ALEXANDRIA MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT ATTORNEYS
Motorcyclists are often given the short end of the deal when it comes to seeking compensation after a bad accident. Even if the wreck was clearly not their fault, insurance companies will try to blame them in any way they can manage. Desperate for any amount of compensation to help them recover, many motorcyclists accept lowball settlements that don’t do enough.
At Morris & Dewett Injury Lawyers, we know it is wrong to disrespect the rights of injured motorcyclists to save a buck. We are proud to stand up for local riders in Alexandria, Louisiana, and to fight major insurance companies in their names. There is no such thing as a legal fight that scares us, even if it means going to court against aggressive defense teams.

Severe Injuries Suffered by Motorcyclists
The average car accident does not cause severe injuries to motorists because most crashes happen at relatively low speeds and modern cars are built with protective equipment like airbags. On the other hand, the average motorcycle accident can cause catastrophic injuries to a motorcyclist because they have basically no protection. Even at relatively low speeds, like 25 mph in a residential area, a collision between a motorcyclist and a larger vehicle can result in life-changing or life-threatening injuries.
It is not uncommon for motorcyclists to suffer these injuries in bad crashes:
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
- Road rash
- Broken bones
- Spinal cord injuries
- Permanent disfigurement
- Internal organ damage

What Causes Motorcycle Accidents?
Some motorcycle accidents are caused by reckless riders, of course. But many of the worst wrecks are caused by third parties, so it is wrong for insurance companies to label all motorcyclists as reckless individuals who “ride for the thrill” of it.
Motorcycle accidents can be caused by:
-
Drivers who turn left in front of approaching motorcycles
-
Drivers who don’t check their mirrors or blind spots when merging
-
Poor road conditions like potholes or debris in the road
-
Motorcycle part defects like brake failures or burst tires
