If you or a loved one has been injured in a motorcycle accident, Grover Law Firm is here to help. We understand the unique challenges riders face and are dedicated to helping you receive the compensation you deserve. Our experienced team of motorcycle accident lawyers is committed to providing compassionate, effective legal representation every step of the way.

Motorcycle accidents often result in serious injuries due to the lack of physical protection compared to passenger vehicles. The carelessness of car, truck, and SUV drivers is frequently to blame. At Grover Law Firm, we are well-versed in navigating the legal system, investigating accidents, and negotiating with insurance companies.

These injuries can lead to significant medical expenses, lost income, and long-term disability. Our motorcycle accident attorneys work diligently to ensure all your losses are accounted for when pursuing a claim for damages.

How Our Motorcycle Accident Lawyers Can Help You Recover Damages

Our motorcycle accident lawyers in Calgary and Edmonton can help you recover damages by building a strong case to ensure you receive the compensation you deserve to make a full recovery and move forward following your accident. Our team can help with:
Investigating the accident to determine liability
Gathering and preserving evidence, including police reports, witness statements, and accident reconstruction analysis
Negotiating with insurance companies to reach a fair settlement
Preparing and presenting your case in court, if necessary
Ensuring your rights are protected throughout the legal process

Understanding Your Motorcycle Accident Claim

While many medical expenses are covered by the provincial health care system, employee benefits, or alternate insurance plans, not all costs are covered. Some uncovered costs that can add up quickly include physiotherapy, massages, and acupuncture.

If you can’t care for your child or participate in recreational activities you previously did, you and your motorcycle injury attorney may be able to make a claim. Sustaining such injuries can require you to take time off work or prevent you from returning altogether. In many cases, you can include a loss of income or loss of future earning potential in your claim for damages.

Frequently Asked
Questions

What steps should I take to protect my rights after a motorcycle accident?

To protect your rights after a motorcycle accident, it’s important to seek medical attention promptly, document the accident scene (take photos, gather information), avoid making statements to insurance companies without consulting with a lawyer, and contact an experienced motorcycle accident lawyer to discuss your legal options.
How is fault determined in a motorcycle accident case?

Determining fault in a motorcycle accident case involves gathering evidence, analyzing police reports, and interviewing witnesses. Factors such as traffic laws, road conditions, and driver behaviour are considered. Our lawyers have experience investigating motorcycle accidents and building strong cases to establish liability.
What role does insurance play in a motorcycle accident case?

Insurance coverage is a critical aspect of motorcycle accident cases. It can provide compensation for medical expenses, property damage, lost wages, and other losses. Our lawyers can help you understand your insurance coverage, navigate the claims process, and negotiate with insurance companies to ensure you receive a fair settlement.
What should I do immediately after a motorcycle accident?

Suppose you are involved in a motorcycle accident. In that case, it’s important to take the following steps: Ensure your safety and seek medical attention if needed, report the accident to the police, exchange information with the other driver(s) involved, gather evidence (e.g., photos, witness statements), and consult with an experienced motorcycle accident lawyer as soon as possible.
How much does it cost to hire a motorcycle accident lawyer?

Many motorcycle accident lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning that they only get paid if you win your case. The fee is typically a percentage of the compensation you recover.
How long do I have to file a motorcycle accident claim?

The time limit (statute of limitations) for filing a motorcycle accident claim varies depending on the jurisdiction and the specific circumstances of your case. It’s important to consult with an attorney as soon as possible to ensure that you don’t miss any deadlines.
What types of damages can I recover in a motorcycle accident claim?

In a motorcycle accident claim, you may be entitled to recover various types of damages, including medical expenses (past and future), lost income (past and future), pain and suffering, property damage (e.g., motorcycle repair or replacement), rehabilitation costs, and other out-of-pocket expenses.
What are the most common causes of motorcycle accidents?

Motorcycle accidents can occur for various reasons, but some common causes include driver inattention or distraction, failure to yield the right-of-way, speeding, impaired driving, and hazardous road conditions.
Am I entitled to any benefits from my own insurance company?

If you are the motorcycle operator or passenger involved in the accident, you can receive Section B no-fault benefits from your insurance company. If another vehicle has struck you, you can receive Section B no-fault benefits from their insurance company. You can obtain no-fault benefits regardless of who was responsible for the accident.

The benefits in Section B include up to $400/week for lost income for up to two years if the accident caused you to be disabled. You must have worked at least six months before the accident or been employed at the time. The benefits will also provide up to $50,000 for medical treatments and services required within two years if your insurance does not cover them.
What if I were injured in an accident which occurred outside of Alberta?

You should consult with a lawyer if the accident occurred outside of Alberta. Jurisdictions outside of Alberta have different claim-filing and reporting dates. You can lose your right to make a claim if you miss specific timelines. We support clients throughout Alberta, BC, Ontario, and the United States.
Should I get a lawyer for a motorcycle accident that was not my fault?

You should seek legal guidance and representation after any motorcycle accident. A motorcycle accident lawyer will ensure you receive full compensation and you’re not taken advantage of by insurance companies. We will also help determine the liability of other parties involved and take legal action if necessary.
What if I can’t afford an attorney for my motorcycle injury?

Many motorcycle accident victims worry about affording legal representation, but most personal injury lawyers, including the ones at Grover Law Firm, work on a contingency fee basis. This means you don’t pay any legal fees unless your case is successful.

By working with a lawyer on a contingency basis, you can focus on recovery while your attorney handles the complexities of your motorcycle accident case. They will investigate the accident, negotiate with insurance companies, and advocate for your rights to secure fair compensation.

At Grover Law Firm, we also offer a free consultation to evaluate your case and explain how the contingency fee arrangement works. Don’t let financial concerns stop you from pursuing the compensation you deserve. Contact us today for expert guidance on personal injury claims.
