MOTORCYCLE CRASH LAWYERS

Start On the Road to Recovery

After a bad motorcycle accident takes lands you in the hospital, it might seem like your recovery is far away. Indeed, the steps you take next will largely determine just how quickly and comfortably you can recover from your wreck. To give yourself a strong chance of getting back on your feet without defeating your bank account, you should team up with a trusted team of lawyers who can manage an injury claim on your behalf.

For the people of Fort Worth, Morris & Dewett Injury Lawyers is the first law firm they trust for reliable legal representation and counsel. We are a powerful and eclectic team of legal professionals who can take a collective approach to difficult cases, which often catches the opposition off their balance. When met with the 20+ years of experience that we bring to each case, insurance companies feel the pressure to concede and give our clients fair settlement offers.

Texas Motorcycle Helmet Law

Texas law requires all motorcycle riders who are under the age of 21 to wear a motorcycle helmet while the vehicle is in operation. Older riders can choose not to wear a helmet if they have current and applicable insurance.

Choosing not to wear a helmet is not good for two reasons:

Injury risk:

Without a motorcycle helmet, you dramatically increase your risk of suffering a permanent head or brain injury in a crash. The majority of deaths in motorcycle accidents are suffered by riders with no helmets.
Liability risk:

Furthermore, if you get hit while not wearing a helmet, then you run the risk of increasing your own liability for any damage related to your head injury. The defendant could argue that you knowingly chose to increase your risk of a head injury by not wearing a helmet and, therefore, they should not be fully liable for it.

What Damages Can You Sue For?

When we determine who is liable for your motorcycle accident and by how much, we can start to prepare a claim to file against them. An important part of your case is calculating how much money is owed to you, which is called your damages. In a motorcycle accident claim, you can seek non-economic and economic damages that reflect how much money, health, and happiness you have lost due to the crash that someone else caused.

Typical damages to pursue in a motorcycle accident claim include:

Medical treatments

Lost wages

Pain and suffering

Permanent disability

Medical treatments

The value of all your necessary medical treatments related to your motorcycle accident injuries should be paid to you through a settlement or award. We work diligently to calculate your future medical care, too, not just what you have already received.

Lost wages

If your income has been reduced because you cannot continue to work due to your injuries, then we can demand that income and the income you won’t earn in the future as part of your economic damages.

Pain and suffering

The physical pain, mental anguish, and emotional suffering you have experienced because of your injuries can be translated into a monetary recovery as a type of non-economic damage.

Permanent disability

When a motorcycle accident victim suffers a permanent disability, which is often the case, additional non-economic damages can be paid to them to account for the hardships and costs that will be endured due to that disability.

Start Your Motorcycle Accident Case Sooner Than Later

Don’t wait too long to take legal action after being in a wreck. Texas has a brief statute of limitations for injury claims. Once it expires, you cannot demand a recovery from the liable party, even if you have an excellent case that proves beyond any doubt that they alone caused your injuries.

Clair and Liz are the greatest! Clair kept me informed of the process. Liz worked hard to achieve the best outcome. I would highly recommend Morris & Dewett, hands down.

BOLD-en S.

I appreciate the team at Morris & Dewett for helping me navigate my case. My experience began on a very high note with Attorney Heather and her assistant in the Shreveport office. They were very impressive and truly listened to my account of the incident, helping to set the important details in the proper place. It was quite comforting to speak directly with the lawyer and not just an assistant; Heather made me feel like what I had to say mattered, and she gained my trust immediately.

As the case progressed, I was reassigned to a lawyer in the Ruston office who met with me via phone, and finally worked with another attorney back in the Shreveport office to close the case. While these changes caused some initial uncertainty, the team eventually brought me up to speed and reassured me that the case was moving forward.

The staff was consistently professional. I especially appreciated Mrs. Star, who was wonderful to work with; she would reach out with professional and friendly reminders about upcoming meetings, which was very helpful.

I did experience one issue regarding my physical therapy. There was a mix-up where a $1,000 deposit needed for a new PT office was sent to the orthopedic office (FLEX) instead. Because the funds went to the other provider, I wasn't able to begin that specific therapy program, though I was able to continue my recovery using home exercises from my previous center.
Regarding the final settlement, I was not entirely happy with the final amount, but I was made aware of the specific policy limits associated with the other driver's insurance carrier. I appreciate that the legal team reached out to medical facilities to try to reduce my bills and was successful with some of them. Additionally, the managers approved a reduction in the firm’s fee by a few hundred dollars when the initial office amount was higher than my client portion. This effort to ensure I received a fair share did not go unnoticed.

The closing process was efficient. Attorney Coleman was very thorough in offering to walk me through the paperwork, and I also appreciated the company swag bag at the end. Thank you to the whole team for your help! Great Law Firm.
