Idaho Brain Injury Attorney
You Have Every Right to Ride. Call if You've been Injured.
The insurance defense lawyers will make the same claims every time: The motorcyclist was riding too fast for road conditions. They will say you didn't have sufficient training or skills to handle an unusual situation. They will call you reckless. To insurance companies, your motorcycle accident was your own fault.

At Carty Houst, in Boise, we know the real statistics behind motorcycle accidents. In the large majority of cases, the car driver simply didn't see the bike. Accidents caused by a car driver suddenly changing lanes or pulling out in front of the motorcycle are common. Despite the insurance company's claims to the contrary, motorcyclists have every right to the road.
We know what it takes to win a motorcycle accident case
To win a motorcycle accident case often means proving that you were squeaky clean and did nothing wrong at all. Unfortunately, simply arguing that you had the right of way isn't enough. Far too often, there is an unspoken ill-will toward motorcyclists among the public. This is true in Idaho and across the country. What we have to counter is thinking that goes like this: You got on the bike. You knew the risks. You probably weren't paying attention.
To do this, we bring in expert witnesses and professional riders to prove that you knew the techniques of safe riding. We prepare your case to show that you understood the hand and foot braking system and defensive riding techniques. If we can show that you have specific certification beyond your motorcycle driver's license endorsement, we have the additional edge.
