What to Do After a Motorcycle Accident
Certain actions immediately following a motorcycle accident, can impact your case. After a motorcycle collision, you should:
- Report the collision to the police to ensure a report is prepared
- Obtain medical care to ensure your injuries are properly diagnosed and treated
- Document the scene of the collision by taking photographs
- Obtain the names and contact information of potential witnesses
- Obtain the other driver’s name and insurance information
- Avoid speaking with the other driver’s insurance company
Following these steps will allow you to substantially increase the strength of your motorcycle accident case.
How Fault is Determined in Massachusetts Motorcycle Accidents

Specifically, you must prove the issue of fault by a preponderance of the evidence, i.e., 51%. Gathering and presenting strong evidence in court will increase the strength of your case.

Motorcycle Accident FAQs
A motorcycle accident can be a life changing event. It is natural to be curious regarding your case and legal rights. The attorneys and staff at the Carter Mario Law Firm are always available to answer your questions.
How Long Do I Have to File a Motorcycle Accident Claim in Massachusetts?
Do not wait!
Massachusetts has a three-year statute of limitations for personal injury claims (MA Gen L ch 260 § 2a). This means you must file a lawsuit within three years of your motorcycle accident, or else you waive your right to sue.
Can I Still Receive Compensation if I Was Partially At Fault?
You can still recover if you were partially at fault!
Massachusetts is a comparative negligence jurisdiction (MA Gen L ch 231 § 85). This means you can still recover losses as long as you were less than 51% at fault. However, your level of fault will reduce the amount of money a judge or jury awards you, e.g., a $10,000 award is reduced to $7,000 if a jury determines you were 30% at fault.
How Long Does it Typically Take to Settle a Motorcycle Accident Case in Massachusetts?
We will work diligently to secure you a favorable settlement!
The amount of time it takes to negotiate a settlement depends on several factors. However, cases involving serious injuries often take longer to settle. You can trust the attorneys and staff at the Carter Mario Law Firm to do everything they can to resolve your case in a timely manner.
