Benefits of Hiring a Motorcycle Accident Attorney in New Orleans
Riders face unique legal challenges after a crash. Here is how our attorney changes everything.
Bias Works Against Riders
Insurers assume rider fault by default. We challenge that assumption with hard evidence
Injuries Run Deep
From brain injuries to spinal damage, we document every consequence of your crash in full.
Road Hazards Count
Dangerous road conditions caused by negligent authorities are fully actionable and recoverable.
Gear Damage Is Covered
Helmets, gear, and equipment lost in the crash are part of your claim. We make sure they are valued.
Fault Gets Defended
We counter every attempt by insurers to shift blame onto you with thorough reconstruction evidence.
Medical Care Arranged
We connect you with trusted providers immediately, so your treatment and documentation start right away.
A motorcycle crash can take everything from you in a split second.
One moment, you are on the road. Next, you are in a hospital bed facing serious injuries, a damaged bike, and a stack of medical bills that keeps growing. Worse, the insurance company is already working to pin the blame on you just for riding.
At Cossé Law Firm, we have seen how unfairly motorcycle accident victims are treated by insurers. We fight that bias head on and pursue the full compensation every injured rider deserves.

Queries
Frequently Asked Questions
Collect the police report, the other driver's insurance and contact details, photos of the crash scene, your injuries, and any road conditions that contributed to the crash. Also, preserve any damaged gear and clothing as physical evidence. The more documentation you have from the scene, the stronger your claim becomes.
Yes. Hit-and-run motorcycle accident cases can be pursued through your own uninsured motorist coverage when the at-fault driver cannot be identified. Your attorney will also work with law enforcement records and available traffic camera footage to identify the responsible driver wherever possible.
Lane splitting is illegal in Louisiana, and if you were lane splitting at the time of your crash, insurers will use it to argue you share fault for the accident. However, shared fault does not eliminate your right to compensation entirely. Under Louisiana's comparative fault rules, you can still recover damages proportional to the other party's responsibility.
Yes. Permanent scarring and disfigurement are recognized as compensable for non-economic damages in Louisiana. These damages account for the lasting physical and psychological impact of visible injuries and are pursued alongside medical expenses, lost income, and pain and suffering as part of your total claim.
You have the right to dispute a property damage valuation that does not reflect your motorcycle's true market value. Your attorney can challenge low offers using independent appraisals, comparable market listings, and documentation of any custom modifications or upgrades that increased the bike's value before the crash.
