Fair Oaks Motorcycle Accident Lawyer
Motorcyclists face unique dangers every time they hit the road. With little to shield them from the force of a crash, even a minor collision can lead to devastating injuries or death. If you or a loved one has been injured in a motorcycle crash in Texas, the Fair Oaks motorcycle accident lawyer at the Law Office of Israel Garcia is here to help you hold negligent drivers accountable and fight for the compensation you need to heal and rebuild.
Why Motorcycle Accidents Are So Dangerous
Even when motorcyclists follow all the rules of the road, they’re still at risk. Many drivers fail to notice motorcycles due to their smaller size—or worse, they act recklessly by speeding, tailgating, or turning without looking. The most common causes of motorcycle accidents include:
- Left-turn collisions by drivers who misjudge the rider’s speed or visibility
- Lane changes without checking blind spots
- Rear-end crashes at stoplights or intersections
- Drivers opening car doors into the path of a rider
- Distracted or impaired driving
Our legal team understands these patterns and knows how to build strong cases using accident reports, traffic footage, witness statements, and expert testimony.
Common Motorcycle Accident Injuries
Motorcycle crashes frequently result in catastrophic or life-altering injuries, such as:
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
- Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
- Severe road rash and burns
- Fractures and crushed limbs
- Internal organ damage
- Amputations
These injuries often require extensive treatment and rehabilitation. You shouldn’t have to carry that financial burden alone—especially if someone else was at fault.

Can I still file a claim if I wasn’t wearing a helmet?
Yes. While wearing a helmet is encouraged and may reduce injury severity, failing to wear one does not automatically bar you from seeking compensation. Texas law allows motorcyclists over age 21 to ride without a helmet under certain conditions. Insurance companies may try to use it against you, but we fight back with expert testimony and evidence of the other driver’s fault.
What if the driver says they didn’t see me?
“Failure to see” is no excuse. Drivers have a legal obligation to remain alert and aware of all road users, including motorcyclists. This defense is common, but it does not release them from liability. We’ll gather all available evidence—such as dash cams, accident reconstructions, and witness reports—to hold the negligent driver accountable.
Is there a time limit to file a motorcycle accident lawsuit in Texas?
Yes. In Texas, you generally have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury claim. However, it’s critical to start early—waiting can lead to lost evidence and weaker claims. Contacting a Fair Oaks motorcycle accident lawyer quickly helps preserve your right to compensation.
