How Our Lawyers Help Haverford Motorcycle Accident Victims

At Kalikhman & Rayz, our attorneys know these tactics well and we don’t let insurers take advantage of injured riders. We believe in fighting aggressively for every client while treating you with honesty, respect, and compassion.
Here’s how our team supports motorcycle accident victims:

Common Injuries in Motorcycle Accidents
Motorcyclists are exposed to far greater risks than drivers in enclosed vehicles. Even with safety gear, riders often suffer severe or catastrophic injuries when struck by a car or thrown from their bike. Some of the most common injuries we see include:
- Head and Brain Injuries: Concussions and traumatic brain injuries can have lasting effects, even if a rider was wearing a helmet.
- Spinal Cord Injuries: Damage to the spine may cause chronic pain, mobility issues, or paralysis that changes a victim’s quality of life forever.
- Broken Bones and Fractures: Collisions frequently result in broken arms, legs, ribs, and other painful fractures that may require surgery.
- Road Rash and Soft Tissue Injuries: Severe abrasions and nerve damage can lead to infections, scarring, and long-term complications.
- Internal Injuries: Damage to organs and internal bleeding may not be visible immediately but can quickly become life-threatening without medical care.
These injuries often require emergency treatment, extended rehabilitation, and ongoing support for both victims and their families.
"The outcome of a case often comes down to preparation. We build every claim as if it may go to trial."
Potential Compensation for Motorcycle Accident Victims
Compensation is about more than covering today’s medical bills, it’s about securing your future. At Kalikhman & Rayz, we fight to recover every form of compensation you may be entitled to under Pennsylvania law. This may include:
- Medical expenses
- Lost wages and reduced earning capacity
- Pain and suffering
- Property damage
- Loss of enjoyment of life
Insurance companies often downplay these losses or pressure victims into accepting quick, low settlements. Our attorneys take your injury personally—we investigate the full impact of your accident and fight for the maximum recovery you need to move forward.

FAQs
What if the Insurance Company Says I Was at Fault for the Accident?
It’s common for insurance companies to try to shift blame onto motorcyclists, even when the evidence shows otherwise. This is a tactic to reduce or deny the amount they pay. In Pennsylvania, 42 Pa. C.S.A. § 7102 establishes a modified comparative negligence rule: injured parties can still recover compensation as long as they are less than 51% at fault for the crash, but recovery may be reduced by the percentage of fault.
You should never simply accept the insurer’s version of events. At Kalikhman & Rayz, we conduct a thorough investigation to challenge unfair fault claims. Our team fights back to make sure insurers don’t use the law against you and that you’re not left carrying the financial burden of someone else’s negligence.
Do Pennsylvania’s Helmet Laws Affect My Ability to Recover Compensation?
Pennsylvania law requires helmets for some riders, but not all. Whether or not a victim was wearing a helmet at the time of their accident does not automatically bar them from pursuing compensation. However, insurance companies may try to argue that not wearing a helmet contributed to injuries.
The attorneys at Kalikhman & Rayz push back against these arguments, focusing on the real cause of the crash and pursuing the full compensation victims are entitled to under the law.
How Long Do I Have to File a Motorcycle Accident Claim in Pennsylvania?
In Pennsylvania, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims is generally two years from the date of the accident per 42 Pa. C.S.A. § 5524(2). This means motorcycle accident victims usually have two years to file a lawsuit, or risk losing their right to compensation.
The sooner you can call our firm the better. Waiting could hurt your case, as evidence can fade, and witnesses may become harder to contact. Our attorneys act quickly to preserve evidence and build the strongest possible claim on your behalf.
