Motorcycle accident victims face a specific set of challenges that car accident victims don't. Insurance companies know this and exploit it. Here's what every injured rider in Pennsylvania needs to understand.
"The motorcyclist was speeding." "They came out of nowhere." "They were weaving." These are the standard narratives insurance adjusters build from the moment they get the claim. We know every one of these tactics — and we know how to dismantle them with evidence.
Road rash, broken bones, traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage — motorcycle crashes cause far more serious injuries than car crashes at the same speed. Your case value is higher, which means the insurance company is more motivated to fight you. So are we.
The #1 cause of motorcycle fatalities is a car turning left in front of an oncoming motorcycle. The driver almost always claims they "didn't see" the bike. We prove they should have — through accident reconstruction, witness statements and physics.
Pennsylvania's modified comparative negligence law means you can recover compensation even if you were partially at fault — as long as you were less than 51% responsible. Don't let an insurance adjuster's version of events define your percentage. We fight it.
Your Attorney
When you call Pisanchyn Law about a motorcycle accident, you're not getting a call center. You're getting an attorney who has spent over two decades fighting insurance companies in Pennsylvania courts on behalf of seriously injured clients including motorcycle accident victims who were told they had no case.
Michael Pisanchyn and the Pisanchyn Law team know exactly how insurance companies operate, what evidence wins motorcycle cases, and what your injuries are actually worth. They work for you, not the insurance company.
"Insurance companies count on riders not fighting back. We fight back every single time. If you've been hurt on your motorcycle in Pennsylvania, call us before you say a single word to any insurance adjuster."
— Michael Pisanchyn, Pisanchyn Law FirmWhat You're Owed
Motorcycle accident compensation in Pennsylvania covers far more than the medical bill you've already received. We fight for every category including the ones insurance companies hope you don't know about.
Emergency care, surgery, hospitalization, physical therapy, skin grafts for road rash, and all ongoing treatment costs for your injuries.
Income lost during recovery plus permanent reduction in your ability to earn if your injuries have long-term effects on your work.
Physical pain, emotional trauma, PTSD, anxiety, and the full impact your injuries have on your daily life — motorcycle crashes cause severe suffering that deserves full compensation.
Full replacement value of your motorcycle, helmet, riding gear, and any personal property destroyed or damaged in the crash.
Compensation for the impact your injuries have on your marriage and family relationships — especially relevant in catastrophic motorcycle injury cases.
When a driver was under the influence, texting, or otherwise grossly negligent, additional punitive damages may be available on top of standard compensation.
How It Works
Simple, transparent, no surprises. Here's exactly what to expect from Pisanchyn Law after a motorcycle accident.
We review the crash, your injuries, and what the other driver did. We assess your case completely free — no obligation, no pressure.
We deal directly with the adjuster from day one. You don't take their calls. You don't make statements. We handle every communication on your behalf.
We gather evidence, reconstruct the crash, obtain witness statements, and document every injury and damage — building the strongest possible case for full compensation.
We fight for every dollar you're owed — settlement or trial. Our fee comes out of the recovery. You never pay us a single dollar out of pocket.
Client Results
Hear from motorcycle accident victims across Scranton, Wilkes-Barre and NEPA who trusted Pisanchyn Law.
"A car turned left directly in front of me on Route 6. I went down hard — broken collarbone, road rash, concussion. The driver's insurance immediately said I was speeding. Pisanchyn Law got an accident reconstructionist involved, proved the driver never checked for oncoming traffic, and I received a settlement that covered everything. They fought hard."
"I was rear-ended at a stop light on my bike. The adjuster told me they were limiting my payout because I was on a motorcycle and 'assumed the risk.' I called Pisanchyn Law the same day. That argument went nowhere in front of them. I got full compensation for my injuries, my bike, and my lost work. Don't let them use that against you."
"My husband was seriously injured when a distracted driver drifted into his lane. The insurance company's first offer was insulting. Pisanchyn Law took over immediately, documented every aspect of his injuries and recovery, and secured a settlement that will actually take care of us. I can't thank them enough."
