Jefferson County Bike Collision Attorney
Motorcycles are the most dangerous type of motor vehicle to drive. Recent statistics on motorcycle accidents showed that more than 2,200 people are killed and more than 55,000 are injured in motorcycle accidents each year in the United States. Even more alarming is that nearly 80 percent of motorcycle accidents result in death (compared to 20 percent in other motor vehicle accidents). Motorcycle accidents are commonly caused by the other driver's negligence, defective roads and defects in the motorcycle's safety equipment.

We Overcome Prejudice Against Motorcycle Riders
The general public has a prejudice against bikers and insurance companies know it. Due to the design of motorcycles, motorcyclists are physically exposed while riding. As a result, motorcyclists are also more susceptible to injury than automobile drivers. Drake Law Firm has represented people in the Birmingham area and throughout the state of Alabama who have suffered serious injuries as the result of motorcycle accidents.
Our practice includes cases of:
- Fatality
- Amputation
- Spinal cord injuries
- Paralysis
- Road burn injuries
- Bone fractures
