need in Order to File a Personal Injury Claim After a Motorcycle Wreck?

In order to get compensation for a motorcycle wreck, you must show that the other driver or another party caused the accident through negligence. Examples of negligence in motorcycle accidents include:

• Texting while driving
• Drunk driving
• Excessive speeding
• Swerving between lanes
• Disregarding traffic signs or signals

Unfortunately, your testimony by itself will not be enough to prove that the other party was negligent. You must also supply proof to show what happened, such as photos of the wreck, footage of the crash, and testimony from other witnesses.

At Burress Injury Law, we can handle the investigative work for your personal injury claim. We can also negotiate with the other driver's insurance company on your behalf, and if a settlement cannot be reached, we can take your case to court for a trial.

Statute of Limitations in a Motorcycle Accident Claim

In Texas, all personal injury claims have a time limit known as the statute of limitations. When the statute of limitations on a case expires, the plaintiff will not be able to take legal action anymore, which is why it is essential to seek out an attorney as soon as possible after your injury.

For motorcycle accidents, the statute of limitations starts running from the date of the crash. Once the statute of limitations goes into effect, will have up to two years to file a claim against the liable party. There are some exceptions to this rule, however. For example, if you were a minor at the time of the accident, the two-year statute of limitations will only go into effect after you turn 18. At Burress Injury Law, we can help you take swift legal action on your motorcycle accident claim and avoid unnecessary delays in filing.
