Motorcycle Accidents

North Carolina Motorcycle Accident Lawyers

Caring representation for injured bikers across the state since 1982

Motorcycle accidents can be some of the most serious motor vehicle accidents, especially at high speed on state highways and interstates, given the little protection afforded by a biker's helmet and clothing. Amazingly, most motorcyclists survive their accidents, but they often suffer serious injuries, scarring and disfigurement that affects them for a lifetime.

At the law offices of Kelly & West, in Lillington, we work compassionately and professionally with injured motorcycle riders and their families, as well as with the families of fatal crash victims. We also handle claims involving moped collisions and motorized scooter accidents.

Our aim in handling personal injury claims for motorcycle accidents is to get injured bikers and their families the full compensation they deserve from negligent drivers. For a FREE consultation to discuss your accident and injuries, contact the motorcycle accident attorneys at Kelly & West.

With high gas prices and the cost-savings of alternate transportation, there are more people riding motorcycles, scooters, motorbikes and mopeds than ever. A rider saves considerable money on fuel, and does not have to purchase a license plate or insurance: However, if a rider is injured in a crash, the costs and consequences can be very high.

Both motorcycle accidents that happen at high speed on a North Carolina highway and motorized scooter crashes at low speed on residential streets in Lillington, Sanford, Dunn or other cities can have catastrophic and tragic outcomes:

Hemet laws and contributory negligence in motorcycle accident claims

Whether you followed the state mandatory helmet law is a very large issue in motorcycle accident claims. Under state contributory negligence law, if you are even one percent at fault for the accident - and fault can include negligence in not wearing a helmet and suffering a head injury - you lose your right to bring a claim.
