Here to protect your interests, not the insurance company's

Insurance companies have a team.You should have one too.

Insurers bring adjusters, investigators and lawyers to every serious claim, and they value claims to control cost, not to make you whole. After a crash on Ventura Road, the 101 or Pacific Coast Highway, an adjuster may call within days, and what you say can shape the rest of your claim.

Before you sign anything, ask yourself:

  1. Was the crash caused by a driver's carelessness, like a turn or a lane change into your path?
  2. Were you injured, or were your bike and gear badly damaged?
  3. Will the settlement cover your treatment and lost income months from now, not just today?

A car accident that left our client with a neck injury. Most people would have taken the offer. We won more than ten times as much.

What you can recover aftera California motorcycle accident.

The driver who caused the crash, and their insurance company, can be held responsible for what it cost you.

Economic damages

The costs you can add up

  • Emergency care, surgery and hospital bills
  • Physical therapy and rehabilitation
  • Lost wages and lost earning capacity
  • Repairing or replacing your motorcycle and gear

Non-economic damages

The harm that has no receipt

  • Pain and physical suffering
  • Scarring and disfigurement
  • Loss of companionship
  • Lost enjoyment of life
  • $30,000The minimum injury coveragePolicies issued or renewed since January 1, 2025 must cover at least $30,000 per person and $60,000 per accident (Vehicle Code §16056). Serious injuries often cost far more.
  • 1 in 5California drivers had no insurance in 2023About 20%, according to the Insurance Research Council. If one hit you, the uninsured motorist coverage on your own policy may pay, depending on its terms.
  • 80%What you keep if you were 20% at faultIf the insurer says you share the blame, California's pure comparative fault rule reduces your award by your share instead of erasing it.

After a motorcycle crash in Oxnard,what comes next.

The crash report, video and your gear, lane splitting, records and deadlines, explained.

  • Getting the crash report
    On Oxnard's streets, Oxnard Police usually takes the report and sells it online through CRASHDOCS; without the report number, call Police Records at (805) 385-7650. On the 101, and on Pacific Coast Highway past Point Mugu, it's the CHP's Ventura office, and you can request it online.
  • Video, and the gear you were wearing
    The City says its intersection cameras keep no footage, so any video will be on someone else's camera, such as a nearby business's or a dashcam. Your helmet, jacket and bike can show how the crash happened too: keep them as they are until they've been photographed.
  • Lane splitting is legal here
    The CHP says lane splitting is legal in California, and that a driver who blocks or impedes a rider on purpose, or opens a door to impede one, is breaking the law. If the other side blames you for splitting, talk to us before you agree to anything.
  • Where riders are treated
    The west county's trauma center is Ventura County Medical Center in Ventura; St. John's Regional in Oxnard is the nearest emergency room but not a trauma center. Wherever you were treated, you have a right to copies of your medical and billing records, even with a bill unpaid.
  • The DMV has its own 10-day rule
    If anyone was injured, even slightly, or damage tops $1,000, each driver involved, riders included, must file form SR-1 with the DMV within 10 days, no matter who was at fault and even if police made a report.
  • Public agencies have shorter deadlines
    Most injury lawsuits must be filed within two years. If a road hazard or a city, county or state vehicle was involved, a written claim is usually due within six months. On the 101, and on Highway 1 south of Pleasant Valley Road, that claim goes to Caltrans; on Oxnard's streets, to the City.

Common questionsafter an Oxnard motorcycle accident.

How long do I have to file a motorcycle accident claim in California?
Most injury lawsuits must be filed within two years of the crash (Code of Civil Procedure §335.1). If a city, county or state vehicle or road was involved, a written claim is usually due within six months. Call us early so no deadline slips by.
Can I still make a claim if I was lane splitting?
Lane splitting is legal in California, the CHP says. Whether it played any part in the crash depends on what happened. If you're found partly at fault, California's pure comparative fault rule reduces your award by your share of the blame instead of erasing it, so talk to us before you assume you have no claim.
What if the driver who hit me had no insurance?
About 1 in 5 California drivers had none in 2023, according to the Insurance Research Council. Depending on your own policy, its uninsured motorist coverage may pay. Bring us your policy and we'll look at what it covers.
Does California require a motorcycle helmet?
Yes. California requires every rider and passenger to wear a safety helmet that meets the state's standard, with the straps fastened and a snug fit (Vehicle Code §27803).
How long does a motorcycle accident case take?
It depends mostly on your medical treatment: a claim is usually valued once treatment ends or your doctors know the long-term outlook. Many cases settle without a lawsuit. If one has to be filed in Ventura County Superior Court, it takes longer.
How much is my Oxnard motorcycle accident case worth?
It depends on your injuries, your medical bills, lost income and the long-term effect on your life. The first offer is often low, so a free case review is the best way to know before you accept anything.
Do you have an office in Oxnard?
Yes. Our office is at 1000 Town Center Dr, Suite 300, Oxnard, CA 93036, across from The Collection at RiverPark. Come in if you like, or we'll come to you, at home or in the hospital. Call (800) 985-9565 any time, 24/7.
What does a motorcycle accident lawyer cost?
Nothing upfront. Your consultation is free, and no attorney's fees are owed unless we recover compensation for you. You may be responsible for case-related costs and expenses; we'll explain them before you sign.
