Motorcycle Accidents

If you’ve been injured in a motorcycle accident, you need a legal team that truly understands the unique challenges you face on the road. At Pinney Talfourd, we specialise in personal injury claims for motorcyclists, offering expert advice to get you the compensation and care you deserve.

Personal Personal Injury Motorcycle Accidents

Service overview heading

Expert legal advice for motorcyclists injured in accidents, focused on securing maximum compensation and comprehensive care.

Motorcycle accidents can have profound and life-changing effects. We recognise the vulnerabilities motorcyclists face daily, especially as they represent just 1% of UK traffic but account for 20-25% of serious or fatal injuries on our roads. Our dedicated personal injury team brings both legal expertise and personal passion for motorcycling to every case, ensuring you feel supported and understood throughout.

Our lead personal injury solicitors, Stephen Green and Stephen Eccles, are seasoned motorcyclists themselves. Stephen Green is a Fellow of the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers (APIL) and has achieved the highest civilian riding standards, with four successive RoSPA Gold Awards and advanced qualifications through IAM RoadSmart. Stephen Eccles brings over 30 years of riding experience to the firm. Their insight means your case is handled by someone who truly appreciates the language, risks, and realities of motorcycling.

From the outset, we take time to understand your experience, the details of your accident, and how it has affected your life – physically, emotionally, and financially. Whether dealing with fractures, brain or spinal injuries, loss of limbs, or psychiatric consequences, we are here to guide you one-to-one through this complex process. Our team fights to secure the best medical care, rehabilitation, and financial compensation for your future.

No matter what kind of bike you ride – scooter, tourer, cruiser, sports bike, or commuter – we have the expertise and “legal roadcraft” to navigate your claim efficiently, reducing stress and maximising your outcome. With Pinney Talfourd, you’re not just another case; you’re a valued partner in a trusted relationship.
