Motorcycle riders enjoy the sense of freedom and adventure as they travel Gastonia’s roads, enjoying the fresh air and scenic outdoors. The small but quick vehicles are also practical, allowing riders to commute with ease. However, the benefits of riding do not erase the dangers of the road; some of the same elements that make motorcycles so much fun and unique, like speed, agility, and being exposed to the sunshine, also expose riders to significantly greater risks of injury or death.

Some accident victims are hesitant to work with insurers for many reasons. They already have injuries to treat, so filing a claim can feel like a chore, especially when they consider the possible back-and-forth over a claim that goes nowhere. With us working on your case, you won’t have to worry about that–we will do it for you.
Some insurance companies hold unfavorable views of motorcycle riders, which can influence their decisions about paying claims in bike crash cases. They could challenge your claim, saying you caused the wreck because you were speeding, weaving through traffic, or engaging in other risk-taking road behavior.
We can challenge those assumptions or any others with evidence, such as witness testimony or video footage, and protect you from such treatment. If you have heard from an insurer, do not verbally agree to anything or sign any paperwork until you talk to one of our motorcycle crash injury lawyers in Gastonia, NC.

Injured parties can seek financial damages in the civil courts, but they have a set time to do so. North Carolina’s statute of limitations deadline limits the time you have to sue for losses after a motorcycle crash.
Generally, parties have three years from the accident date to sue for damages, per North Carolina General Statutes § 1-52. Parties in wrongful death cases generally have two years from the decedent’s death date to take action, per North Carolina General Statutes § 1-53.
We recommend that you call our team now to get started. If the deadline expires before you file, you risk losing your right to sue the liable party for damages.
