New Jersey Motorcycle Accident Lawyer
Motorcycle accidents in New Jersey often lead to devastating injuries-and insurance companies are quick to place blame on the rider. At the Law Offices of Gregg A. Williams, we know the challenges bikers face after a crash, and we're here to help.
Led by a skilled NJ motorcycle accident attorney with real experience advocating for riders, our firm serves clients across Middlesex County and the state. Whether your crash happened in East Brunswick, Old Bridge, or on a major highway like the Turnpike or Route 1, we'll fight for the compensation you deserve.
The Risks for New Jersey Motorcyclists
Even the most cautious motorcyclists can be seriously injured when other drivers don't share the road. Riders are often overlooked, cut off, or struck by vehicles making sudden maneuvers.
New Jersey law requires motorcyclists to wear helmets-and while that protects your safety, not wearing a helmet doesn't automatically disqualify you from seeking compensation. If you were injured in a motorcycle crash, our lawyers will evaluate the full situation and protect your rights.
Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents
Most motorcycle crashes in NJ are caused by negligent drivers-not riders. Some of the most common causes include:
Cars turning left across a motorcyclist's path
Drivers failing to check blind spots before changing lanes
Vehicles following too closely or tailgating bikes
Distracted driving (texting, phone use)
Road hazards like potholes, loose gravel, or poor signage
We often represent clients in cases involving a motorcycle hit by a car turning left, or a vehicle failing to yield to a motorcycle. These cases demand prompt investigation and skilled legal representation.
Unique Challenges in Motorcycle Injury Cases
Motorcycle accident claims are different from typical car accident cases. Riders face several unique hurdles:
Bias from insurers or jurors, assuming the rider was reckless
Lack of PIP coverage under standard NJ auto insurance (motorcycles are often excluded)
Severe injuries requiring long-term care, which insurers may try to undervalue
Our firm knows how to address these issues directly-by presenting clear, fact-driven evidence that shifts the focus away from stereotypes and onto the true cause of the crash.
Maximizing Compensation for Bikers
Motorcycle accident victims often suffer severe, life-altering injuries. We fight to recover full compensation for:
- Emergency room visits and ongoing medical care
- Surgery, rehabilitation, and long-term treatment
- Lost wages and reduced earning ability
- Pain and suffering
- Repair or replacement of your motorcycle
Tip for NJ riders: Your uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage can be critical after a crash. If you're unsure what protection your policy provides, we can review it for free and offer recommendations.
