NORMAN MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT ATTORNEYS

Injured in a Motorcycle Accident? We Can Help!motorcycle accident Oklahoma

Motorcycle accidents can cause serious and life-threatening injuries for riders. In any motorcycle accident, it is the rider who generally suffers the worst injuries due to their relative lack of protection. Motorists often fail to see motorcyclists or fail to give them the road respect that they deserve. As a result, accidents can occur that leave motorcyclists with injuries ranging from road rash to spinal cord and head injuries.

If you have been injured in a motorcycle accident due to another’s negligence in Cleveland or Seminole counties, you need representation from an experienced motorcycle accident attorney. At Nichols Law Firm, our team knows how to investigate fault and liability, analyze insurance coverages, and negotiate on your behalf for maximum compensation. We are committed to helping accident victims recover all applicable damages caused by negligence-based injuries. 

You don’t owe a fee unless we win. Contact our Norman motorcycle accident attorneys at (405) 294-1511 for a case evaluation.

Motorcycle Accidents in Oklahoma

Motorcycle accidents are often caused by:

  • Motorists failing to check blind spots
  • Motorists failing to signal lane changes
  • Speeding
  • Sudden stops
  • Motorists making left turns in front of oncoming motorcyclists
  • Distracted driving
  • Driving under the influence of alcohol/drugs

With Oklahoma's varied road conditions, from urban intersections in Norman to the rural highways stretching through Cleveland County, the risks for motorcyclists are diverse. Local weather can also impact road safety, and drivers may not always adjust their driving for the rain or wind that marks certain parts of the year, further increasing danger for motorcycle riders. Consulting a seasoned attorney from Nichols Law Firm ensures you are equipped to handle claims in any weather-related context or unique road situation.

Fault and liability for motorcycle accidents are often intensely disputed. Insurance companies are adept at interpreting statements and evidence in their favor. No matter how your bike crash occurred, we have the knowledge and resources to disprove claims. We can also explore applicable insurance benefits and establish the accident’s full impact on your life and earning capacity. Finally, we can develop the most compelling case possible for recovering maximum compensation through insurance negotiations or a trial if necessary.

Steps to Take Immediately Following a Motorcycle Accident

Immediate actions following a motorcycle accident in Norman are crucial. 

  1. Ensure you are safe and seek medical attention even if injuries seem minor, as some injuries may not be immediately apparent. 
  2. Document the scene by taking photographs and gathering contact information from witnesses and other drivers involved.
  3. Reporting the incident to local law enforcement can help gather an official accident report, which can be vital when filing a claim. 
  4. Securing legal advice early ensures your rights are protected from the get-go. We at Nichols Law Firm can guide you through these steps, utilizing our knowledge of the Norman area to expedite processes wherever possible.

Frequently Asked Questions

How Long Do I Have to File a Motorcycle Accident Claim in Oklahoma?

In Oklahoma, motorcycle accident claims are subject to the state's statute of limitations, which generally allows two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. While this may seem ample, starting early allows for in-depth investigations and a comprehensive case build-up, which could be crucial in securing favorable outcomes.

What Compensation Can I Recover from a Motorcycle Accident Claim?

The compensation from a motorcycle accident claim may cover various damages, including medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Each case is distinct; therefore, our firm examines all aspects of your loss, from immediate hospital bills to potential long-term financial impacts, ensuring you seek comprehensive restitution aligned with the full extent of your injuries and their effects.

    Drew was a knowledgeable, empathetic, and calming presence during the most difficult season of my life. He helped me navigate through a divorce process that took nearly a year and a half.
