A motorcycle accident can flip your life upside down in an instant. Medical bills pile up. You can't work. Your bike is wrecked. And the insurance company is already calling — not to help you, but to protect themselves. You're hurt, overwhelmed, and unsure where to turn.

A motorcyclist was sideswiped by a distracted driver on Loop 12 and suffered serious road rash and a broken collarbone. The attorney handled all communication with the insurance company while the rider focused on recovery.

Questions

How long do I have to file a motorcycle accident claim in Texas?

In Texas, you generally have 2 years from the date of your accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. Miss that deadline and you may lose your right to recover anything. Don't wait — contact an attorney as soon as possible.

How much does it cost to hire a motorcycle accident attorney?

Nothing upfront. The attorneys in our network work on a contingency fee basis. That means they only get paid if you win or reach a settlement. No fee unless you win — period.

How long does a motorcycle accident case typically take?

Every case is different. Some settle in a few months. Others that involve serious injuries or disputed liability can take a year or more. Your attorney will give you a realistic picture once they review your situation.

What should I do immediately after a motorcycle accident in Dallas?

Call 911. Get medical attention — even if you feel okay. Document the scene with photos if you're able. Collect witness contact information. Do not admit fault. And do not give a recorded statement to any insurance company before speaking with an attorney.

What Texas Law Means For Your Motorcycle Accident Case

In Dallas, Texas, injury cases follow the same statewide rules — but local courts and insurance adjusters have their own patterns. The attorney we match you with knows them.

The 2-Year Deadline

Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code §16.003 gives you exactly 2 years from the date of injury to file suit. Miss it and your case is over — there is no extension, no exception for "I didn't know I could sue." Wrongful death claims have the same 2-year window from the date of death.

Modified Comparative Fault (51% Bar)

Texas uses Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code §33.001. You can recover damages as long as you are 50% or less at fault. If you are 51%+ at fault, you recover nothing. Insurance companies know this rule and aggressively try to push fault percentages above 50%. An experienced attorney pushes back.

Damage Caps You Should Know

Texas caps non-economic damages in medical malpractice cases at $250,000 per defendant (Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code §74.301). There are no caps in standard auto, premises, or product cases — making attorney negotiation skill the deciding factor in your final number.

What To Do Right Now

  1. Get medical care immediately. Insurance companies argue any gap in treatment means you weren't really hurt.
  2. Do not give a recorded statement. Adjusters call within hours of a crash to lock you into damaging admissions. Decline politely.
  3. Save everything. Photos, medical records, bills, work-loss documentation, witness contacts.
  4. Get matched with an attorney before you sign anything. Settlement releases are final.
