Key Steps to Take After a Motorcycle Accident
- Seek Medical Attention: Your health is the top priority. Follow all medical advice, attend appointments, and complete recommended treatments. Doing so strengthens your claim and demonstrates the seriousness of your injuries.
- Be Cautious with Insurance Companies: Only share necessary details with your insurance provider. If contacted by the other party’s insurer, decline to give a statement without speaking to an attorney.
- Collect Evidence: If possible, document the accident scene. If hospitalized, an attorney can assist in obtaining the necessary police reports and gathering evidence.

Insurance Considerations
Texas law mandates minimum motorcycle insurance coverage for personal injury and property damage. However, basic coverage may be insufficient for serious injuries. Options such as MedPay can offer extended benefits for medical expenses. It’s essential to review your coverage and seek legal guidance to maximize benefits.
