How Tyroler Leonard Injury Law Helps with Your Motorcycle Accident Lawsuit in Plymouth, MN
You certainly have the right to represent yourself against the insurance company. However, insurers often try to take advantage of the victims’ lack of experience in cases like this by offering a reduced award amount versus what they’re actually willing to pay.
If you have extremely serious injuries in your motorcycle accident, the insurance company often will assign multiple adjusters and lawyers to your case. The insurance company representative handling your case might tell you that the insurer will help you obtain a large settlement. However, you should question why the insurer then would need to have multiple lawyers working on the case.
The truth is that insurance companies improve their profit margins by limiting award payouts. They’re willing to fight hard to try to avoid paying you a large award amount, which is why they have multiple lawyers working on your case.
We Take Several Actions on Your Behalf
When you hire our Plymouth, MN, motorcycle accident lawyers, we know the various ways insurance companies try to avoid paying you an amount that you should have. We use our experience in previous cases similar to yours to give you a chance at your best possible outcome. We perform several steps on your behalf, including:
- Investigation: We thoroughly investigate the case by reviewing the police report, speaking with witnesses, and finding any video of the accident that exists. Through our investigation, we will seek facts that show you did not do anything wrong to cause the accident.
- Preparation: We meet with you to prepare you to answer questions that the insurance company may ask during an official deposition or in a court case. We understand answering these questions can be stressful, but we work hard to help you feel confident.
- Correspondence: After you hire us, we will take over all correspondence with the insurer. You do not have to speak to the insurance company without having a member of our team present.
- Negotiations: We will start negotiating with the insurer to seek a settlement offer. If negotiations are successful, we can obtain a financial award for you without having to go through a lengthy trial. Should negotiations fail, though, we will stand with you in a court case where we’re proud to represent you and tell your story about the hardships your injuries are causing.

FAQ: Questions Clients Commonly Ask Our Motorcycle Crash Injury Lawyers
After clients choose to hire our Plymouth motorcycle accident attorneys, we make ourselves available to answer any questions they may have. We know that obtaining a personal injury settlement can feel like a long, complex process when you are going through it for the first time. We work hard to keep you informed and to help you understand each step. Here are some of the questions we frequently hear from our clients along with our answers.
How much is a motorcycle accident settlement worth in Minnesota?
It’s impossible for us to tell you how much your Minnesota motorcycle accident settlement will be worth without studying the case. Each case is different, and the potential settlement amount depends on the severity of your injuries and on the way those injuries will affect your quality of life in the future. Cases could be worth anywhere from four figures to seven figures.
Are motorcycle riders usually at fault for motorcycle accidents in Minnesota?
Motorcycle riders are not automatically at fault for motorcycle accidents in Minnesota. Determining fault in the injury crash is important in giving you a chance to receive a personal injury award when your injuries are serious. Even though Minnesota is a no-fault state, when another driver hits your motorcycle, your injuries often will be serious enough to allow you to seek a personal injury settlement against the at-fault driver. Our motorcycle accident injury attorneys investigate the case for you to determine fault.
Why do motorcycle accidents often result in head injuries?
Motorcycle accidents often result in head injuries because motorcycle riders don’t have the same kinds of protections and safety gear that motor vehicle operators and passengers have. A Syracuse University study showed that 37% of fatalities for motorcycle operators in crashes involve a head injury.
What happens if my loved one died in a motorcycle accident that was someone else’s fault?
After your loved one dies in a motorcycle accident that was someone else’s fault, your family may have the right to make a wrongful death claim. You could receive money for multiple items in this type of case. Our Plymouth wrongful death lawyers can help you determine whether you have a claim and how we can help.
When you are trying to decide the best path forward after your motorcycle injury accident, having accurate information is key.

You can trust Tyroler Leonard Injury Law to be honest with you from the first time you meet with us until we bring the case to a conclusion. Being honest with you gives us the best chance at representing you successfully.
