Motorcycle Accident Attorney Winston-Salem
In an accident involving a car or truck, the occupants are protected by seatbelts, airbags, and other safety features. Even the vehicle itself can shield the occupants from the life-changing injuries that could occur if the occupant were ejected.
In a motorcycle accident, the victim is completely exposed – to the road, other vehicles, and stationary objects into which he or she can be thrown. Even when wearing a motorcycle helmet and other protective gear, the motorcyclist can suffer exponentially more severe injuries than those suffered by many other car accident victims.
At Comerford, Chilson, & Moser, our motorcycle accident lawyers offer sincere compassion and empathy to clients overcoming the devastation and aftermath of a serious or fatal motorcycle crash.

Recovering Injury Compensation Following a Motorcycle Crash
The cost of motorcycle accident-related injuries can be staggering, reaching hundreds of thousands of dollars in the days and weeks following the crash. If the victim sustains a catastrophic injury, the financial burden can be overwhelming.
Ongoing treatment expenses can include, but are not limited to:
- Medical treatments, surgeries
- Inpatient rehabilitation
- Long-term physical therapy
- Medications
- Medical supplies
- Vocational rehabilitation
These costs can quickly consume all the resources of the entire family. The key to getting these necessary expenses paid is to work with an experienced motorcycle accident attorney who can help you obtain the compensation you deserve.
Many people immediately place the blame for the crash on the motorcyclist, but an experienced attorney will know how to investigate the accidents and identify all potential sources of liability.
