Nashville Motorcycle Accidents
Motorcycle accidents can be quite scary, especially when they involve a negligent motorist. The latest vehicle mile travel data show motorcyclists are about 27 times as likely as passenger car occupants to die in a motor vehicle traffic crash and six times as likely to be injured, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Motorcyclists in Nashville have to always be on guard and drive defensively, because there are many cases where a motorist may not see them. The majority of multi-vehicle motorcycle crashes generally are caused when other drivers simply didn’t see the motorcyclist. And because motorcyclists are more exposed than passenger car occupants, they are far more likely to receive severe or even fatal injuries as a result of the accident.
At Morgan & Morgan, our motorcycle accident attorneys have the experience and resources needed to successfully handle cases involving serious and fatal motorcycle accidents. Our Nashville attorneys have extensive experience thoroughly preparing cases for trial, gathering persuasive and supportive evidence during investigations, and only accepting settlements if they are in our client’s best interests.
If negotiations for a settlement fail, our Nashville trial lawyers are prepared to take our cases to court to recover proper compensation for our clients. While prior results cannot guarantee future outcome, our Nashville motorcycle accident attorneys have a history of successfully recovering multi-million dollar results to help our clients regain financial stability.
If you or a loved one has been seriously hurt in a motorcycle accident, you may be able to file a lawsuit and recover the money you would have otherwise lost in expenses and bills.

Common Motorcycle Accident Injuries
Motorcyclists have little protection from the elements and other vehicles; therefore, injuries sustained in an accident can be serious and life-threatening and may include the following:
- Bone fractures;
- Spinal cord injuries;
- Brain damage;
- Loss of limbs;
- Death;
- Severe head trauma;
- Neck injuries
- Disfigurement; and
- Paralysis.
The Motorcycle Lawsuit Process
The Investigation
During the investigation, your attorney will collect evidence to help demonstrate that the other party was negligent in causing the crash. A driver may be acting negligently if he or she:
- Swerves in front of a biker;
- Cuts off a motorcyclist at an intersection;
- Exceeds the posted speed limit;
- Fails to yield when appropriate;
- Tailgates;
- Drives under the influence;
- Turns left into a motorcyclist’s path; and
- Fails to be aware of their surroundings.
Your attorney may gather proof of the other party’s negligence by:
- Reviewing Nashville police reports and photographs;
- Collecting witness statements;
- Establishing you followed all motorcycle regulations;
- Analyzing medical reports with medical experts to establish your injuries and how they were most likely
- Recreating the crash with the assistance of accident re-creationist specialists.
Evaluating and Determining Damages
In handling your motorcycle accident lawsuit, your attorney will determine the types of compensable damages you sustained as a result of the accident, and the amount of compensation you will need to cover your losses. Damages include, but are not limited to, the following:
- The cost of medical treatment for injuries;
- Lost wages, if the victim is temporarily or permanently unable to continue working;
- Property damages, such as the cost to repair or replace the motorcycle;
- Pain and suffering; and
- Punitive damages.
