Our Denver accident attorneys can get you on the road to recovery.
“Share the road!” Riders, cyclists, motorcycle accident attorneys and the victims they represent wish this courtesy were extended by all drivers. Sadly, we know this isn't the case.
If you recently survived a motorcycle crash, you're one of the lucky ones.
The Colorado State Patrol reports that motorcycle fatalities have doubled in the last decade, and motorcyclists are 34 times more likely than passenger vehicle occupants to die in a crash. If the accident led to a fatality, the claim then becomes a wrongful death case. Even if injuries were not fatal, the healing process may take months, if not years, of costly medical treatment.
Recovery can certainly take its toll, both financially and emotionally.
An experienced motorcycle attorney can help you obtain the compensation you need to cover medical treatment, lost wages or even burial expenses.
If another driver or party is ultimately responsible for the collision, you may have a legal right to seek financial damages to adequately address your injuries. Now is the time to seek fair and just compensation. Colorado accident attorneys at The Babcock Law Firm can help.
Regardless of whether you ride a motorcycle for recreation or everyday travel, a collision with a car or truck is, at the very least, a very chaotic, life-altering event. Motorcycles are different in that they often go unnoticed by other drivers until it's too late.
A few situations where this commonly leads to an accident include:
Drunk drivers and otherwise reckless driving on the road can also lead to some pretty gruesome motorcycle accidents.
Our motorcycle accident attorneys know that while motorcycle accidents are similar to car accidents from a legal standpoint, the injuries sustained are often much more severe. Common motorcycle crash injuries include:
You can rest assured that we are intricately familiar with complex medical issues caused by serious motorcycle wrecks and we're experienced in crafting compelling arguments to help secure your right to compensation.
It becomes even more critical to ensure just compensation is awarded to you when your injuries require medical treatment for months or even possibly years after your motorcycle accident.
Fault can be difficult to prove in motorcycle accident cases, despite the fact that even if you're partially at-fault (less than 50%) for the accident involving your motorcycle, Colorado law allows for damages to still be awarded.
One of the reasons why this is the case is because police and witnesses often have a bias against motorcyclists, which is most often seen in the immediate aftermath of an accident. For this reason, it's critically important you enlist the help of an attorney experienced in helping motorcycle accident victims like you obtain the fullest amount of compensation allowed under the law.
Too often, injured motorcyclists accept an early settlement—only to find that the amount is not enough to address the long-term effects of their injuries.
Our personal injury lawyers are methodical in their reconstruction of an accident. We'll review your opponent's driving history and uncover any evidence to prove the fault of the other driver.
Even when it's clear that the other driver is at fault, it's common in Colorado for insurance companies to attempt to settle an injury claim for far less than its worth. They will try and offer a quick settlement soon after the incident to avoid paying potentially bigger payouts in the future. Their hope is that you'll simply settle your claim and move on.
Having a motorcycle attorney who is familiar with the inner-workings of insurance companies can be invaluable in situations like these.
Denver accident and injury lawyer Mack Babcock possesses extensive experience in recreating the accident scene and properly interviewing witnesses to get to the bottom of who's at-fault for the accident, regardless of whether it led to some road rash and relatively minor injuries, or resulted in the tragic death of a loved one.
If you'd like to know your legal rights, it's important to take action now, because insurance companies will move quickly with their own investigations. Discuss your case with an experienced motorcycle attorney in Colorado to ensure you receive a fair settlement equal to the level of injury you or a loved one sustained at the hands of a negligent driver.

Client Testimonials
"In September 2016 I contacted the Babcock Law Firm to seek help with my workers compensation (injury) case... I was then quickly scheduled the next day to meet with Stephanie Tucker (associate attorney) to go over all my case details. From day one, I really felt I was dealt with the upmost understanding and compassion. It didn't take me very long to know that I was making the right choice. Now, three and a half months later, and with the firm's awesome help, the opposing insurance company has finally settled with us. The pay-out amount was exactly what we had hoped for! A very special thank you goes out to everyone at The Babcock Law Firm! Sincerely, Garrett T. (Denver, CO.) "
