Motorcyclists face more danger on the road than any other driver. When someone else’s mistake leads to a crash, the injuries are often severe, and the insurance company rarely offers what your case is truly worth.
At Ted Law Firm, we represent injured riders in Myrtle Beach, Conway, North Myrtle Beach, and throughout Horry County. If you’ve been hit while riding, we’ll protect your rights and fight for the full compensation you deserve.
How Motorcycle Accidents Happen in South Carolina
Most motorcycle crashes happen because drivers don’t look twice, or don’t respect your right to share the road.
Common causes of motorcycle accidents include:
- Cars turning left into your path
- Drivers merging into your lane
- Tailgating or following too closely
- Distracted or texting drivers
- Speeding or reckless driving
- Drunk or impaired drivers
We’ve helped riders injured near Kings Highway, Highway 17, Ocean Boulevard, and throughout the Grand Strand.
Serious Injuries Deserve Serious Legal Help
With no steel frame or airbags to protect you, motorcycle accidents often result in long-term or permanent injuries.
We handle cases involving:
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
- Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
- Road rash and skin grafts
- Fractures, crushed bones, or amputations
- Internal organ injuries and bleeding
- Fatal accidents (wrongful death claims)
We work with medical experts, surgeons, and life care planners to fully assess your injuries and fight for the compensation you need to recover.
What Compensation Can You Recover?
Motorcycle accident victims in South Carolina may be entitled to recover:
- Medical bills (past and future)
- Lost wages and reduced earning capacity
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional trauma and PTSD
- Long-term rehabilitation or care
- Motorcycle repairs or replacement
- Funeral costs (in fatal crash cases)
We calculate the full value of your damages and fight back against any attempt to downplay your injuries.
What If They Try to Blame You?
Insurance companies often try to shift the blame to motorcyclists even when the crash wasn’t your fault.
South Carolina follows a modified comparative fault rule, which means:
- You can still recover compensation if you’re less than 51% at fault
- Your total recovery will be reduced by your percentage of fault
We push back with accident reconstructions, medical records, traffic footage, and expert testimony.
