A great number of members of ABATE of Michigan have been requesting our free books and reports.  ABATE is a great organization dedicated to freedom of choice issues for riders and bikers in Michigan.  ABATE members discuss issues regarding motorcycle equipment and the rights of bikers to choose their motorcycles, equipment, and the extent of safety gear that is now required in Michigan.   They also work to get legislation passed and to obtain funding for rider edcuation programs in the Michigan.

Our book, “The Ultimate Michigan Motorcycle Handbook,” is a great resource for motorcyclists and passengers injured in Michigan motorcycle accidents.  It provides information on No-Fault Insurance Benefits, personal injury claims, and even property damage claims. 

Our “Michigan Motorycle Insurance Report” explains the types of coverage that every biker in Michigan should have before taking their bikes to the Michigan streets and highways.  It also has recommendations for coverage and even a checklist to use when buying motorcycle insurance.  We have seen too many cases recently where bikers suffer serious injuries in Michigan motorcycle accidents and do not have necessary benefits because they were sold the wrong policy and cannot be compensated for their injuries for the same reason.  We hope that our report will encourage bikers to change their policies.

In addition to individuals requesting our motorcycle materials, many biker groups, clubs, and organizations are also requesting them to distribute to their members.  Anyone wishing to obtain these in bulk for distribution to other bikers, please call Larry Buckfire at (800) 606-1717.

To choose the best lawyer to handle your Michigan motorcycle accident case, you need to find a lawyer who specializes in motorcycle accident cases here in Michigan.  The laws regarding motorcycle accidents change almost on a daily basis.  Many attorneys claim to be experts on motorcycle accidents but then they do not even know something as basic as the fact that motorcycle accidents that involve a car or truck are governed by the Michigan No Fault Act while motorcycle accidents without a car are not.  If a lawyer does not even know what law governs your case, how can he expect to get you a recovery?  Just because a lawyer handled a friend’s divorce or drafted your uncle’s will does not mean they are qualified to handle your motorcycle accident.  You need an expert.

Many bikers in Michigan are seriously injured due to road defects and inadequate maintenance on our streets and highways.  These injuries are often catastrophic or deadly.  Common defects include potholes, raised and cracked pavement and cement, excessive stones and debris in the roadway, and dangerous highway shoulder dropoffs.  Motorcycle accident victims injured by road and highway defects do have legal rights to be compensated for their injuries.

Under Michigan law, the government agency responsible for the roadway can be liable to an injured biker if the roadway is not safe and convenient for public travel.  It is essential to photograph the scene of the accident and the actual road defect as close in time to the accident as possible.  Hopefully this will be before the road commision repairs the hazard. 

To make a claim for a road or highway defect, the injured person or their representative must give the government agency responsible for the roadway written notice of the defect within 120 days of the accident.  The notice must provide the date of the accident, the location of the accident, the nature of the defect, the names of any witnesses, and the injures suffered by the biker.  The failure to provide this written notice within the proper time frame will bar the claim forever.

For this reason, it is essential to hire a lawyer as soon as possible after the accident.  When we are hired to represent an injured biker in a Michigan motorycle accident case based upon a road defect, we immediately have our investigator photograph the scene and interview witnesses.  We also often have our accident investigator visit the scence to take mesaurements of the road and skid marks to preserve information vital to winning the case.  Our traffic highway engineers also inspect the roadway to prove that it was defective at the time of the accident.
