St. Louis Motorcycle Accident Attorney

Legal Representation

for Injured Motorcycle Riders in St. Louis

Motorcycle accidents are among the most severe types of traffic accidents on St. Louis roads. When a motorcycle crash occurs, riders often suffer serious injuries due to the lack of physical protection compared to occupants of passenger vehicles. At Niesen, McDonough & Niesen LLC, our St. Louis motorcycle accident attorney team represents injured motorcyclists and their families throughout St. Louis, St. Louis County, and surrounding Missouri communities.

As an experienced personal injury law firm, we understand how devastating a motorcycle crash can be physically, emotionally, and financially. Our attorneys work directly with each accident victim to pursue accountability and compensation under Missouri law, while handling aggressive insurance company tactics on their behalf.

When a Motorcycle Accident Claim May Be Filed

A motorcycle accident claim may be available when a rider is injured due to another party’s negligence or reckless behavior. Many motorcycle accidents are caused by drivers who fail to yield, follow too closely, or overlook motorcycles in traffic. Many motorcycle accidents result from:
  • Drivers failing to yield the right of way to motorcyclists
  • Unsafe left-turn or intersection collisions
  • Drivers following a motorcycle too closely
  • Speeding, distracted driving, or impaired driving
  • Commercial vehicle or truck accident impacts involving motorcycles
  • Road hazards, construction zones, or uneven pavement are dangerous to motorcycles
  • Rideshare drivers causing collisions with motorcycle riders
Because motorcycles offer little physical protection, even low-speed crashes can result in serious injury. Our attorneys carefully examine the accident report, analyze traffic and crash evidence, and identify all responsible parties to build a strong motorcycle accident case on behalf of injured riders.

Compensation Available After a Motorcycle Accident Injury

Motorcycle accident injuries are often severe and require extensive medical treatment. A successful personal injury claim may allow injured riders to recover compensation for both economic and non-economic losses.

Damages in a motorcycle accident injury case may include:

  • Emergency medical care, hospitalization, and rehabilitation
  • Ongoing treatment for motorcycle accident injuries
  • Lost wages and diminished future earning capacity
  • Pain, suffering, and loss of quality of life
  • Damage to the motorcycle and personal property
  • Long-term disability or permanent impairment

In cases involving a fatal motorcycle accident, surviving family members may pursue compensation through a wrongful death claim.

How Our Attorneys Build Strong Motorcycle Accident Cases

Motorcycle accident litigation requires a thorough understanding of both accident dynamics and insurance defense strategies. Our experienced motorcycle accident attorney team prepares every case as if it will proceed to trial.

Our approach includes:

  • Conducting a full investigation of the motorcycle crash
  • Reviewing police reports, medical records, and crash data
  • Consulting accident reconstruction and medical experts
  • Calculating the full value of the accident claim
  • Challenging unfair practices by insurance companies
  • Presenting compelling evidence on behalf of motorcycle accident victims

As dedicated personal injury lawyers, we do not allow insurers to minimize injuries or shift blame onto the rider.

Common Motorcycle Accident Injuries

Motorcyclists are especially vulnerable during collisions. Some of the common motorcycle accident injuries we see include:

  • Traumatic brain injuries and head trauma
  • Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
  • Broken bones and orthopedic injuries
  • Road rash and severe skin damage
  • Internal injuries and organ damage

Whether you are a motorcycle rider, passenger, or motorcycle accident victim, our attorneys fight to ensure injuries are fully documented and fairly valued.

Steps to Take After a Motorcycle Accident

After a Missouri motorcycle accident, protecting your legal rights begins immediately. Seek medical attention, document the accident scene if possible, avoid speaking with insurance adjusters, and contact an accident lawyer as soon as possible.

Early legal representation helps preserve evidence, manage communications with insurers, and strengthen your motorcycle accident claim from the start.
