Seguin Motorcycle Accident Lawyer
Riding a motorcycle is exhilarating, but a split-second of driver negligence can lead to life-altering consequences for riders. If you’ve been injured in a crash, an experienced Seguin motorcycle accident lawyer at the Law Office of Israel Garcia is ready to protect your rights, hold the at-fault driver accountable, and fight for the full compensation you deserve.
Why Motorcycle Accidents Happen in Seguin
Busy routes like I-10, SH 123, and Austin Street funnel traffic through Seguin every day. When drivers fail to respect motorcycles, serious collisions follow. Common causes include:
- Left-turn crashes when drivers misjudge an oncoming bike’s speed
- Distracted driving (texting, navigation apps, or infotainment screens)
- Speeding or aggressive lane changes that crowd riders out of their lane
- Tailgating or sudden braking in stop-and-go traffic
- Drunk or drug-impaired driving, especially on weekends and holidays
Any of these reckless acts can launch a rider off the bike at high speed, causing catastrophic injuries.
Injuries Commonly Suffered by Riders
Motorcycles offer little crash protection, leaving riders exposed to severe trauma such as:
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBI) and concussions, even with a helmet
- Spinal cord damage leading to partial or complete paralysis
- Multiple fractures in arms, legs, ribs, or hips
- Severe road rash, deep lacerations, and disfiguring scars
- Internal bleeding, collapsed lungs, or organ damage
We work with surgeons, rehabilitation specialists, and life-care planners to calculate the true cost of these injuries—today and for decades to come.
Who Can Be Held Liable?
Liability often starts with the driver who struck you, but our investigation looks deeper. We examine whether an employer is responsible for a company vehicle, whether a bar overserved a drunk driver, or whether a defective component on your motorcycle contributed to the crash. By preserving evidence such as traffic-camera video, helmet-cam footage, vehicle black-box data, and cell-phone records, we build a compelling case against every negligent party.

What should I do immediately after a motorcycle crash?
Call 911 and get medical care—adrenaline can mask serious injuries. If possible, photograph the scene, your bike, the other vehicle, and any visible injuries. Exchange information with witnesses and request the police report number. Then contact a motorcycle accident lawyer in Seguin before speaking with the at-fault driver’s insurer.
Can I still recover compensation if I wasn’t wearing a helmet?
Yes. Texas law allows adult riders to choose whether to wear a helmet (subject to certain insurance/training requirements). While not wearing one may affect the value of a head-injury claim, it does not bar recovery if the other driver’s negligence caused the crash. Our Seguin motorcycle accident lawyers will fight to limit any blame-shifting tactics.
How long do I have to file a claim?
Texas generally gives you two years from the collision date to file a personal-injury lawsuit, but evidence can disappear quickly—especially skid marks, surveillance video, and event-data-recorder information. Contact us as soon as possible so we can preserve critical proof and start building your case.
