Experienced Brevard County, Florida, Motorcycle Crash Attorney
Fighting the Insurance Company to Get You the Compensation You Need After a Motorcycle Accident
Severe injuries caused by a motorcycle accident can result in overwhelming medical bills and leave families reeling. When that accident was the result of a careless car or truck driver who has run into or turned in front of a motorcyclist, then damage can be devastating, even deadly.
Victims of motorcycle accidents are often most in need of quality legal representation when trying to prove that another's negligence caused the collision. Stereotypes of bikers and a lack of understanding of the unique dynamics of motorcycles can put motorcyclists at a disadvantage in the courtroom.
That's where the experienced injury attorneys at Morgan & Barbary can help. For years, our Melbourne, Florida, law firm has been helping motorcycle accident victims fight for the financial compensation needed to pay medical bills, repair damaged property and get their lives back on track. We have a proven track record negotiating with insurance companies and taking motorcycle injury cases to court.

Investigating the Cause of the Motorcycle Crash to Find the Truth
One of the most common causes of motorcycle accidents is the negligence or inattention of a car driver who claims they didn't see the motorcycle, cutting it off, or failing to yield the right of way. Other car/truck driver errors that can cause devastating or fatal injuries to a motorcyclist include:
- Changing lanes and sideswiping the motorcycle driving in that lane, forcing the biker and passenger off the road
- Making a left hand turn in front of an oncoming cyclist at an intersection
- Switching lanes and slamming on the car brakes quickly so that the motorcycle rear ends the car
- Hitting the motorcyclist from behind by driving too closely
- Running a red light, stop sign or other traffic signal and hitting the motorcycle head on
We get to the scene quickly to preserve evidence such as skid marks and pavement scrapes and to obtain witness statements. We use accident reconstructionists if liability is disputed. Attorney Clay Morgan is a trial lawyer with 20 years of experience, and he is prepared to bring your case to a jury if necessary.
Securing Full Damages
Unlike car and truck drivers, Florida does not require and insurance companies do not provide personal injury protection (PIP) coverage for motorcyclists. This means that the motorcyclist's insurance company does not have to pay for medical bills and lost wages while a settlement is pending. This can place a huge burden on the family, particularly if the accident was the result of a hit and run.
Case management is critical, especially if you do not have private health insurance. At Morgan & Barbary, we connect our clients with doctors who will treat cycle crash victims for later payment — doctors who understand head injuries and other common serious injuries such as spinal cord damage, back and neck injury, broken limbs and road rash caused by motorcycle accidents.
We pursue full damages, including those to cover future medical care, replacement of lost income, physical and vocational rehabilitation, compensation for lost quality of life and pain and suffering. We work to maximize the amount of money you have available for current and future medical treatment, including negotiating with doctors to reduce their bills.
