Motorcycle Accident Lawyers in Nevada

Protecting riders’ rights and fighting bias after serious crashes.

Why Motorcycle Accident Cases Are Unique

Motorcyclists face risks that drivers in passenger vehicles don’t. Even with helmets and protective gear, riders are vulnerable to catastrophic injuries when other drivers fail to share the road. To make matters worse, insurance companies often stereotype riders as reckless, even when the crash was caused by someone else’s negligence.

At Cogburn Davidson Injury Lawyers, we know the truth: most motorcycle accidents are preventable and caused by careless drivers. With offices in Las Vegas and Henderson, we represent motorcycle accident victims across Nevada, preparing every case for trial to secure justice.

Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents

Many motorcycle crashes occur because drivers fail to respect riders on the road. Frequent causes include:

Cars making unsafe left turns in front of motorcycles
Drivers failing to yield at intersections
Speeding and reckless driving
Distracted driving, including texting or app use
Drunk or drug-impaired driving
Following too closely or unsafe lane changes
Hazardous road conditions and poor maintenance

Motorcycle Accidents in Nevada Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a lawyer if the other driver was clearly at fault?

Yes. Even when liability is clear, insurance companies often reduce payouts by blaming riders or undervaluing injuries.

Can I still recover damages if I wasn’t wearing a helmet?

Possibly. Not wearing a helmet may reduce compensation, but it does not automatically bar recovery. Every case is different.

Do you represent riders outside of Las Vegas?

Yes. With offices in Las Vegas and Henderson, we represent motorcycle accident victims across Nevada, including Reno, Mesquite, and rural areas.
