Chrome, Concrete, And Consequences: Why McAllen Riders Need A Real Motorcycle Accident Lawyer

You weren’t in a race. You weren’t driving like a crazy person from a video game. You were just biking, maybe to see your grandma in Pharr or to have a coffee at Starbucks on 10th Street. Then a minivan ran a red light, and your Sunday turned into surgery, stitches, and a bike that looks like it got into a fight with a garbage truck. “I swear I didn’t see you,” the driver says. Awesome. So now your medical costs are piling up, and their insurance company is acting like you asked to be sent into space. That’s not fair. That’s the punchline, and you’re the punchline. Learn how a skilled McAllen TX motorcycle collision attorney can help you get fair compensation after your accident.

For more than 27 years, Geoffrey Dashner has been working on personal injury claims. He has helped more than 12,000 Texans, including those in McAllen and the Rio Grande Valley. He doesn’t think of motorbike crashes as small accidents. He knows that bikes don’t protect you at all. A crash at 30 mph can break your pelvis, tear up your nerves, or give you a concussion that lasts for months. What about the law in Texas? You don’t need a helmet if you’re over 21 and have insurance or took a safety course. But even if it wouldn’t have made a difference, the opposing side will still say your injuries were your fault because you weren’t wearing a helmet.

Time is a thief after a crash. The security footage is erased. Witnesses go to Laredo. The first summer rain washes away the tire marks. You have two years to make a claim in Texas, but waiting even a few weeks can hurt your case. This is something that insurance companies know. They’ll give you $5,000 while you’re still on crutches, thinking you’ll take it right away before you realize that your back injury needs six months of physical treatment. Dashner doesn’t play that game. He’ll get phone records to show that he was distracted, get traffic cam logs, and even find the gas station clerk who saw everything happen.

Riding isn’t simply a way to get around; it’s also your therapy, your escape, and your moving meditation. When someone breaks that up, it’s not only a physical loss. You might jump every time a truck starts up. You might have sold your bike because you can’t force yourself to swing your leg over it again. That’s actual harm. And even if you share some culpability, you can still get money back under Texas’ modified comparative fault law, as long as it’s less than 51%. But good luck explaining that to an adjuster who has already written “rider error” into their system before your cast even dries.

Dashner Law doesn’t give your case to a paralegal or an intern who just graduated from law school. Geoffrey takes care of your case himself, from the first call to the last check. No scripts. No corporate nonsense. Just honest discourse and tough support for bikers who got hit by a car and weren’t really at fault. Don’t allow the system drive over you like a runaway semi if your ride ended in pain, paperwork, and worry. Get someone who knows how to win to help you fight back.
