Rebuilding After a Motorcycle Accident Injury
A serious motorcycle accident can change your life in an instant. Unlike occupants of enclosed vehicles, motorcycle riders have little protection in a crash, which often results in catastrophic injuries such as traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, multiple fractures, or permanent disability. In addition to the physical pain, victims may face extensive medical treatment, rehabilitation, time away from work, and emotional trauma.
If you or a loved one has been injured in a motorcycle accident caused by someone else’s negligence, you may have a personal injury claim under Missouri or Kansas law. At Kendall Law Group, we understand how overwhelming this time can be. Our Kansas City motorcycle accident trial attorneys are here to help you take the first steps toward recovery. While you focus on healing, we handle the legal and financial aspects of your case. We are committed to helping you pursue the compensation you need for medical expenses, lost wages, future care, and the personal toll the injury has taken on your life.
The Importance of Skilled Legal Representation
Motorcycle accident cases present unique legal challenges. Insurance companies often attempt to unfairly blame motorcyclists for crashes, even when the other driver was clearly at fault. At the same time, the severity of injuries in these collisions often leads to substantial claims, making insurers more aggressive in their efforts to limit compensation. These factors make it critical to have a legal team that understands how to protect your rights and pursue a fair outcome.
The trial attorneys at Kendall Law Group are prepared to stand up for injured riders throughout the Kansas City metropolitan area. We conduct a thorough investigation of the crash, gather key evidence, and work with medical professionals and accident reconstruction specialists when needed. Our team handles all communication with insurance companies and remains prepared to take your case to trial if a fair settlement cannot be reached. Our goal is to help you move forward with the financial and legal support you need after a life-changing injury.

Tips to Keep You Safe
It is no secret that having an accident while riding a motorcycle is far more dangerous than being in a car accident. More than 80% of all reported motorcycle crashes result in injury or death, according to the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration.
According to government data, motorcycles make up only 3 percent of registered vehicles but accounted for 15% of all traffic fatalities in 2017. Fatalities among riders and passengers have more than doubled since 1997.
There are some things you can do to improve your safety while riding a bike. By far, the most important thing is to always wear a helmet.
Here is some information to help you pick the right helmet:
According to the National Safety Council, here are other things you can do in addition to wearing a helmet.

- Choose a bike that fits you; "supersport bikes" have driver death rates about four times that of cruisers or standard bikes, according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety
- Invest in antilock brakes
- New riders should take a motorcycle safety course, and experienced riders should take refresher courses after being off their bikes
for a while - Know the rules of the road
- Be aware that riding with a passenger requires considerably more skill
- Never drink and ride
- Drive defensively, especially at intersections, where half of
all collisions occur - Watch for hazards like potholes, manhole covers, oil slicks, puddles, debris, railroad tracks, and gravel
- Assume you are invisible to other motorists and position yourself
to be seen - Use headlights day and night
- Be courteous; don't weave in and out of lanes or ride on the shoulder or between lanes
- Don't speed
- Wear bright and/or reflective clothing that is durable and boots that cover the ankles
- Wear goggles and glasses or use a face shield that is ventilated to prevent fogging, and make sure it's clear if riding at night

A case we handled several years ago highlighted the dangers of motorcycle riding. Our client’s husband was a 72-year-old man who was on a large cruiser bike, had the headlight on, was wearing a helmet, and obeyed all of the traffic laws. A man driving a commercial vehicle decided to make a right turn from the middle lane of traffic and clipped the back of the bike. The man on the bike fell and landed on the street, dying of a brain hemorrhage a short time later. He did everything right and still lost his life. We were able to obtain for his widow a $3 million policy limits settlement for his tragic death.
