Legal Help for Injured Riders in Everett

Motorcycle riders are uniquely vulnerable in a crash. Without the protection of a vehicle frame, airbags, or seatbelts, even low-speed collisions can result in severe injuries. At Park Chenaur Injury Lawyers, our experienced motorcycle accident attorneys in Everett understand the complexities of these cases and know how to stand up to insurance companies that try to downplay rider injuries.

Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents in Everett

Everett motorcycle crashes often result from negligent or reckless behavior by other drivers. Common causes include:

  • Failure to yield: Drivers turning left at intersections often fail to see motorcyclists.
  • Unsafe lane changes: Drivers who don’t check blind spots or signal can collide with a passing motorcycle.
  • Rear-end collisions: Motorcycles can be struck from behind at stoplights or in traffic—often with devastating results.
  • Speeding: Excessive speed reduces a driver’s reaction time and increases crash severity.
  • Poor road conditions: Potholes, gravel, and uneven pavement are far more dangerous for motorcycles than cars.
  • Bad weather: Rain, fog, and ice make braking and visibility more difficult, increasing the risk of a crash.
  • Impaired driving: Alcohol or drug use impairs judgment, coordination, and reaction time—frequent factors in serious motorcycle accidents.

Determining Fault in a Motorcycle Accident

Establishing liability is key to recovering compensation. In many cases, multiple parties may share fault:

  • Negligent drivers: Failing to yield, driving aggressively, or breaking traffic laws can make a motorist liable.
  • Government entities: If poor road conditions contributed to your crash, the city or state agency responsible for maintenance may be held accountable.
  • Motorcycle manufacturers: A defective bike or part (e.g., tires, brakes, or steering systems) could make the manufacturer liable under product liability laws.

Our Everett motorcycle accident attorneys will investigate every aspect of your crash—using accident reconstruction, witness interviews, and expert analysis to prove fault.

Common Motorcycle Accident Injuries

Motorcycle crashes often result in serious, long-term injuries that require extensive care. Common injuries include:

  • Traumatic brain injuries (TBI): Even with a helmet, riders can suffer life-altering head trauma.
  • Spinal cord injuries: These can result in full or partial paralysis.
  • Broken bones: High-impact crashes frequently result in multiple fractures.
  • Road rash: Sliding on asphalt can tear skin, cause infection, and leave permanent scarring.
  • Internal injuries: Organs may be damaged during impact or from broken bones.
  • Joint damage: Hips, knees, wrists, and shoulders are commonly injured in motorcycle wrecks.

We work with medical experts to fully understand your injury, recovery needs, and the long-term impact on your life.

Staying Safe on Your Motorcycle

While you can’t control other drivers, you can take steps to reduce your risk:

  • Wear protective gear: Helmets, gloves, jackets, and boots offer critical protection in a crash.
  • Stay visible: Use reflective clothing and always keep your headlight on—even during the day.
  • Avoid blind spots: Don’t linger beside larger vehicles that may not see you.
  • Follow traffic laws: Obey speed limits, signals, and right-of-way rules.
  • Stay alert: Constantly scan for potential hazards, especially at intersections and during lane changes.

No matter how cautious you are, accidents still happen. If they do, we’re here to help.

Statute of Limitations for Motorcycle Accident Claims

In Washington, you generally have three years from the date of the motorcycle crash to file a personal injury lawsuit, as outlined in RCW § 4.16.080. If you miss this deadline, you may lose your right to seek compensation entirely.

Our advice: Contact Park Chenaur Injury Lawyers in Everett as soon as possible so we can protect your claim and preserve critical evidence.

Highly recommend! I was in a car accident in November of 2023 and my insurance didn’t do much to help me so I contacted Park Chenaur Law to see if I can get someone that will help me out.

I was in a car accident and tried to deal with the other insurance company on my own. The person I was dealing with was very aggressive and not easy to work with.

In the summer of 2022, I found myself in a stressful situation after a car accident.  Despite it not being my fault, dealing with insurance was intimidating.  A friend recommended Parks Chenaur & Associates LLP, and it turned out to be a lifesaver.  They not only guided me through the insurance process but ...
