Kentucky Motorcycle Accident Lawyer
Serious Advocacy for Riders Hurt in Vehicle Collisions
Riding a motorcycle should be a safe, exhilarating choice—but when a vehicle driver fails to see you, turns too soon, or otherwise disregards a rider’s rights, things can change in an instant. At Cunningham Law, we help Kentucky motorcyclists injured in crashes with vehicles hold those responsible accountable and fight for full compensation for their losses. You don’t have to go through this alone—we’re ready to advocate so you can focus on healing.
Why Motorcycle Collision Cases Are Unique
Motorcycle‑vs‑vehicle crashes aren’t “just car accidents with a smaller vehicle.” They include unique risks and special legal issues:
Riders are far more vulnerable — without the steel frame, airbags or protection of a car, even a moderate impact can cause catastrophic injuries.
Under Kentucky law, motorcyclists share the roads and have the same basic rights as other vehicle operators — yet drivers may still fail to respect those rights, especially when decreased visibility enters the picture.
Insurance companies often assume the rider is partly at fault — making it crucial to have a legal team that understands how to investigate, protect your rights, and present the full story of your crash.
Because of these factors, you’ll benefit from a law firm experienced in motorcycle crash dynamics, vehicle v. motorcycle crash investigations, and aggressive advocacy on behalf of injured riders.
What We Handle
We represent motorcyclists across Kentucky who’ve been hurt in collisions such as:
A car failing to yield and turning left into a rider’s path
A vehicle merging or changing lanes without noticing a motorcycle
A rider being rear‑ended or forced off the road by a distracted or impaired driver
Crashes caused by hazards unique to motorcycles — roadway defects, debris, or other dangerous conditions that disproportionally affect motorcycle drivers
Catastrophic injuries or wrongful death when a rider is severely hurt or killed in a crash
No matter how the collision happened—or how complex the case—we’ll stand by you with clear communication, compassionate support, and aggressive pursuit of your rights.
What You May Be Entitled To
Recovering from a motorcycle crash often means dealing with serious medical care, lost income, and life changes. If another’s negligence caused your crash, you may be able to recover for:
Medical bills: past, present and future costs of your injuries
Lost wages and diminished earning capacity if you cannot work as you did before
Pain, suffering, emotional distress and loss of enjoyment of life
Property damage — your motorcycle, helmet, gear, and other lost items
Permanent impairment, disfigurement, lifestyle changes, or loss of mobility
In the tragic event of a rider’s death: compensation for surviving family members for loss of companionship and support
We’ll examine your case, explain what compensation might apply, and help you pursue full recovery—not just what’s easy.
Statute of Limitations: Time Is Limited
In Kentucky, you typically have two years from the date of your accident to file a personal injury claim. However, with motorcycle‑involved crashes, waiting can be especially harmful: critical evidence — like bike damage, scene conditions, witness memory — can degrade with time.
