Why Motorcycle Wreck Victims Choose Us
Patterson Law Group Fights for Injured Riders
Motorcycle riders face unique dangers on the road. When a driver fails to see you, runs a red light, or cuts into your lane, the consequences can be catastrophic. We understand the bias riders face and we fight to make sure you’re treated fairly.

Small Caseloads, Big Results
We limit the number of cases we take so we can devote the time and resources needed to build the strongest possible claim for every injured rider.
Direct Attorney Access
You won't be handed off to a call center or chain of assistants. From day one, you'll have direct access to an attorney who is actively involved in your case.
Fighting Rider Bias
Insurance companies often blame the rider. We know their tactics and build cases that counter this bias, proving the other driver's negligence caused your injuries.
Know the Risks
Why Motorcycle Wrecks Are So Dangerous
Motorcyclists are far more vulnerable than occupants of enclosed vehicles. Even a low-speed collision can result in life-changing injuries.
No Protective Barrier
Unlike car occupants, motorcyclists have no steel frame, airbags, or seatbelts to absorb impact. Your body takes the full force of the collision, making injuries far more severe.
Drivers Who Don't Look
The most common cause of motorcycle accidents is a driver who "didn't see" the rider. Left turns, lane changes, and blind spots put motorcyclists at constant risk from negligent drivers.
Road Hazards Are Deadlier
Potholes, gravel, wet pavement, and debris that a car would drive over can be catastrophic for a motorcycle rider, causing loss of control and high-speed crashes.
Insurance Company Bias
Insurers routinely try to blame the motorcyclist, arguing they were speeding or riding recklessly — even when the other driver was clearly at fault. You need attorneys who fight back.

Serious Injuries
Common Injuries in Motorcycle Wrecks
Because riders lack the protection of an enclosed vehicle, motorcycle accidents frequently result in severe, life-altering injuries.
Traumatic Brain Injuries
Even with a helmet, the impact of a motorcycle crash can cause concussions, skull fractures, and severe brain trauma leading to long-term cognitive and physical impairment.
Spinal Cord Injuries
The force of being thrown from a motorcycle can cause spinal fractures and nerve damage, potentially resulting in partial or complete paralysis.
Road Rash & Skin Grafts
Sliding across pavement at speed causes severe abrasion injuries that can penetrate deep tissue layers, often requiring multiple surgeries and skin grafts.
Broken Bones & Fractures
Legs, arms, wrists, collarbones, and ribs are extremely vulnerable in motorcycle wrecks. Compound fractures may require surgical repair and lengthy rehabilitation.
Amputation & Limb Loss
Catastrophic motorcycle collisions can result in traumatic amputation or injuries so severe that surgical amputation becomes necessary.
Wrongful Death
When a motorcycle wreck takes a life, we help families pursue justice and full compensation for their devastating, irreversible loss.

Frequently Asked Questions
Motorcycle Wreck FAQ
What should I do after a motorcycle accident?
Seek medical attention immediately, even if you feel okay — adrenaline can mask serious injuries. Document the scene with photos, get the other driver’s information, and do not give a recorded statement to their insurance company. Contact an experienced motorcycle accident attorney as soon as possible.
What if the insurance company blames me for the accident?
Insurance companies routinely try to shift blame onto motorcyclists. Texas follows a modified comparative negligence rule — you can still recover compensation even if you’re partially at fault, as long as you’re not more than 50% responsible. We build strong cases to counter these tactics.
How much does it cost to hire Patterson Law Group?
Nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay no attorney fees unless we recover compensation for you. Your initial consultation is completely free with no obligation.
Do I need a lawyer if I was wearing a helmet?
Absolutely. Wearing a helmet protects you physically, but it doesn’t protect your legal rights. You still need an attorney to handle the insurance company, negotiate fair compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering, and take the case to trial if necessary.
How long do I have to file a motorcycle accident claim in Texas?
The statute of limitations in Texas is generally two years from the date of the accident. However, evidence can disappear quickly — witness memories fade, surveillance footage gets deleted, and vehicle damage gets repaired. Contact an attorney as soon as possible to preserve your case.
