Motorcycles offer freedom on the road, but they also come with serious risks. Whether you were riding down Interstate 85, commuting along Asheville Highway, or navigating the curves of Pine Street, one distracted or reckless driver can leave you with life-altering injuries.
At Ted Law Firm, we represent injured motorcyclists throughout Spartanburg, Boiling Springs, and across Upstate South Carolina. If you were hit by a negligent driver, we’ll fight to make sure you’re treated fairly and fully compensated for your injuries.
Why Motorcycle Accidents Are So Dangerous
Motorcyclists are more exposed than drivers of passenger vehicles. Without a steel frame, seat belt, or airbags, riders face a much higher risk of serious injury or death even in low-speed crashes.
Most motorcycle accidents are caused by:
- Drivers turning left into a rider’s path
- Unsafe lane changes without checking blind spots
- Following too closely (rear-end collisions)
- Distracted or impaired drivers
- Failure to yield at intersections
- Speeding or reckless driving
We gather the evidence needed to prove negligence and protect your claim from blame-shifting tactics.
Serious Injuries We Handle
We represent motorcycle accident victims who’ve suffered:
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBI), even with a helmet
- Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
- Multiple fractures and crushed limbs
- Road rash, skin infections, and soft tissue damage
- Internal bleeding and organ damage
- Amputations or permanent disability
- Fatal injuries requiring wrongful death claims
These cases often involve extensive medical care and long-term costs. We work with your doctors to understand the full extent of your recovery needs.
What Compensation Can You Recover?
In South Carolina, you may be entitled to compensation for both economic and non-economic losses. That includes:
- Emergency room and hospital care
- Surgeries, physical therapy, and rehabilitation
- Lost wages and loss of future earning potential
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional trauma and mental health care
- Motorcycle replacement or repair
- Funeral and burial expenses (for fatal accidents)
We fight for every dollar you’re owed, not just what the insurance company offers.
What If the Insurance Company Tries to Blame You?
Motorcyclists are often unfairly blamed in accidents. But South Carolina uses a modified comparative negligence rule, which means you can still recover compensation if you were less than 51% at fault.
We counter biased assumptions with:
- Crash scene documentation
- Police and witness reports
- Traffic camera or helmet cam footage
- Accident reconstruction experts
