    FAQs about motorcycle accident claims

    What types of damages can I recover by bringing a motorcycle accident claim?

    After a motorcycle accident, you can win compensation for both economic and non-economic damages.

    Economic damages could include:

    • medical expenses
    • lost wages
    • physical rehabilitation
    • property damage

    Non-economic damages include:

    • pain and suffering
    • mental distress
    • loss of enjoyment of life

    We help you claim every type of damage available to you to maximize your settlements and get the compensation you deserve.

    Is Nevada an at-fault state for motorcycle accident claims?

    Yes, Nevada is an at-fault state for motorcycle accident claims. That means you can win compensation no matter how severe your injuries are. Any time someone else causes an accident and you have injuries, you may receive financial compensation. Nevada law does not require you to make a claim to your own insurance before seeking payment from the responsible party.

    Do motorcyclists have the same rights as other motorists in Nevada?

    Yes, motorcyclists have the same rights as other motorists in Nevada. Motorcyclists have the right to use the road entirely and with the same protections as other drivers. Whenever an accident occurs due to someone else’s negligence, the victim has a legal claim. There is no difference in legal standing, no matter what vehicle the person is driving.

    What are the standards to win a motorcycle accident lawsuit in Nevada?

    To win a motorcycle accident lawsuit in Nevada, you must prove that the other party caused the accident. Causing an accident usually means violating a traffic law, but not always. A driver is negligent any time their driving fails to meet standards of reasonable behavior on the roads. If the accident occurs because of another driver’s actions, you can win your motorcycle accident lawsuit in Nevada.

    If I wasn’t wearing a helmet, can I still win a motorcycle accident lawsuit in Nevada?

    Yes. If you weren’t wearing a helmet, you could still win a motorcycle accident lawsuit in Nevada. The amount you receive may be reduced because you didn’t wear a helmet. However, as long as the other party’s actions contribute to the crash, you can likely recover some compensation for your injuries. Nevada uses a system of comparative negligence to apportion fault and determine how to resolve the claim.

    Things you should know about motorcycle accidents

    Involvement in a motorcycle accident is a frightening, confusing experience for anybody. The following procedures are general guidelines you should follow:

    1. Stop immediately: Do not leave the scene. If there are no injuries, move vehicles out of the flow of traffic.
    2. Check for injuries: do not assume that a lack of a visible injury means a person is not hurt.
    3. Call the police: a motorcycle accident should be reported to the proper authorities, and the report may be helpful later in determining fault and receiving your due compensation.
    4. Exchange information: write down the name, address, phone number, insurance information, etc., of the person(s) who were involved in the incident.
