Motorcycle Accident Claims

Motorcyclists are among the most vulnerable road users — with limited physical protection, even a minor collision can result in serious, life-changing injuries. At Aston Knight Solicitors, we understand the devastating impact that a motorcycle accident can have — physically, emotionally, and financially.

If you’ve been injured in a motorcycle accident that wasn’t your fault, our specialist motorcycle accident solicitors can help you claim the compensation you deserve. We’ll guide you through every stage of the process, ensuring that you receive the medical care, rehabilitation, and financial support needed to rebuild your life.

Why Motorcycle Accident Claims Are Different

Motorcyclists often face unfair assumptions of blame following a collision. However, many accidents occur because other road users fail to notice motorcyclists or fail to give them proper space on the road.

Our experienced solicitors specialise in challenging these misconceptions, gathering the necessary evidence — such as dashcam footage, witness statements, and accident reconstruction reports — to prove liability and secure maximum compensation for you.

Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents

We handle motorcycle claims involving:

• Drivers failing to check mirrors or blind spots before changing lanes
• Vehicles pulling out of junctions without seeing a motorcyclist
• Poorly maintained roads, potholes, or debris causing loss of control
• Reckless driving or excessive speed by other road users
• Hit-and-run accidents or uninsured drivers
• Defective motorcycle parts or faulty repair

Even if the other driver fled the scene or was uninsured, we can still help you make a claim through the Motor Insurers’ Bureau (MIB).

Types of Motorcycle Accident Injuries

Motorcycle accidents can cause a wide range of injuries — from minor to catastrophic. We regularly assist clients who have suffered:

• Fractures and crush injuries
• Spinal and back injuries
• Head and brain injuries
• Amputations or limb trauma
• Road rash, scarring, and soft tissue damage
• Psychological injuries, including PTSD or anxiety

Our focus is not only on obtaining compensation but also on ensuring you have access to rehabilitation, physiotherapy, and ongoing medical support.

What Can You Claim For?

Your motorcycle accident compensation claim may include:

• Pain, suffering, and loss of amenity
• Loss of income and future earning potential
• Medical expenses and rehabilitation costs
• Damage to your motorcycle and personal belongings
• Adaptations to your home or vehicle
• Care and support needs
• Psychological support and counselling

What To Do After a Motorcycle Accident

To strengthen your claim, take these steps where possible:

1. Seek medical attention immediately and keep all medical records.
2. Report the accident to the police and obtain a reference number.
3. Gather witness contact details and take photographs of the scene, your injuries, and the damage to your motorcycle.
4. Keep receipts for medical treatment, travel expenses, and repair costs.
