Connecticut Motorcycle Accident LawyerRiders get blamed. George fights back.
Riding a motorcycle offers a unique sense of freedom, but it also comes with higher risks. In Connecticut, motorcyclists face greater chances of injury or death compared to those in cars, even when following all traffic laws. If you have been injured in a motorcycle accident due to another driver’s negligence, you deserve fair compensation for the harm you’ve suffered.

Damages in a Motorcycle Accident
If you have been injured in a motorcycle accident, you may be entitled to compensation for both economic and non-economic damages.
- Economic Damages: These include measurable financial losses such as medical bills, rehabilitation costs, and lost wages due to missed work.
- Non-Economic Damages: These cover intangible losses, including pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life.
The amount of compensation you may receive depends on the severity of your injuries, their permanence, and the long-term impact on your life. If your injuries are permanent, you may be eligible for higher compensation.
Filing Deadlines for Motorcycle Accident Claims
In Connecticut, you generally have two years from the date of your motorcycle accident to file a personal injury claim. Missing this deadline—known as the statute of limitations—will prevent you from seeking compensation for your losses.
If a loved one was tragically killed in a motorcycle crash, a wrongful death claim must also be filed within two years of the date of death. However, an Estate must first be opened in Probate Court to proceed with that lawsuit.

Connecticut motorcycle FAQs
What Motorcycle Accident Laws Should I Know?
Connecticut Motorcycle Accident laws are like that of a motor vehicle. If the driver of the other motor vehicle is negligent, then you are entitled to damages. Your damages will depend on the severity of your injuries.
What If I’m Partially At Fault For My Accident?
In Connecticut, you can recover damages even if you’re partially at fault for an accident. This is known as “comparative negligence.” For instance, if your damages total $100,000 and you’re found 30% responsible, you could receive $70,000. However, if you are found to be more than 50% at fault, you may not be entitled to any compensation.
What Are the Risks of Motorcycle Accidents?
Serious injury due to the physical exposure you have on a motorcycle as opposed to riding in a car. Wearing a helmet and goggles can be helpful in reducing the seriousness of injury.
