Motorcycle Accidents

In Illinois, hundreds of motorcycle riders are injured or killed in crashes every year. 

Because motorcycles offer little protection, these collisions often lead to catastrophic or even fatal injuries. According to national data, motorcycles account for only 3% of all registered vehicles, but they make up 15% of all traffic deaths. If you or a loved one has been seriously injured in a motorcycle crash, you deserve justice. At Rundio Injury Law, our Chicago motorcycle accident lawyers have the experience, resources, and determination to hold negligent drivers and insurance companies accountable.

What Are Common Injuries Caused in A Motorcycle Accident?

If you’ve been hurt in a motorcycle accident, Rundio Injury Law is here to help. We handle cases involving:

• Severe or Catastrophic Injuries – Traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, fractures, or internal trauma. These injuries may require surgery, long-term care, and rehabilitation.
• Orthopedic Injuries – Broken bones, torn ligaments, or joint injuries often caused by ejection or impact. These injuries can limit mobility, keep you from working, and lead to chronic pain.
• Road Rash and Soft-Tissue Injuries – Deep abrasions and nerve damage caused by sliding across the pavement.
• Disputed Fault Cases – When the other driver claims they “didn’t see you” or tries to shift blame onto you.
• Insurance Issues – If your claim has been denied, delayed, or underpaid.
• Complex Crashes – Multi-vehicle collisions, hit-and-runs, or crashes involving commercial trucks, rideshare vehicles (Uber/Lyft), or delivery drivers.

No matter what caused your crash, Rundio Injury Law will investigate, identify every liable party, and pursue full compensation for your injuries.

What To Do If You’re Hit on a Motorcycle in Chicago

If you’ve been in a motorcycle crash, remember this: safety comes first. If appropriate,  call 911 immediately. 

Then, take these steps:

1. Document the scene – Take photos and video of your injuries, your motorcycle, the other vehicle,  and the surrounding area.
2. Call the police – Request an official accident report.
3. Get witness information – Names, phone numbers, and statements can make a huge difference.
4. Seek medical care – Even if you think you’re okay, get checked out at the hospital, urgent care, or by a doctor because many injuries show up later.
5. Contact Rundio Injury Law – Before speaking to the insurance company, talk to an attorney who will protect your rights.

Knowing what to do if you’re hit on a motorcycle in Chicago can make a critical difference in your case and your recovery.

Who Is at Fault in a Chicago Motorcycle Crash?

Determining fault in a motorcycle accident depends on the specific facts of the case. Liability may rest with:

• A negligent driver who failed to yield or check their blind spot
• A trucking company or commercial driver violating safety laws
• A municipality that failed to maintain safe road conditions

Our motorcycle injury lawyers near you have the resources and experience to investigate every angle of your case and identify all liable parties.

How Much Compensation Could You Receive After a Motorcycle Accident?

Every motorcycle accident is unique. Your potential recovery depends on your medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and the long-term impact on your life. Some settlements are worth tens of thousands of dollars; others, millions of dollars.

Whether you suffered a broken bone or a life-altering spinal cord injury, we will fight to secure every dollar you deserve.
