Motorcycle Accidents: 

Despite the best efforts of experienced riders, motorcycle accidents and the accompanying injuries are often caused by drivers failing to locate the motorcycle and providing the proper distance for maneuvering, failing to yield the right of way to motorcyclists, or other failures of obedience to traffic laws. Unfortunately, motorcycle injuries are often more serious than auto accident injuries because motorcycles provide less protection than a car or truck. Even with the proper protective clothing and headgear, a motorcycle accident can result in serious, permanent, and debilitating injuries. At the Law Offices of Gonzales & Poirier, PLLC, our experienced lawyers handle a wide variety of motorcycle related injury cases. If you are injured on a motorcycle because of the negligence of another driver, it is important to act quickly to protect your rights.
