South Carolina Motorcycle Accident Attorneys
Charleston Motorcycle Accident Attorney
Motorcycle accidents result in some of the most serious injuries on the road. Riders are only protected by thin layers of jean and leather—a helmet at best—while car drivers have seat belts, airbags, and the steel frame of the vehicle.
To make matters worse, motorcyclists are saddled with a reputation for speeding and reckless driving, meaning that insurance companies often assume the motorcycle driver is at fault. At the Joye Law Firm, we know this isn’t always the case, and our South Carolina motorcycle accident attorneys fight for the rights of our clients.

Dangerous Roads
Despite motorcyclists’ bad reputation for careless driving, it’s often drivers of passenger vehicles and trucks that cause accidents. Whether they switch lanes without looking properly, stop without giving motorcycles adequate time to stop, or drive too closely, the consequences can be serious.
The South Carolina motorcycle accident attorneys at the Joye Law Firm have the experience and know-how to get the money our clients truly deserve. We stand up to insurance companies that try to bully accident victims into settling for less—our record of success levels the playing field, and forces insurance companies to play fair.
Protect Yourself
There are several ways you can help your South Carolina motorcycle accident attorney protect your rights to compensation:
- Don’t sign. Let the Joye Law Firm handle insurance adjustors. Before you sign any documents, speak to a lawyer. You may be signing away rights to compensation.
- Notify your insurance company. A delay reporting the motorcycle accident may hurt your claim.
- See your physician. Whether you feel hurt or not, see your doctor and tell him exactly what happened in the accident. Injuries can sometimes take time to manifest.
- Keep documents. Receipts for services and property damage, hospital documents, and insurance paperwork are important to keep on file. Also, keep a journal logging how you feel as you get better. It can be difficult to remember details months later, like how hard it was just to pull a t-shirt over your head.
