New Castle Motorcycle Accident Attorneys
Motorcycle Accidents in Pennsylvania
Motorcycle accidents are not only more likely to be more devastating than a typical car accident, but they also present certain unique challenges when it comes to recovering compensation. Severe injuries and medical billing issues, compounded by widespread bias against bikers, can make it incredibly difficult to get back on your feet after a motorcycle accident.
At Luxenberg Garbett Kelly & George, we know that “minor” motorcycle accidents are rare. Our clients have typically suffered severe, sometimes catastrophic injuries. Sometimes, they have lost loved ones due to the carelessness and recklessness of others. Our New Castle motorcycle accident attorneys help individuals and families throughout Western Pennsylvania seek fair financial compensation for unexpected physical, emotional, and financial hardships, as well as the justice they need to heal.

Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents
Although there is a common misconception that most motorcycle accidents are the result of the biker’s reckless or negligent behavior, this is simply not the truth. In fact, it is the carelessness of other drivers on the road that most often results in motorcycle crashes.
Specifically, some of the most common causes of motorcycle accidents include:
- Distracted driving, including texting while driving
- Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs
- Tailgating, or following too closely
- Failure to yield the right of way
- Dangerous or unlawful turns, lane changes, and passing
- Speeding, including driving too fast for current conditions
- Failure to keep a proper lookout for motorcyclists
- Opening a vehicle’s door into a motorcyclist’s path
- Dangerous or defective road conditions
- Poor or reduced visibility, due to inclement weather, nighttime, and other factors
At Luxenberg Garbett Kelly & George, we know how to properly investigate motorcycle accident claims to determine exactly what happened and, most importantly, who is liable. If necessary, our New Castle motorcycle accident attorneys will consult with life care planners, economists, and treating physicians to evaluate the extent of our clients’ damages and help ensure they are fully compensated for current and future medical care, lost earning potential, permanent injury, pain and suffering, and lost quality of life. Our attorneys are prepared to take cases to trial, and the insurance companies know it.
