There is an unjust misconception that motorcycle riders are reckless thrill seekers. In our experience, this is not typically the case. Because they understand how vulnerable they are to the effects of a motorcycle collision, most riders operate with the utmost caution for their safety and that of others.
It’s motor vehicle drivers and other negligent parties who typically cause riders harm. Those in larger, heavier motor vehicles often endanger riders by:
It’s a fact that drivers of cars, SUVs, and trucks are often responsible for motorcycle collisions, but these are not the only potentially at-fault parties. Local, state, or federal governments may also be liable. For instance, we might find that a motorcycle accident on Interstate 10 resulted from a failure by local, state, or federal authorities to maintain safe road conditions.
Each client and collision is unique. That’s why Smiley Law Firm will immediately begin gathering evidence and drawing conclusions about who caused your motorcycle collision in Metairie. Do not wait to speak with our team, as the need to secure evidence is just one of many reasons to unleash us right away.
There is nothing pleasant about being in a motorcycle accident. We have seen how mentally drained, physically impaired, and generally burnt out many accident survivors are. We get it.

We have seen how riders and attorneys who give the benefit of the doubt to insurance companies often get taken advantage of. While insurance companies are capable of handling claims in good faith, many do not. You will be smart to have an experienced attorney from Smiley Law Firm representing you, as we will:
We call this “establishing liability.” Your lawyer will first determine whose negligence caused the crash. We can then figure out which insurance company or other liable party is responsible for the cost of your damages.
Our team will document every single one of your accident-related damages, perhaps with:
We leave no stone unturned when proving the cost of a motorcycle wreck.
We don’t subscribe to the idea of an easy settlement. We believe in fair settlements; nothing less is acceptable at Smiley Law Firm.

Some common types of recoverable damages in motorcycle accident cases are:
Our personalized representation means we uncover, document, and seek compensation for the damages you face. We don’t take a cookie-cutter approach to documenting damages because no two riders have the same losses.
Once again, we offer our condolences and support if you are grappling with a recent loss. While such losses cause indefinite harm, it is possible to get some measure of justice. We want to help, and we will seek compensation for any:
