SUMMARY

Premier San Francisco Motorcycle Accident Lawyer

We are lawyers who ride. Attorney Chris Dolan is a motorcyclist who has logged more than 250,000 miles across five countries on fourSan Francisco Motorcycle Accident Lawyer Chris Dolanbikes. We understand the culture of motorcycling and are relentless advocates for the rights of motorcyclists.

The Dolan Law Firm has been recognized as one of the leading motorcycle accident law firms in California. We have successfully represented over one hundred motorcycle crash victims and obtained over $25 million for our clients injured in motorcycle crashes or for the families of loved ones who died.

Can I Still Bring A Case If The Police Report Places The Fault For The Crash On Me?

Yes. We frequently see cases in which the police report places part or all of the fault for the crash on the motorcyclist. The police officer’s report, while important evidence, is not binding on the court.

We will thoroughly and independently review your case. We know that when an experienced, trained motorcyclist is involved in a collision it is often because the driver of the car or other vehicle was careless and turned into the motorcyclist, was speeding, ran a red light, made an illegal turn, was texting, or driving drunk.

For example, we obtained over $2.5 million for our client even though the police report attributed 100% of the fault for crash to our client. We proved to the jury that the crash was actually due to dangerous road conditions.

In another motorcycle crash case, our client lost traction because of loose gravel — and again, the police report blamed him completely for the motorcycle accident. We proved that the road resurfacing was to blame and achieved a $1.65 million settlement for our client.

Even if you were partially at fault, you still may have the right to recover damages if carelessness or speeding by the car driver or other reasons were substantial factors in causing the accident and your injuries.

California is a “pure comparative fault” state meaning that a victim can bear some fault for their injuries but still recover from the other parties who were more at fault. For example, if a motorcyclist’s speeding was determined by a jury to be 10% of the reason a collision occurred, the motorcyclist’s damages would be reduced by 10%.
