Motorcycles have the exact same rights as all other vehicles on the road. However, motorcycle riders are at higher risk for serious injuries when careless drivers cause auto accidents. Assuming the risk of riding a motorcycle is not the same as assuming responsibility for the damages sustained in accidents caused by SUV and truck drivers. At the Columbus law offices of Kitrick, Lewis, and Harris, we have been protecting the rights of motorcycle accident victims throughout Southern and Central Ohio for over twenty years.

Traumatic Brain Injury
Even motorcycle riders who wear helmets are susceptible to traumatic brain injuries. Motorcycle drivers are less visible to drivers, even in full daylight. Traumatic brain injuries can happen even if a motorcycle rider is doing everything correctly and wearing a helmet. Trauma to the head may take months to show itself, but the sooner you contact an experience lawyer, the more they can do to help.
