Common questions

Is there any charge for a case review?

No. Sending in your crash details and hearing back from an attorney doesn't cost anything, and there's no charge for asking questions first.

After I reach out, does an attorney contact me directly, or does this site handle everything?

Your details go to an independent attorney willing to look at your case, and that attorney reaches out to talk it through with you. From there it's a regular conversation, the same as calling a firm yourself.

Do I have to sign with whichever attorney contacts me first?

No. Talking to an attorney doesn't commit you to hiring one. You can ask questions, compare what you hear, and walk away if it doesn't feel right.

Is Corpus Christi Motorcycle Lawyer a law firm?

No. This site connects riders with independent attorneys who handle motorcycle cases. Nobody here practices law or represents you directly.

What kinds of motorcycle crashes does this cover?

Left-turn crashes, lane-change and blind-spot wrecks, rear-end hits, drunk or distracted drivers, hit-and-runs, and truck-versus-motorcycle collisions all qualify, along with passenger injuries and fatal crashes. If you're not sure yours fits, asking costs nothing.

I crashed without a helmet on. Will that sink my claim before it starts?

Not on its own. An insurer may bring it up while arguing over fault, but going without a helmet doesn't erase a claim for a crash someone else caused. A documented injury and a driver at fault are what carry a claim forward.

Is it legal to slip to the front of stopped traffic at a red light?

No. Texas law treats filtering to the front the same as lane splitting, and it doesn't carve out an exception for stopped or slow traffic. Both break the same rule, even at a red light.

If I might share some of the blame for the crash, does it still make sense to reach out?

Yes. Fault in Texas gets split by percentage, not treated as all-or-nothing, so having some blame doesn't automatically end a claim. What actually decides the outcome is the exact percentage, and that number is worth checking before you assume the worst.
