How We Handle Your Motorcycle Accident Case

You need someone who understands motorcycle accidents. Someone who knows Georgia law. Someone who won’t back down from insurance companies.

That’s exactly what you get with Kenneth S. Nugent, P.C.

Our Three-Phase Approach

1. Immediate Response (First 24-48 Hours)

We start working on your case immediately. Free consultation within 24 hours. Evidence preservation begins right away. We guide you on medical treatment (this is general guidance, not medical advice).

Why the rush? Evidence disappears. Witnesses forget. Insurance companies start building their defense against you from day one.

2. Investigation Phase (Weeks 1–8)

We dig deep. Accident reconstruction when needed. Witness interviews. Medical record compilation. Insurance claim filing. We handle the paperwork so you can focus on healing.

This is where experience matters. We know what to look for. We know which experts to call. We know how to build a strong case.

3. Negotiation & Resolution (Varies)

Most cases settle out of court. But we’re always prepared for trial. We negotiate hard for maximum compensation. If the insurance company won’t be reasonable, we take them to court.

Our goal is simple: Get you every dollar you deserve as quickly as possible.

Legal Process & Timeline

How long do I have to file a lawsuit after a motorcycle accident in Georgia?

In Georgia, you generally have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. This is called the statute of limitations. Missing this deadline can prevent you from recovering any compensation, so it’s important to act quickly.

How long does a motorcycle accident case take to resolve?

Most cases are resolved within 6 to 18 months, but it depends on several factors—like the severity of your injuries, how long you need medical treatment, and whether the insurance company disputes liability. Complex cases may take longer if litigation is necessary.

What happens if my case goes to trial?

If a settlement can’t be reached, your case may go to trial. Our team prepares extensively to present evidence, witness testimony, and expert opinions. Trials can last several days, and we’ll fight for the maximum compensation you’re entitled to.

Insurance & Compensation

What if the other driver doesn’t have insurance?

If the at-fault driver is uninsured, you may still recover compensation through your own uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage (UM/UIM). If you don’t have this coverage, we may still explore suing the at-fault party directly, though recovery could be limited.

How much is my motorcycle accident case worth?

The value of your case depends on many factors: medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, future care needs, and the extent of your injuries. Severe injuries often lead to higher settlements or verdicts. We evaluate all of this during your free case review.

Will I have to pay attorney fees if I don’t win my case?

No. We work on a contingency fee basis. That means you pay nothing upfront, and we only get paid if we win or settle your case. If there’s no recovery, there’s no attorney fee.

What if the insurance company says I was partially at fault?

Georgia uses a “modified comparative negligence” rule. You can still recover damages if you’re less than 50% at fault, but your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault. We’ll investigate to make sure fault is accurately assessed.

Georgia Motorcycle Laws

Do I have to wear a helmet when riding a motorcycle in Georgia?

Yes. Georgia law requires all motorcycle riders and passengers to wear a DOT-approved helmet—regardless of age. Failing to do so can impact your safety and your case, even though it doesn’t automatically make you at fault in an accident.

Is lane splitting legal in Georgia?

No. Lane splitting—riding between lanes of traffic—is illegal in Georgia. Violating this law may affect your ability to recover damages if you’re involved in a crash while lane splitting.

What motorcycle license requirements does Georgia have?

Georgia requires a Class M license or endorsement to operate a motorcycle legally. To obtain it, you must pass a knowledge and skills test or complete a Georgia Motorcycle Safety Program (GMSP) course.

Immediate Steps After an Accident

What should I do immediately after a motorcycle accident?

Call 911 and seek medical help—even if injuries seem minor. Document the scene with photos, gather witness info, and avoid admitting fault. Then, contact our office so we can begin protecting your rights immediately.

Should I talk to the other driver’s insurance company?

No. You should avoid speaking directly with the other driver’s insurer. Their goal is to minimize payouts. Let us handle communication—we know how to protect your interests and avoid damaging your claim.

What if I feel fine right after the accident?

Still see a doctor. Adrenaline can mask symptoms of serious injuries like concussions or internal bleeding. Prompt medical documentation is also critical to your injury claim.

Working with Our Firm

What happens during a free consultation?

Why Motorcycle Accidents Are So Severe

Motorcycles offer little protection compared to cars or trucks. Even a low-speed crash can result in devastating injuries or death. Unfortunately, motorcyclists are often blamed for accidents they didn’t cause.

Here’s what makes motorcycle crashes uniquely dangerous:

Crash Factor	Impact on Rider
Lack of frame protection	Direct exposure to impact increases injury severity
Low visibility	Drivers often fail to see or yield to motorcyclists
Road hazards	Potholes and debris are more dangerous for bikes
Driver bias	Insurance adjusters may unfairly assign blame
