Motorcycle Accidents claims in Montgomery

Outside the Montgomery city limits the roads open up fast. US-80 running west, county blacktop with no shoulder worth the name, much of it fine to ride. Some of it is patched in ways you feel through the bars. Rural riding produces a particular wreck. A car turns left across the rider's path at a driveway, then its driver says the bike appeared out of nowhere and must have been moving, and that remark about speed is the opening of an argument, not small talk. Under Alabama law that argument removes a rider's recovery instead of reducing it. Skid marks fade fast. Photograph them yourself, or ask somebody who can get there.

Frequently asked questions

Where do I request a crash report in Montgomery?

From whichever agency responded. The Montgomery Police Department works most city streets, Alabama State Troopers work I-65 and I-85, and the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office covers county roads outside the city. Reports generally are not ready the same day, and Alabama distributes them through a state portal for a fee. Get the report number at the scene if you can, because it makes every step after this one shorter.

Which court would my injury case go to in Montgomery?

Montgomery County Circuit Court. Montgomery is also where Alabama's appellate courts sit, but that is not where a case begins. An injury suit is generally filed in the circuit court for the county tied to the crash. An independent, licensed Alabama attorney makes that call and files the paperwork. We are not a law firm, and we do neither.

The driver who hit me was passing through on I-65. Does that change my claim?

Not the Alabama rules. A crash on Alabama pavement is generally governed by Alabama law, including the contributory-negligence bar and the 2-year deadline, whatever plate the other car was carrying. What it can change is practical: an out-of-state driver, an out-of-state insurer, and possibly a commercial policy if a truck was involved. Those take longer to pin down, which is one more reason not to sit on it.

How long do I have to file an injury claim in Alabama?

In Alabama, the deadline is generally 2 years from the date of the accident. 2 years personal injury; wrongful death 2 years (measured from death). Deadlines are strict — the sooner you act, the more options you have.
