Determining Liability in a Motorcycle Accident in League City
There is nothing quite like hitting the road to explore all of Galveston County on the back of a bike. Whether you enjoy the speed on Interstate 45 or the views of the water along Bayshore Park and FM 646 Rd, you have the right to travel safely.
One of the most important tasks our motorcycle accident lawyer in League City completes is a full investigation into who is at fault. To do this, we need to consider what caused your accident:
- Speeding drivers
- Drivers not paying attention to the road
- A failure to yield or provide the right of way to you
- Intersection accidents where the car driver did not see you
- Dooring accidents
- Poorly maintained roadways
- Aggressive driving
- Intoxication
By gathering this information, we will build a clear claim for you, one that presents evidence of the mistakes others made that led to your current situation.
Our motorcycle accident attorney in League City has handled numerous cases where proving fault requires extensive research and investigation. We have the team and tenacity to get it done for you. Review our FAQs for more information.
Seeking Compensation for Your Losses After a Motorcycle Accident
Victims of motorcycle accidents caused by others have the right to seek compensation for the losses they have suffered from the at-fault party. To do so, we first must demonstrate they are negligent by showing that the party owed you a duty of care, they failed in that duty of care, which led specifically to the accident and your injuries.
To achieve this, our lawyer will:
- Gather evidence that identifies all parties at fault. This could include the driver, their employer, the city, or third parties involved in the accident.
- Evaluate your accident injuries and other losses to maximize the compensation claim we can present, and back that up with evidence the insurance company cannot refute
- Negotiate with the insurance company. We answer their questions so you do not have to talk to or deal with them. This eliminates the risk that you will be taken advantage of throughout this case.
In most situations, this results in payment of what you are owed in a settlement from the at-fault driver’s insurance company. If, for any reason, they are not willing to provide fair compensation or are taking too long to move through the process, our legal team will file a lawsuit against them on your behalf. Our experienced trial attorneys at Lowe Law will go to court and fight for fair compensation.
Statute of Limitations in Texas
To seek a lawsuit against the at-fault party, we must act within the state’s statute of limitations. Under Texas Civil Practice & Remedies Code §16.003, you have two years from the date of the accident to seek a lawsuit in court against the at-fault party. If you are unable to act within that timeframe, you eliminate your ability to recover damages.

- Medical expenses from the accident and through your recovery
- All expected future medical costs, such as for future surgeries or ongoing therapy
- Loss of income from being unable to go to work during your recovery
