How Your Motorcycle Accident Case Works
When you have been injured in a motorcycle accident, it is important to have a lawyer that understands the difference in impact to you as an unrestrained rider, vs. someone who is in a motor vehicle. It is important to have someone on your side who believes in your freedom to ride and is willing to fight for your safety on the road.

LEGAL REFERENCE
Know Your Deadline: Colorado's 3-year auto accident filing deadline (C.R.S. § 13-80-101(1)(n)) applies to motorcycle crashes as motor vehicle accidents.
Watch for Bias: Colorado's modified comparative negligence rule (C.R.S. § 13-21-111) means you can't recover if you're 50% or more at fault. Insurers routinely assume riders are at fault before looking at the facts - we push back on that bias directly.
COLORADO MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT FAQs
Does Colorado's helmet law affect my injury claim?
Colorado does not require helmets for riders over 18, so simply not wearing one generally isn't held against you the way it might be in states with mandatory helmet laws. What matters is what caused the crash and what caused your specific injuries.
How is a motorcycle accident claim different from a regular car accident claim in Colorado?
The same 3-year deadline and comparative negligence rules apply, but insurance adjusters often carry an unfair bias against riders. We spend extra time building objective evidence - police reports, witness statements, and scene reconstruction - to counter that bias from the outset.
What if the other driver says they never saw me?
That's one of the most common excuses in motorcycle cases, and it's rarely a valid legal defense. Drivers are required to watch for all traffic, and we build your case around what a reasonably attentive driver should have seen.
