Compensation for Your Motorcycle Crash Injuries
If you were hurt in a crash and sustained losses due to another’s negligence, you may be allowed to file a compensation claim for damages. No two accidents and no two injury victims are the same.
Your losses are unique to you, but the common types of compensation recovered in motorcycle accident claims include:
- Hospital stays, surgeries, treatment, specialist care, rehab, and other current and future medical expenses
- Out-of-pocket expenses such as help with home maintenance, childcare, transportation, or modification of living spaces to accommodate emerging needs
- Loss of wages during recovery
- Loss of future earnings
- Repair or replacement of the motorcycle and other property damaged in the crash
- Pain and suffering associated with the injury
- Mental and emotional distress
- Loss of quality of life
These and other losses may all have a place in your compensation claim. Please talk with one of our Palm Beach Gardens motorcycle accident attorneys as you pursue compensation. Our experienced lawyers can guide you through the process.

- If we cannot reach a settlement, representing you in court in pursuit of a compensation judgment or verdict
Our Palm Beach Gardens motorcycle accident attorneys will use their experience to get the best possible outcome for you and your family.
Recovering Compensation When You Share Fault for a Motorcycle Accident
Florida’s modified comparative negligence rule (Florida Statutes § 768.81) means you may recover some compensation for your losses even if you are partially at fault for the crash.
- If your share of the blame for the crash is 50% or more, you cannot recover compensation.
- If your share of the blame is 50% or less, you may recover compensation minus your percentage of fault. If you are not at fault, you may recover 100% of your compensation. If you are, for instance, 10% at fault, you may only recover 90% of your compensation.
Meeting the Deadline to Begin Legal Action After Your Motorcycle Crash
Most personal injury cases are settled through negotiations. However, in some situations, an agreement can’t be reached, and filing a personal injury lawsuit may be the only way for a victim to recover damages.
Florida’s statute of limitations (Florida Statutes § 95.11) generally allows two years to start legal action after a motor vehicle accident. When our legal team handles a case, we will ensure you are aware of all deadlines related to your personal injury claim.
Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents in Florida
An act of negligence may not be obvious in a motorcycle crash. Speaking with an attorney after a crash may help you recognize how another’s behavior contributed to your injuries and damages. Following are examples of negligence that may cause a crash:
- Driving while impaired, distracted, or fatigued
- Speeding
- Changing lanes without checking a blind spot
- Turning left without checking for oncoming motorcycles or other vehicles
- Poor road maintenance
- Malfunctioning traffic signals
- Hidden traffic signs
- Road hazards
- Poor vehicle maintenance
- Vehicle product failure
