Ohio Motorcycle Accident Lawyers
Protecting Bikers. Pursuing Justice.
Winning Compensation.
Motorcyclists face unique dangers on Ohio’s roads – dangers that are often ignored by careless drivers and underestimated by insurance companies. When you’re involved in a motorcycle accident, the consequences can be catastrophic. Broken bones, traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, and months – sometimes years – of recovery. And too often, riders are wrongly blamed for crashes they didn’t cause.
At The Ohio Crash Lawyers, we’re not just personal injury attorneys. We are dedicated Ohio motorcycle accident lawyers who understand the realities of riding, the prejudice bikers face, and the law’s full potential to deliver justice. If you were injured in a motorcycle crash anywhere in Ohio, we’re ready to help you recover everything you’re owed.
Common Causes of Motorcycle Crashes in Ohio
Ohio sees thousands of motorcycle-related crashes every year – most aren’t the rider’s fault.

You may be entitled to compensation for:

- Lost wages and loss of earning capacity

What Does Ohio Law Say About Helmets?
Ohio law only requires motorcycle helmets for riders under 18 or those with less than one year of experience. However, insurance adjusters often try to use the lack of a helmet as a way to reduce your compensation – even when the injuries are unrelated (like broken legs or road rash).
We have successfully represented helmeted and unhelmeted riders, countering unfair arguments and protecting the rights of injured bikers across the state.

Frequently Asked Questions
What if I wasn’t wearing a helmet?
You may still recover compensation depending on your age, license status, and the nature of your injuries. We’ve successfully represented many unhelmeted riders.
How long do I have to file a claim?
Ohio has a two-year statute of limitations for personal injury. But don’t wait—evidence disappears fast.
How much does it cost to hire you?
Nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee basis. If we don’t win, you don’t pay.
