Overview

Motorcycle accidents often leave riders facing some of the most serious injuries on the road. Even when riders do everything right, they have little protection against distracted drivers, unsafe lane changes, or drivers who simply fail to see them. At MacGillis Law Group, we represent injured motorcyclists and their families across Wisconsin. We take a personal, straightforward approach focused on helping riders protect their rights, understand their options, and move forward after a serious crash.

Common Questions

About Motorcycle Accidents Cases

What should I do after a motorcycle accident?

keyboard_arrow_down
Seek medical attention immediately, document the scene if possible, avoid repairing or disposing of damaged gear, and speak with an attorney before accepting a settlement offer.

What if the driver says they did not see the motorcycle?

keyboard_arrow_down
Drivers still have a responsibility to maintain a proper lookout and safely share the road with motorcyclists. “I didn’t see them” does not excuse negligent driving.

Can I still bring a claim if I was not wearing a helmet?

keyboard_arrow_down
Wisconsin law and the specific facts of the case can affect how these issues are evaluated. It is important to speak with an attorney about your individual situation.

Why are motorcycle accident injuries often more severe?

keyboard_arrow_down
Motorcyclists have far less physical protection than occupants of passenger vehicles, which often leads to more serious injuries during a collision.

What compensation may be available after a motorcycle accident?

keyboard_arrow_down
Depending on the case, compensation may include medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, rehabilitation costs, future care needs, and other damages related to the crash.
