    Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents in Los Angeles

    Understanding the factors that contribute to motorcycle collisions can help riders stay safe on LA's busy roads.

    Left-Turn Collisions

    The most common motorcycle accident occurs when vehicles make left turns in front of motorcycles, often due to drivers failing to see the approaching bike.

    Distracted Driving

    Drivers using phones, texting, or other distractions often fail to notice motorcycles, leading to devastating collisions on LA's busy streets.

    Blind Spot Accidents

    Motorcycles can easily disappear in a vehicle's blind spot, especially during lane changes or merging on freeways and busy intersections.

    Road Hazards

    Potholes, debris, oil spills, and construction zones pose particular dangers to motorcyclists who have less stability than four-wheeled vehicles.

    Door Zone Accidents

    Vehicle occupants opening doors without checking for motorcycles create sudden obstacles that can cause serious accidents in urban areas.

    Speeding & Reckless Driving

    Excessive speed by either motorcyclists or other drivers reduces reaction time and increases the severity of injuries in collisions.

    Impaired Driving

    Drunk or drug-impaired drivers pose significant threats to motorcyclists, particularly during evening hours and near entertainment districts.

    Weather Conditions

    Rain, wind, and poor visibility conditions make motorcycle riding more dangerous and increase the likelihood of accidents on slippery roads.

    Were You Injured Due to These Factors?

    If you've been injured in a motorcycle accident caused by another driver's negligence, you deserve compensation. Yarijanian & Associates, PLC has extensive experience with all types of motorcycle accident cases in Los Angeles and can help you understand your legal options.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Get answers to common questions about motorcycle accident claims in Los Angeles.

    How much does it cost to hire a motorcycle accident lawyer in Los Angeles?

    At Yarijanian & Associates, PLC, we work on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay nothing upfront. We only collect a fee if we secure compensation for you. The fee is typically a percentage of your settlement amount, which will be clearly explained during your free initial consultation. This arrangement ensures our interests are aligned with yours—we only get paid when you do.

    What if I was partially at fault for the motorcycle accident?

    California follows a "pure comparative negligence" rule, which means you can still recover compensation even if you were partially at fault for the motorcycle accident. However, your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you are found to be 20% at fault for speeding, you can still recover 80% of your damages.

    Our attorneys are skilled at minimizing your assigned percentage of fault through thorough investigation and strategic presentation of evidence showing the other driver's negligence.

    How long do I have to file a motorcycle accident lawsuit in California?

    In California, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims, including motorcycle accidents, is generally two years from the date of the accident. For property damage claims, you have three years. However, if your claim is against a government entity, you must file a claim within six months.

    It's important to consult with an attorney as soon as possible after a motorcycle accident to ensure all deadlines are met and evidence is preserved. Waiting too long could result in losing your right to seek compensation.

    Should I accept the insurance company's first settlement offer?

    We strongly advise against accepting an insurance company's first settlement offer without legal consultation. Initial offers are typically much lower than what your motorcycle accident claim is actually worth. Insurance adjusters often have anti-motorcycle bias and are trained to minimize payouts.

    Our experienced motorcycle accident attorneys can evaluate the true value of your claim and negotiate for an appropriate settlement that covers all your damages, both current and future.

    What types of damages can I recover after a motorcycle accident in Los Angeles?

    After a motorcycle accident in Los Angeles, you may be eligible to recover various types of damages, including:

    Economic damages: Medical expenses (past and future), lost wages and earning capacity, motorcycle repair or replacement, rehabilitation costs, and other out-of-pocket expenses.

    Non-economic damages: Pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life, disfigurement, and loss of consortium (impact on marital relationship).

    Punitive damages: In cases involving extreme negligence or intentional misconduct by the other driver, punitive damages may be awarded to punish the wrongdoer.

    Our attorneys work diligently to identify and document all applicable damages to maximize your compensation for your motorcycle accident injuries.

    How do I prove the other driver was at fault in my motorcycle accident?

    Proving fault in a motorcycle accident requires establishing that the other driver breached their duty of care and that this breach caused your injuries. Common ways to prove fault include:

    Traffic violations: Evidence that the other driver violated traffic laws, such as running a red light, failing to yield, or making an unsafe lane change.

    Witness testimony: Statements from eyewitnesses who saw the accident occur and can testify about what they observed.

    Physical evidence: Damage to vehicles, skid marks, debris patterns, and photographs of the accident scene.

    Expert reconstruction: Accident reconstruction experts can analyze the evidence and provide professional opinions about how the accident occurred.

    Our team conducts thorough investigations and works with experts to build strong cases proving the other driver's fault while overcoming any anti-motorcycle bias.
