Every time a motorcycle rider is killed or injured, the victim and his family suffer financial and non-economic losses. At Auger & Auger, our experienced North Carolina motorcycle accident lawyers have made it their mission to ensure any driver responsible for causing a motorcycle crash is responsible for paying for all losses
North Carolina Traffic Crash Facts show around 4,000 motorcyclists get hurt in accidents in the state each year.
Every one of the victims involved in a motorcycle accident should determine the cause of the crash. If a driver is to blame for hitting your motorcycle or causing the wreck, the driver can be held legally liable.
Some of the common causes of motorcycle accidents where a driver may be to blame for causing the wreck include:
In these and other situations, the key question for victims is whether the driver was unreasonably careless or whether the driver broke any safety rules. A driver who was negligent or who violated the rules of the road can be sued by victims for losses caused by the crash. A North Carolina motorcycle accident attorney can help.
When you take legal action after a motorcycle crash, the case may be resolved by coming to a negotiated settlement agreement. This means the insurance company who provided the insurance policy to the negligent driver will pay a lump sum to avoid going to court.

When a settlement isn’t reached, or a fair settlement cannot be negotiated, your motorcycle accident case can be decided in court. At Auger & Auger, we are never afraid to litigate a case to get you justice. You’ll need to prove your case and we’ll gather evidence, interview witnesses and put together a strong and persuasive claim.
Whether you settle or go to court, the compensation you receive from your crash should include payment for:
