Florida Motorcycle Laws and Accident Information

www.motorcycle-florida.com

This site explains Florida motorcycle laws and accident information for consumers, attorneys, and journalists. If you have been in a motorcycle accident, reading this site is not meant to take the place of legal advice from an experienced motorcycle accident attorney.  Before contacting an attorney consider reviewing the information in the Frequent Questions section on this site.   Then we hope you will consider contacting our firm.  If you would like a quick email opinion on whether you may have a good motorcycle accident case, click on "Do I Have a Good Case," and we will try to respond to you promptly.

Motorcycle accidents and fatalities are on the rise in Florida and nationwide after years of declining, with an influx of Baby Boomers riding motorcycles and some states like Florida relaxing their helmet laws. Many common concerns about motorcycle accidents claims — such as attorneys' fees and caps on damages — are covered under the section on Frequent Questions. We also offer tips for steps to follow after a motorcycle accident to preserve evidence and increase your chances to maximize your monetary recovery.

Insurance and liability issues are particularly important in personal injury claims for motorcycle accidents: no-fault insurance coverage, comparative negligence if both drivers are partly to blame, and what happens if the other driver is uninsured or underinsured. Your attorney should be familiar with motorcycle manufacturer recalls, motorcycle helmet laws, and other statutes pertaining to motorcycles and injury litigation.

Statistically speaking, motorcycle accidents are far more likely to result in fatality or catastrophic injury, including brain and spinal injuries. Even "minor" crashes can result in severe fractures and road rash for the biker, while the auto driver survives the accident without harm. A qualified motorcycle accident attorney will help you pursue full compensation, including future medical care, lost earning potential, and damages for loss of enjoyment of life.

Whether on a Harley, metric, or Vespa scooter, if you or a family member has been injured in a Florida motorcycle accident, see "Do I Have a Good Case?" for a free, no-obligation evaluation of your situation.
