Car Accident Lawyers in Brooklyn: Cases We Handle
EXPERIENCED MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT LAWYERS IN NEW YORK
Motorcycle accidents often cause severe injuries because riders lack the protection that car occupants have. When another driver’s negligence causes a crash, victims may have the right to pursue substantial compensation. Working with an experienced motorcycle accident lawyer can help protect your rights and hold negligent drivers accountable.
The Rybak Firm PLLC represents motorcyclists in complex accident cases across Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, and throughout New York City.
Unlike car accidents, motorcyclists are exempt from New York’s No-Fault Law, meaning injured riders are not subject to the “serious injury” threshold and can pursue a claim against the at-fault driver even for less severe injuries.
HOW TO CHOOSE THE BEST MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT LAWYER IN NEW YORK
Choosing the right attorney requires evaluating case results, knowledge of New York’s unique motorcycle insurance laws, and experience handling serious injury claims.
An experienced motorcycle accident attorney New York should understand fault determination, defective motorcycle parts, road defect claims, and insurance disputes involving negligent drivers.
Our firm works with accident reconstruction experts and medical specialists to investigate head injuries, road defects, and other catastrophic motorcycle accident injuries.
Whether your accident involved a negligent driver, defective parts, lane splitting, or a hit-and-run, our legal team prepares every case for aggressive negotiation or trial.
WHAT COMPENSATION CAN YOU RECOVER IN A MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT CASE
Victims working with a motorcycle accident lawyer may be entitled to significant motorcycle accident compensation after a crash caused by negligence.
- Past and future medical expenses
- Long-term rehabilitation and therapy
- Lost income and reduced earning capacity
- Property damage to the motorcycle
- Pain, suffering, and emotional distress
The value of your motorcycle accident settlement depends on the severity of the injury, liability, and the long-term impact on your life.
WHO CAN BE HELD LIABLE FOR A MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT
Liability in motorcycle accident cases may involve multiple negligent parties. Responsible parties may include:
- Negligent drivers who failed to yield or see the motorcyclist
- Government entities responsible for road defects
- Motorcycle manufacturers (defective parts or design)
- Drunk or distracted drivers
- Other motorcyclists in multi-vehicle accidents
Our attorneys investigate every case thoroughly to identify failures in driver attention, road maintenance, and vehicle defects. We handle claims involving lane-splitting disputes, left-turn accidents, and rear-end collisions.
HOW MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT CLAIMS WORK IN NEW YORK
Motorcycle accident lawsuits require proving that a negligent party caused the crash and resulting injuries.
To build a successful claim, our legal team must establish:
- The at-fault party owed a duty of care
- That duty was breached through negligence
- The negligence directly caused the accident
- The accident resulted in measurable damages
Our attorneys work with accident reconstruction experts to build strong claims involving traumatic head injuries, wrongful death, and disputed fault determinations.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do after a motorcycle accident in New York?
After a motorcycle accident, seek medical attention immediately, even if injuries seem minor. Document the scene, get the other driver's information, and contact a motorcycle accident lawyer before speaking with insurance companies about your claim.
What is the average motorcycle accident settlement in New York?
Motorcycle accident settlements vary widely based on the severity of injuries, liability, and insurance coverage available. Settlements can range from tens of thousands to several million dollars depending on these factors.
What is the statute of limitations for a motorcycle accident claim in New York?
In most cases, New York law gives you three years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. Missing this deadline can permanently bar you from recovering compensation.
Who is at fault in a motorcycle accident?
Fault is determined by investigating the circumstances of the crash, including police reports, witness statements, and traffic laws. Common causes include negligent drivers failing to see motorcyclists, unsafe lane changes, and road defects.
Does no-fault insurance cover motorcycle accidents in New York?
No. Motorcyclists are exempt from New York's No-Fault Law, meaning you cannot file a motorcycle accident insurance claim for no-fault benefits covering medical expenses or lost wages. Instead, you must pursue a claim directly against the at-fault driver.
How do I choose the best motorcycle accident lawyer near me?
