Motorcycle Accident Lawyer in Florida – Fight for Your Rights


Protecting Motorcycle Riders in Boca Raton, Fort Lauderdale & Across Florida


Motorcycle accidents are often devastating, leaving riders with severe injuries and overwhelming medical bills. Unlike car occupants, motorcyclists lack physical protection, making them more vulnerable to serious or fatal injuries. At Lieberman Injury Law, we fight aggressively to protect the rights of injured riders across Florida, ensuring they receive the compensation they deserve. If you or a loved one has been injured in a motorcycle crash, our legal team is here to help.

Why Motorcycle Accident Claims Are Different

Motorcycle accident claims can be more complicated than other vehicle accidents. Insurance companies often unfairly blame riders, and Florida’s no-fault laws make compensation more difficult to obtain. Our team understands the challenges motorcyclists face and will fight to ensure you are treated fairly under the law.

Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcycle crashes often occur due to negligence by other drivers, road hazards, or defective parts. Some of the most common causes include:


  • Distracted Driving: Drivers using phones or adjusting in-car settings fail to see motorcyclists.
  • Failure to Yield: Many crashes occur when cars make left turns in front of motorcycles.
  • Speeding & Reckless Driving: Higher speeds reduce reaction times, increasing accident risks.
  • Road Hazards: Potholes, debris, and poorly maintained roads pose greater dangers for motorcycles.
  • Drunk or Impaired Drivers: Intoxicated drivers have reduced reaction times and poor judgment, putting motorcyclists at high risk.

Our team at Lieberman Injury Law will investigate your accident, determine fault, and build a strong case on your behalf.

Who Can Be Held Liable in a Motorcycle Crash?

Liability in a motorcycle accident can extend beyond just the other driver. We pursue compensation from all responsible parties, including:


  • Negligent Drivers: If a driver failed to see a motorcyclist, made a reckless maneuver, or drove under the influence.
  • Government Entities: If poorly maintained roads, missing signage, or hazardous conditions contributed to the accident.
  • Motorcycle or Parts Manufacturers: If defective brakes, tires, or other mechanical failures led to the crash.
  • Bars & Establishments (Dram Shop Liability): If a bar or restaurant overserved an intoxicated driver who later caused the accident.

  • Pain and Suffering – Compensation for physical pain, emotional trauma, and PTSD.
  • Motorcycle Repairs & Property Damage – Cost of repairs or replacement of your motorcycle.

What to Do After a Motorcycle Accident

If you’ve been involved in a motorcycle crash, taking the right steps can protect your legal claim:

  1. Seek Immediate Medical Attention: Even if injuries seem minor, documentation is critical.
  2. Report the Accident: File a police report and ensure all details are documented.
  3. Gather Evidence: Take photos of your injuries, the accident scene, and vehicle damage.
  4. Do NOT Talk to Insurance Adjusters: Avoid giving recorded statements; insurers may use your words against you.
  5. Contact a Motorcycle Accident Lawyer: A skilled attorney can protect your rights and fight for full compensation.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Can I still recover compensation if I wasn’t wearing a helmet?

    Yes. Florida law does not require helmets for riders over 21 with at least $10,000 in medical insurance, but not wearing a helmet may impact your compensation if head injuries occurred.

  • How long do I have to file a claim?

    In Florida, you have two years from the accident date to file a personal injury lawsuit.

  • What if the driver who hit me was uninsured?

    You may be able to recover damages through uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage (UM/UIM) or by suing the at-fault party directly.

  • How much does it cost to hire a lawyer?

    We work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless we win your case.
