Testimonials

Hiring Buckfire & Buckfire P.C. was the best decision I could have made for my Michigan motorcycle accident case.
Michael Smith
Waterford, MI

I have had several brain injury patients represented by attorney Daniel Buckfire and have had the occasion to meet with him... Daniel is the attorney that brain injured patients should turn to for the best possible legal representation.

When I call their office, I speak to the personal injury lawyer handling the case, not a paralegal or law clerk. This alone clearly separates them from 90% of other law firms handling injury cases.

Causes of Motorcycle Accident Injuries

Frequently, motorcycle accident injuries are caused by the negligence or carelessness of another driver. An often-overlooked fact is that other drivers do not see or pay attention to motorcycles. This results in a wide variety of car-motorcycle and truck-motorcycle accidents, including:

  • Cars rear-ending motorcycles
  • Cars or trucks failing to signal before changing lanes into an unseen motorcycle
  • Other vehicles making a right turn from the center lane and failing to see a motorcycle to their right
  • Trucks or cars forcing motorcycles into a guard rail
  • Drivers running a red light or stop sign without seeing the motorcycle

Motorcycles are comparatively lightweight, and riders, even with protective clothing and gear, are highly vulnerable. Catastrophic injuries are frequent outcomes of motorcycle accidents because of the difference in size and weight of the other vehicle involved in the accident. Wrongful death is frequent in motorcycle accidents. Riders also suffer motorcycle injury outcomes such as:
