Personal Injury
Motorcycle Accident Lawyer in Tampa
Riders get hurt worse and get blamed faster. We put the facts back at the center of your claim, and you pay no attorney fee unless we recover for you.
The Bias Against Riders Is Real
Adjusters and juries often start from the assumption that the rider was speeding or weaving. Countering that takes scene evidence, vehicle damage analysis, and witness statements gathered while memories are fresh. Having defended carriers earlier in his career, Attorney Daniels knows how quickly a claim gets framed against a rider and how to reframe it.
Florida PIP Usually Does Not Cover Motorcycles
Personal Injury Protection generally does not extend to motorcycle riders, which means your medical bills may not have the automatic first layer of coverage a car occupant would have. Uninsured motorist coverage, health insurance, and letters of protection with treating providers all become more important, and coordinating them correctly protects your recovery.
Serious Injuries Need Serious Documentation
Motorcycle injuries frequently involve surgery, hardware, permanent scarring, and long rehabilitation. Full value depends on documenting future care, future wage loss, and how the injuries changed daily life, not just the bills that have already come in the mail.

Common Questions
I was not wearing a helmet. Can I still recover?
Florida law allows qualifying riders over 21 with the required insurance coverage to ride without a helmet. The defense may raise it regarding head injuries, but it does not automatically bar your claim.
Does my auto PIP cover my motorcycle crash?
Generally no. That is one reason motorcycle claims are handled differently, and why identifying every available coverage early is critical.
How long do I have to bring a claim?
Most Florida negligence claims must be filed within two years of the crash. Physical evidence and roadway conditions change long before then, so earlier is always better.
What does it cost?
Motorcycle cases are handled on a contingency fee, so no attorney fee is owed unless we recover for you. The consultation is free.
