Bike riders aren’t just vulnerable on Pennsylvania’s roads; they are also vulnerable after an accident. Insurers are reluctant to pay and are often biased against bikers. If you are a motorcyclist who’s suffered injuries in a bike crash, you may find negligent parties are undermining your version of events.

We Connect a Liable Party to Negligence and Their Negligence to Your Injuries
Recovering compensation requires linking the other party’s careless action or inaction to your accident and injuries. We do that by pinpointing what they did—driving drunk, speeding, producing, or selling a defective auto part, maintenance mistakes—and then connecting what they did to your injuries.
We don’t do this alone. When our personal injury lawyers and support staff investigate your case, we consult experts who can analyze what occurred. That could range from doctors who can tell us about your medical condition to mechanics who can highlight how and why a part failed.
Whatever the circumstances of your motorcycle crash, we build a case, one puzzle piece at a time, until it paints a picture of negligence that demands compensation.
We know you’re hurting. We can help. Free case evaluations, home and hospital visits.
Contact Us Now For HelpWhat Damages Does a Motorcycle Accident Entitle You to in Brentwood?
You can seek several types of damages in a Pennsylvania motorcycle accident claim, and our attorneys can distinguish what you specifically deserve. To ensure you receive damages broad enough to cover all you lost, we can evaluate your:
- Past medical care, ongoing treatment, and future healthcare costs
- Past and future rehabilitation, medication, and equipment
- Past and future lost income from any job
- Reduced ability to earn an income
- Pain and suffering and emotional distress
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Wrongful death losses like funeral expenses and loss of a relationship
The type of insurance coverage you have could dictate which damages your policy covers. Still, motorcyclists generally have the option to seek maximum compensation, including pain and suffering, whereas other drivers do not.
Regardless, since motorcycle accidents are often linked to serious injuries with high costs, we can go over all your options, including filing a personal injury lawsuit for damages. Call Berger and Green today to learn how we can represent you and fight for your full recovery.
We Know What Settlements Tend to Leave Out
There are no identical accidents, so how you react to and recover from your motorcycle crash will be unique to you. This doesn’t sit well with insurers who like everything to fit into tidy boxes.
As a result, adjusters tend to neglect to fully compensate personal losses and expenses like pain and suffering and loss of enjoyment of life. They also might underestimate what you need to recover from your injuries due to your unique health conditions. The Insurance Information Institute (III) reports that older motorcyclists suffer more serious injuries; what it takes for someone over age 50 to heal from accident injuries differs from what it takes a 20-year-old.
At Berger and Green, we work to ensure your case is seen for what it is, not as the adjuster would like it to be. We are familiar with the areas where insurance companies tend to skimp on damages. Our motorcycle accident lawyers can catch any attempts to undervalue your Brentwood claim and speak up for what you deserve for things like pain and suffering.
