Motorcycle Accident Attorneys in Peoria IL

Retain Compassionate & Experienced Legal Representation

For countless enthusiasts across the nation, motorcycles symbolize passionate freedom and exhilarating highway adventures. When the open road calls, these thrill-seeking bikers put on their helmets and take off on new journeys. However, highways can be incredibly dangerous for motorcyclists whenever car or truck drivers refuse to tolerate their presence. This often leads to aggressive driving behaviors that put the motorcyclist’s life in jeopardy. Consequently, the fatality rate for motorcyclists is 6 times greater than that of car and truck drivers. When dealing with a motorcycle accident yourself, you need representation from motorcycle accident attorneys in Peoria IL.

Pursuing Compensation for Your Injuries

When accidents occur, motorcyclists tend to sustain severe injuries because their only physical protection is whatever safety gear they happen to be wearing. Legally, motorcyclists are entitled to the same road privileges as car and truck drivers. However, some motor vehicle drivers become frustrated and anxious around motorcyclists, leading them to make problematic decisions that jeopardize the lives of everyone on the road. Alternatively, a speeding or distracted driver may not even notice a motorcyclist, and inadvertently be responsible for an accident that alters the rider’s life forever.

Motorcyclists can sustain the following injuries in a collision:

  • Brain injuries
  • Skull fractures
  • Spinal injuries
  • Paraplegia
  • Disfigurement
  • Broken bones
  • Muscle damage
