Personal Injury Law · Georgia & South Carolina
Motorcycle Accident Lawyer
Motorcyclists face unique dangers on Georgia and South Carolina roads — and unique challenges when seeking compensation. Bowers Legal Group is a fierce advocate for injured riders.
Fighting for Injured Motorcyclists Who Are Too Often Overlooked or Unfairly Blamed
Motorcycle accidents are among the most serious and life-altering personal injury events. Without the protection of a vehicle frame, airbags, or seatbelts, motorcyclists are extraordinarily vulnerable to severe injury — road rash, broken bones, spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries, and worse. To make matters harder, motorcyclists often face an unfair bias from insurance companies and even juries who assume the rider was at fault or was riding recklessly. At Bowers Legal Group, we know how to counter that bias with evidence, and we fight relentlessly to ensure that injured riders receive the full and fair compensation they deserve.
Common Causes & Scenarios
Left-Turn Crashes
The most common motorcycle accident scenario: a car turns left in front of an oncoming motorcycle at an intersection. The driver often claims they 'didn't see' the motorcycle.
Lane Change Collisions
Drivers who fail to check blind spots before changing lanes can strike motorcycles that are riding legally in an adjacent lane.
Rear-End Accidents
Motorcycles stop more quickly than cars. Distracted or following-too-closely drivers frequently rear-end motorcycles, causing catastrophic injuries.
Road Hazards
Potholes, loose gravel, oil slicks, uneven pavement, and debris that a car might drive over safely can cause a motorcyclist to lose control and crash.
Dooring Accidents
When a parked car occupant opens their door into the path of an oncoming motorcycle, the resulting collision can be devastating.
Drunk or Distracted Drivers
Impaired and distracted drivers are especially dangerous to motorcyclists, who have far less protection and less visibility than occupants of larger vehicles.
What to Expect
We investigate the accident thoroughly to establish exactly what happened and counter any attempt to unfairly blame you as the rider.
We gather evidence including police reports, witness statements, traffic camera footage, and expert accident reconstruction to prove the other driver's fault.
We document the full extent of your injuries — which in motorcycle accidents are often severe and require long-term treatment — and project future medical costs.
We address the insurance company's anti-motorcycle bias head-on, presenting your case in a way that counters stereotypes and focuses on the facts.
We calculate the full value of your claim, including your motorcycle damage, medical expenses, lost income, and pain and suffering.
We negotiate aggressively and, if necessary, take your case to trial to secure the compensation you deserve.
Compensation You May Be Entitled To
Why Bowers Legal Group?
Chandler Bowers has personal experience with motorcycle accident cases — including the $1,000,000 settlement he secured for a client who was struck by a semi-truck while riding a bicycle, a case with many parallels to motorcycle crashes. He understands the physical vulnerability of riders, the bias they face, and the importance of thorough investigation and aggressive advocacy. At Bowers Legal Group, we don't accept the insurance company's narrative. We build our own case from the evidence and fight for every dollar our clients deserve.
