(929) 333-4878Protecting the Rights of Injured Riders
Motorcycle accidents often lead to serious injuries that require long-term medical care and time away from work. Riders have less protection on the road, which makes even a minor collision dangerous. AH Law P.C. represents injured motorcyclists throughout New York, and we work to recover full compensation for the harm you have suffered.
Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents
Many motorcycle crashes happen because other drivers fail to share the road safely with riders. Our attorneys investigate every detail of your accident to determine fault and build a strong claim on your behalf. We identify the specific negligent actions that led to your injuries and hold the responsible parties accountable.
Protecting Your Rights
After a motorcycle accident, you may face medical bills, lost wages, and ongoing treatment. Insurance companies often try to place unfair blame on riders to reduce payouts. AH Law P.C. protects your rights by handling all communication with insurers and pushing back against these tactics. We gather evidence, review accident reports, and work with experts to support your case. Focus on Recovery Our firm focuses on your recovery while we manage the legal process. We calculate the full value of your damages, including future medical needs and the impact on your daily life. If a fair settlement is not offered, we are prepared to take your case to court and advocate for you. AH Law P.C. works on a contingency fee basis, so you do not pay legal fees unless we recover compensation for you. We provide clear guidance and keep you informed at every stage of your case. Contact AH Law P.C. today for a free consultation and learn how we can help you move forward after a motorcycle accident.
Frequently Asked Questions
Motorcycle Accident Claims
The legal process after a motorcycle crash can feel overwhelming. We have provided answers to some of the most common questions our firm receives from injured riders in New York.
In New York State, the statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is three years from the date of the accident. However, certain factors can shorten this timeframe, especially if a government vehicle was involved. You should contact an attorney as soon as possible to ensure you do not miss important legal deadlines.
You can still pursue a personal injury claim even if you were not wearing a helmet. New York follows a comparative negligence rule, which means you can recover compensation even if you were partially at fault for your injuries. Not wearing a helmet might impact the total amount of money you receive, but it does not take away your right to hold a negligent driver accountable.
Motorcycle riders are not covered by New York’s No-Fault insurance laws. This means you do not have to meet a "serious injury" threshold to file a lawsuit against a negligent driver for your medical bills and lost wages. Because No-Fault coverage does not apply, you can pursue a claim for all your losses immediately after the crash.
