Many Arizona residents enjoy riding motorcycles to take in the state’s beautiful scenery. While riding a motorcycle can be thrilling, they lack safety features, such as an enclosed cabin and a steel frame. When a car, truck, or bus strikes a motorcyclist, they may suffer catastrophic injuries that have a lasting impact on their daily lives. If a car or truck driver caused the collision because they failed to observe their surroundings or obey traffic laws, they may be held liable through a motorcycle accident lawsuit.

If someone else’s negligence caused your motorcycle accident and injuries, you may have legal grounds to file a personal injury claim against the negligent party for your injuries and other losses.

To successfully establish fault leading to liability, your case must include proof of the following elements:

When one of our skilled attorneys takes your case, they will conduct a thorough investigation to determine the cause of your accident and the parties responsible.
Evidence is essential to any motorcycle accident claim and can help your attorney determine and establish liability for your injuries. A few pieces of evidence that can bolster your claim and help hold the negligent party accountable include:
