Do I Have a Motorcycle Accident Case?
Everyone has a legal responsibility to follow the rules of the road when they operate any vehicle. A motorist behaves negligently when they fail to live up to this responsibility, and they become liable for any accidents their negligence causes. In other words, if you suffered injuries in a motorcycle collision caused by another driver’s negligence, you likely have a case for compensation.
Types of negligent driving that can cause motorcycle crashes and lead to personal injury claims include:
- Excessive speeding
- Distracted driving
- Fatigued driving
- Reckless driving
- Driving while under the influence of drugs or alcohol
- Unsafe lane changes
- Following too closely
- Failing to yield
- Failing to observe traffic signs or signals
How Long Do I Have to File a Motorcycle Accident Lawsuit in Texas?
In Texas, you generally have a two-year statute of limitations to file a motorcycle accident lawsuit. This means you must file your claim within two years from the date of the collision. If you don't file within this timeframe, you will almost certainly lose your right to pursue compensation.
However, a different timeline applies in wrongful death cases, where the two-year period begins on the date of the victim’s passing, not the date of the accident. This distinction is crucial and can affect the viability of a claim, especially if a loved one passes away days or weeks after the crash.
Two years may seem like plenty of time, but you should still seek legal advice as soon as possible. The sooner you contact our team at Fight My Injury, the more time we have to investigate your case, gather and preserve important evidence before it disappears, and interview witnesses while their memories are still fresh. By acting quickly, you can put us in the best possible position to build a strong case for you and fight for the full compensation you deserve.

What Types of Compensation Can I Recover in a Motorcycle Accident Case?
When you suffer injuries in a motorcycle collision caused by negligence, we can help you seek compensation for both economic and non-economic damages. The key difference between economic and non-economic damages is that one compensates you for quantifiable financial losses while the other compensates you for intangible losses.
To recover economic damages, we can present objective documentation that shows the financial costs you have incurred because of the accident. These are the costs that have a specific dollar value. Non-economic damages are subjective and do not come with bills or receipts, so we must build a compelling case to show the true impact they have had on your life.
Our motorcycle accident attorneys can fight to get you just compensation for all economic and non-economic damages, including:
- Medical expenses
- Lost wages and earning capacity
- Property damage
- Pain and suffering
- Mental anguish
- Disfigurement
- Loss of enjoyment of life
Punitive damages are only rarely awarded in scenarios where there’s clear and convincing evidence that the defendant acted with fraud, malice, or gross negligence. For example, if we have evidence that a motorist deliberately swerved to strike your motorcycle, we could potentially seek punitive damages, which are designed to punish the defendant and discourage similar behavior in the future.
We can help simplify the sometimes-overwhelming process of seeking fair compensation after a motorcycle accident that wasn’t your fault. Call (832) 753-7961 or contact us online today.
