Motorcycle Accidents

Best motorcycle accident lawyer in Nashville 2022Motorcycle accidents tend to be more traumatic than any other kind of vehicle accidents. These motorcycle accidents often involve serious injuries and can be personally and financially devastating. Despite the many stereotypes, most accidents involving motorcycles are not the motorcyclist’s fault. Most times, motorcycle accidents are the fault of reckless automobile drivers. In litigating these cases we have discovered that is crucial to carefully explain this common fact to the jury. Also, it is imperative to stress to the judge and jury that in Tennessee a motorcycle rider has the same rights as any other vehicle using the roadway. A motorcycle has the legal right to assume that all other drivers will obey the rules of the road and pay attention as the drive.

If you have been seriously injured while riding your motorcycle, it is important to find a serious injury lawyer experienced in Tennessee motorcycle accident litigation. If your motorcycle accident occurred in Tennessee, Kentucky or Georgia, then the attorney you need to represent you is attorney Jim Higgins. Mr. Higgins has practiced represented victims in motorcycle accidents across Southeast.

The personal injury lawyers at The Higgins Law Firm understand that most motorcycle accidents occur when the automobile driver fails to be aware of the motorcyclist on the road. When the car’s driver finally notices, it is often too late for the rider, who likely suffers the worst of the accident. Too often, these motorcycle crash injuries are life threatening, even when a helmet is worn and the Nashville motorcyclist rides defensively.

Some Nashville personal injury attorneys may be hesitant to defend the rights of injured motorcyclists because of the common misperception that motorcycles are unsafe. Many other Nashville lawyers find motorcycle accident cases too difficult to pursue. The Higgins Firm lawyers are a different breed of personal injury attorneys. We believe in the rights of every person on the road and work to defend the rights of all our Nashville, TN clients. Our job is to guide the injured motorcyclist safely through the process of recovering the compensation you are owed. Your injuries are not any less for having ridden a motorcycle nor is the negligence of the other party or parties any less.

These laws clearly require that the negligent party pay for your motorcycle repairs and accident injuries, including time off of work and medical bills.
