Motorcycle Accident Lawyer in Marin County, CA

Motorcycle accidents in Marin County can be life-altering events that leave riders facing serious injuries, mounting medical bills, and uncertain futures. When the unthinkable happens on Marin County's scenic but often dangerous roads, having knowledgeable legal representation becomes essential for protecting your rights and securing the compensation you deserve.

With over 40 years of experience helping injured motorcyclists, Moseley Collins Law provides dedicated advocacy for riders throughout Marin County. Our team understands the unique challenges that motorcycle accident survivors face and works tirelessly to ensure fair treatment from insurance companies and responsible parties.

Marin County's combination of winding coastal highways, mountain roads, and busy urban thoroughfares creates unique risks for motorcyclists. When accidents occur, riders typically face more severe injuries than occupants of passenger vehicles, alongside unfair bias from insurance adjusters who may attempt to place undue blame on the motorcyclist.

A motorcycle accident lawyer from Moseley Collins Law understands these dynamics and knows how to counter insurance tactics that minimize legitimate claims. Our approach focuses on thorough investigation, careful documentation of injuries and damages, and aggressive negotiation to secure maximum compensation.

Understanding the primary causes of motorcycle accidents helps both in prevention and in establishing liability after a collision occurs:

1. Driver inattention and failure to see motorcyclists
2. Unsafe lane changes and turning without signaling
3. Distracted driving (texting, phone use)
4. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs
5. Road hazards including potholes and debris
6. Dangerous weather conditions, particularly fog and rain
7. Mechanical failures or defective motorcycle parts

Certain roads in Marin County see higher rates of motorcycle accidents due to their design, traffic patterns, or environmental factors:

• Highway 101, particularly near the Marin-Sonoma county line
• Sir Francis Drake Boulevard through Samuel P. Taylor State Park
• Panoramic Highway near Mount Tamalpais
• Lucas Valley Road
• Shoreline Highway (Highway 1), especially along coastal sections
• Novato Boulevard
• Point Reyes-Petaluma Road
• Nicasio Valley Road

These routes combine scenic beauty with potential hazards including sharp curves, changing elevation, and limited visibility, making proper riding technique and vigilance essential.

Motorcycle accidents frequently result in serious injuries that require extensive medical treatment and rehabilitation:

• Traumatic brain injuries, even with helmet use
• Spinal cord injuries and potential paralysis
• Road rash and severe skin abrasions
• Broken bones, particularly legs, arms, and ribs
• Internal organ damage
• Nerve damage
• Facial injuries and dental trauma
• Psychological trauma including PTSD

The physical, emotional, and financial toll of these injuries can be devastating, highlighting the importance of securing fair compensation through proper legal representation.

We work to secure and preserve vital evidence including:

• Accident scene photos and measurements

Complex motorcycle accident cases often benefit from professional analysis by:

3. Document the scene if you're able (photos, videos, notes)
