Legal Insights for Dallas Motorcycle Accident Claims

Liability sits at the center of a motorcycle claim, and many wrecks start with a driver who looked but did not see the bike. Distracted driving, unsafe lane changes, and failure to yield the right of way are common causes of motorcycle accidents. We build cases with evidence to show exactly how a driver violated the rules of the road.

Common driver behaviors that cause motorcycle crashes include:

• Left turns across a rider’s path at intersections
• Following too closely, leading to rear-end impacts
• Texting, speeding, or drifting into a lane occupied by a motorcycle

Compensation can cover medical bills, lost income, pain and suffering, and repair or replacement of your bike. Future needs, such as ongoing therapy or reduced earning capacity, are also considered. We review your records and consult with your doctors to connect your injuries to the crash.

Common Damages in Texas Motorcycle Cases and Helpful Proof

Immediate steps after a crash help protect your health and your claim. If safe, capture details while they are fresh, then get checked by a doctor right away.

1. Call 9-1-1, get medical help, and request a police report number.
2. Exchange information with the other driver and identify witnesses.
3. Take photos of vehicles, road marks, and your injuries.
4. Seek medical care even for pain that seems minor.
5. Talk with a lawyer before giving a recorded statement to an insurer.

We can step in early, deal with adjusters, and keep your claim on track from day one.

How Galvan Law Group Supports Motorcycle Accident Victims

Our firm handles the legal legwork so you can focus on healing. We keep cases moving forward, and we keep you in the loop with regular updates.

Comprehensive Case Evaluation

Every case starts with a deep dive into fault and coverage. We review police reports, scene photos, dashcam or surveillance video, and witness accounts. When needed, we work with reconstruction professionals to explain angles, speeds, and timing.

We also search for all available insurance coverage that might cover your claim, including UM or UIM policies and any third-party coverage. This step often expands the pot of money available to you. The goal is to identify every responsible party and every potential dollar tied to the crash.

Aggressive Representation Against Insurance Companies

Before founding the firm, Sabrina worked at insurance defense firms. She knows the tactics adjusters use to reduce payouts, such as lowball offers, shifting blame, and gaps in medical treatment arguments. We challenge those tactics with supporting evidence and strong negotiation skills.

Our demand packages show the full story of your claim, from the moment of impact to your recovery. If an insurer pushes back with unfair offers, we are ready to file suit and present your case to a jury.

Personalized Legal Guidance

You will never feel like a file number with Galvan Law Group. We update you on every major step, answer questions quickly, and thoroughly explain your options. We develop a case strategy based on your goal for resolution, the facts of your case, and your injuries.

Pursuing Maximum Compensation

We build claims that account for today’s bills and tomorrow’s needs. If negotiations stall, we are prepared to present your case in a Dallas County courtroom. Our focus is to obtain a fair result that reflects the full impact of the crash on your life.

Understanding Common Motorcycle Accident Injuries

Riders face direct exposure to the impact and the road, often leading to serious injuries. Even a low-speed collision can cause lasting damage. Quick medical treatment can make a real difference for recovery and for documenting your claim.

• Head injuries, including concussions and traumatic brain injuries
• Broken bones in the arms, legs, ribs, or collarbone
• Spinal cord and back injuries, including herniated discs
• Road rash with infection risk and scarring
• Internal injuries and bleeding that are not obvious at first

If you feel off in any way after an accident, get checked by a doctor and follow the treatment plan. Delays in medical treatment give insurers an opening to argue that your injuries were caused by something else. We help you keep track of your care and keep records organized.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dallas Motorcycle Accidents

Here are quick answers to issues riders most often ask about. Your case is personal, and we are happy to talk with you about the details of your case one-on-one.

What should I do immediately after a motorcycle accident?

Focus on safety by calling 9-1-1 and requesting a police response. Exchange information with the other driver, get witness names and contact information, and take photos of vehicle damage, skid marks, and your injuries. Speak with a lawyer before you talk to an insurance adjuster about fault or injuries.

How long do I have to file a motorcycle accident lawsuit in Texas?

Texas law gives you two years from the date of the crash to file a personal injury lawsuit. Missing that deadline can prevent you from receiving compensation for your injuries. Contact a lawyer promptly to ensure you don’t miss the deadline to file a claim and to ensure the evidence is preserved.

What if I wasn’t wearing a helmet at the time of the accident?

Texas has helmet laws that can impact a case. However, not wearing a helmet does not automatically block recovery. Under Texas comparative fault rules, compensation can be reduced if a jury believes the lack of a helmet worsened injuries. We can evaluate this issue by reviewing the facts of the accident and your medical records.

What if the other driver was uninsured or underinsured?

You can pursue a claim under your own UM or UIM policy if the at-fault driver lacks enough insurance coverage or if the other driver did not have insurance. We review all potential insurance sources and pursue every available dollar. Our firm handles the paperwork and negotiations with your carrier as well.
