We help motorcyclists and their families recover the money they need for current and future medical care, lost wages, and other damages. We choose our clients carefully so we know we can give them the personalized attention they need and deserve.
Our clients work directly with a lawyer from our team. From intake to every call or email through until the close of their case, they interact with a knowledgeable lawyer with our firm. We want to ensure they have the information they need to make the best choices for their future. This includes guidance for determining their next steps or accepting settlements.
We aim to always be honest and trustworthy with our clients. We will tell you the truth about your case. The insurance companies are not on your side, so you need our team looking out for your best interests. We are a contingency fee firm. You will pay nothing unless we recover money for you in your case.
When we talk about getting justice for clients with serious or catastrophic injuries, we are discussing recovering compensation for their expenses and losses and holding the at-fault party accountable. This is generally done through an insurance claim or lawsuit. Most commonly, we negotiate a fair payout during settlement negotiations with the driver’s auto insurance carrier.
Motorcycle accident injuries are often serious or catastrophic. A financial recovery will not make up for the lasting effects of a traumatic amputation, spinal cord injury, or brain injury, but it will allow you to pay for your care without worrying about your financial situation.
The recoverable damages in motorcycle accident cases often include:
We also handle fatal motorcycle accident cases. If your loved one died from their crash injuries, our Huntingdon Valley wrongful death lawyer can help immediate family members fight for justice.
We can help beneficiaries like spouses, minor or adult children, and/or parents seek compensation and hold the at-fault party or parties accountable. We can help identify a qualifying personal representative who can pursue damages after the victim’s death. Learn more during a free case evaluation with our team. We are open 24/7.

At Kalikhman & Rayz, LLC, we have investigated a lot of motorcycle collisions. We understand the common causes and know how to develop a compelling case against the driver who caused your crash. Some of the most common areas where collisions occur include:
This occurs because motorists fail to see motorcycles or do not pay careful attention to their surroundings. They fail to yield and turn left in front of the biker, merge into their lane, or cross over the centerline and hit them head-on. Sometimes, they may disregard traffic laws entirely by running a red light or stop sign.
The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) provides detailed crash statistics through the Data Visualization Dashboard. This database offers a way to compare motorcycle accident statistics in and around Huntingdon Valley, PA. Montgomery County had 161 motorcycle accidents and four fatalities in 2023. This was the lowest fatality rate in the previous five years, with eleven motorcyclists dying in Montgomery County crashes in 2022.
When a driver causes a motorcycle crash, they are legally liable for the injuries, expenses, and losses that occur. This differs from the way the Pennsylvania Motor Vehicle Financial Responsibility Law handles most collisions. Unlike insurers of other vehicles, motorcycle insurers are not required to provide medical coverage.
Our attorneys have the experience, time, and resources to develop a compelling case to hold the at-fault driver or another liable party accountable for your motorcycle accident injuries. We manage investigations regularly and know how to preserve evidence, analyze documents, and work with experts to show what happened and how it affected our client’s life.
Some of the steps we take when developing a Huntingdon Valley motorcycle accident case include:
Once we have strong evidence to support our demand for compensation, we work to reach a settlement with the at-fault party’s insurer or file a lawsuit and prepare the case for trial. Most cases settle, but we will not back down.
If we cannot reach a fair agreement with the insurance company for a payout, we will proceed with our civil case in court. There, we will present compelling evidence to the judge and jury and let them decide how much our client deserves based on the case facts.
