Dallas Motorcycle Accident Attorney

Helping Motorcyclists Get the Compensation They Need and the Justice They Deserve

Motorcyclists are among the most vulnerable drivers on the road. They are exposed to the elements, and their vehicles are much smaller than other vehicles on the road. Therefore, when motorcyclists are involved in traffic accidents, the injuries they suffer are often catastrophic, including broken bones, traumatic brain injuries, and spinal cord injuries.

If you were involved in a motorcycle accident, you may have sustained serious injuries. In such a case, you should not have to worry about how you will pay for your medical bills, or any other expenses related to your injuries. You should be able to focus on getting the medical care you need and recovering as quickly as possible.

AtMike Slocumb Law Firm, we believe that no one should have to go through life after a catastrophic accident without the care and support they need. Our Dallas motorcycle accident lawyers can help you file a claim and fight aggressively to ensure you receive the maximum possible compensation so that instead of worrying about your finances you can concentrate on healing physically, mentally, and emotionally.

Recovering Damages After a Motorcycle Accident

What Is the Maximum Settlement for a Car Accident in Texas?

Technically, there is no “maximum” settlement for car accident claims in Texas. Instead, there are many factors that influence the overall value of your claim and the amount in compensation you can expect to receive.

Some of these factors include: 

  • The severity of your injuries
  • Whether you were partly at fault for the accident
  • Your degree of fault (if any)
  • The cost of your medical bills and related expenses
  • The value of your lost wages, income, and employment benefits
  • Whether your injuries led to temporary or permanent disability
  • The value of your lost earning capacity (if any)
  • Projected future medical costs related to your injury
  • Projected future lost earnings related to your injury
  • The value of your diminished quality/enjoyment of life
  • Available insurance coverage

In Texas, the minimum liability insurance requirements include $30,000 in bodily injury per person and $60,000 in bodily injury per accident, as well as $25,000 in property damage per accident. However, you may have additional coverage available through your auto insurance provider. You may also be entitled to sue the liable motorist for damages if they do not have sufficient insurance to cover the cost of your damages, or if they are uninsured.

We strongly recommend that you reach out to our team to discuss your various options. Mike Slocumb Law Firm offers free, zero-obligation consultations. We want to help you get the information you need to make empowered decisions about your recovery and your future.

How Long Do You Have to File a Car Accident Lawsuit?

In Texas, you typically have two years from the date of the accident to file your claim in court. If you miss the two-year statute limitations, the court will almost certainly dismiss your case, meaning you will not be able to recover any compensation for your damages.

Note that this only applies to car accident lawsuits, not insurance claims. Most insurance companies require you to file a claim much sooner, usually within a few days to a couple of weeks at most. We encourage you to act quickly after a car accident so that you do not unintentionally jeopardize your right to recover compensation.

Get in touch with our Dallas car accident attorneys right away to learn how we can help you with your claim. We offer free consultations and contingency fees, so you do not owe any attorney fees or litigation-related expenses unless/until we recover a settlement or verdict for you.
