Local Wilmington Motorcycle Accident Lawyers Near You
A Wilmington Motorcycle Accident Lawyer at Lanier Law Group Will Fight for You
Wilmington is one of the better places in North Carolina to take a motorcycle out. It sits at the end of a scenic ride from Raleigh through open farmland, serves as a popular turnaround point for riders coming up from Myrtle Beach, and hosts community events like the annual gold ribbon cancer ride out of the Wilmington Harley-Davidson dealership.
But not every ride ends the way it should. No matter how carefully you ride, accidents happen. Wilmington roads have seen their share of serious motorcycle crashes, including a rider who suffered severe injuries on Eastwood Road near Landfall and a fatal collision on South College Road.
If another driver’s carelessness put you here, a Wilmington motorcycle crash lawyer at Lanier Law Group can help you pursue full compensation for everything you’ve lost. Call our Wilmington office or reach out at 910-469-4831 to request a free case evaluation.
How Dangerous Is Motorcycle Riding in North Carolina?
Thousands of motorcyclists lost their lives across the country in 2020 alone. Riders are also four times more likely to be injured in a crash than people inside a car. The injuries that result from a motorcycle wreck run the full spectrum, from road rash and broken bones to traumatic brain damage. In the worst cases, a loved one may not survive at all.
That said, most rides do end without incident. North Carolina law requires every rider to wear a DOT-approved helmet, and that requirement applies to passengers as well, regardless of age. Beyond the helmet, we encourage riders to follow the ATGATT principle: all the gear, all the time. The right protective equipment can go a long way toward reducing the severity of injuries if a crash does happen.
What Compensation Can You Pursue After a Motorcycle Crash?
Wearing a helmet and full riding gear reduces your risk, but it can’t always protect you from the recklessness of another driver. When someone else’s negligence puts you on the ground, you have the right to pursue compensation and work toward being made whole again.
Damages you may be able to recover from the at-fault driver include:
- Medical bills
- Lost wages
- Pain and suffering

When a Motorcycle Accident Turns Into a Wrongful Death Case
A collision between a motorcycle and a passenger vehicle can be fatal for the rider, even when that rider did everything right. If you’ve lost a family member in a motorcycle crash caused by another driver’s negligence, you may have grounds to pursue a wrongful death lawsuit. That kind of claim can seek compensation for loss of financial support, benefits, and future income your loved one would have provided, as well as funeral and burial expenses.

"20 out of 10 stars."
There are times in your life you are so hurt and feel life has a grudge against you. Nothing in your life is going right. I lost the most important person in my life to death, of which I knew mistakes were made because I witnessed it with my own eyes. When you contact a law group you most of the time get all business and a matter of fact conversation. I want all to know that from the first phone call they listened to my lengthy story, sobbing most of the time with so much compassion. They never made any promises but offered assurances that no stone would be unturned. They fulfilled every word they said. They restored faith that I had lost. Until you are in a position like mine you can never know how invaluable Lanier Law Group is. They were wonderful while maintaining their professionalism. They treated me like a family member. They really do care about their clients. But most of all they are the best at what they do. I worked in the court system for years so I knew how attorneys and law firms basically operated. Understanding the law and it’s interpretation is the ultimate key to winning any case. Also know that if an attorney/attorneys study and review your case and know that you don’t have a chance in a court of law and are big enough to tell you that instead of giving you false hope, you then my friend have a group with valuable shared values. I have so much respect for everyone in this Law Group. I recommend Lanier Law Group, P.A. to anyone who needs representation, they are in your corner. 20 out of 10 stars.

"Lanier Law Group will always be the choice for me and all my family members"
I started working with Lanier Law Group in 2020 on my Social Security Disability case. They from start to finish were awesome. My case manager Janet Hanks and attorney, Ashley Sappenfield were always available to answer all my questions. I did not have to do much but sit back and let them handle whatever was needed. My case took too long (2 years) and if I did not have Janet and Ashley My case would still not be approved. I would recommend Lanier to anyone to get the job done and approved. Do not go to another firm with your case, who promise the world and do not see it to completion and do not think another firms would have worked as hard as they did on my case. Lanier Law Group will always be the choice for me and all my family members to handle any cases of this type and other legal services they provide. They went above and beyond!

"So thankful for your expertise and professionalism"
Mrs. Gonzalez did an awesome job of explaining everything in detail and keeping me informed on the status of my case. Despite poor customer service with the insurance company, Mrs. Gonzalez was able to fix what they could not. Mrs. Gonzalez was very helpful with helping me understand things that I was not aware of when dealing with insurance claims. I am so thankful for her expertise and professionalism.
