The abundant sunshine and beautiful landscape in Florida make motorcycle riding one of the riding capitals of the United States. Whether it’s riding to work or touring the state with a co-rider and your camping gear, riding is a pastime enjoyed by thousands of Floridians.

Unfortunately, the popularity of motorcycle riding leads to more motorcycle accidents in Florida than almost anywhere else in America. The Florida motorcycle accident lawyers at Freeman & Mallard aggressively represent motorcycle accident victims and their families in Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach and Port St. Lucie/Ft. Pierce. With an individual approach to each client and their case, we are prepared to help you stand up for your legal rights, and recover the financial compensation you deserve.

A careless, drunk or distracted driver can change your life forever – and nationwide statistics show that more than half of all serious and fatal motorcycle accidents are the fault of the other driver.

Motorcycle riders are most often injured or killed when the driver of a car fails to see them in time or otherwise fails to yield the right of way. Even though riders are urged to wear visible clothing and have adequate lighting on their bikes, attending a rider educational course can help keep you safe on the road.

Riders who have been injured in a Florida motorcycle accident should seek experienced legal representation right away. Injuries can mean loss of work, extensive physical rehabilitation and counseling, huge medical bills and a host of other long-term consequences that can impact the financial well-being of you and your family for years to come.
