Motorcycle Accident Lawyer in Evansville, IN

Hurt in a motorcycle crash in Evansville, IN? Insurers often argue riders share the blame, so the state's fault rule matters, along with the filing deadline and helmet rule.

  • Deadline: Indiana generally allows 2 years from the date the cause of action accrues to file an injury lawsuit (Ind. Code § 34-11-2-4).
  • Fault rule: Modified comparative fault (51% bar): recovery is reduced by your share of fault and barred if you are found more than 50% at fault. (Ind. Code § 34-51-2-6)
  • Helmet rule: Partial — helmets required only for riders and passengers under 18 years of age, and for all riders operating on a motorcycle learner's permit regardless of age (Ind. Code § 9-19-7-1).
