ON YOUR SIDE FOR EVERY RIDE ✦

Wisconsin’s Motorcycle Law Firm for riders and families facing serious injury and loss.

Motorcycle crashes change lives in seconds. The road that once meant freedom can suddenly mean pain, uncertainty, medical bills, and pressure from insurance companies that would rather blame the rider than take responsibility.

If you were injured in a motorcycle accident in Wisconsin, or if someone you love was killed in a crash, you are likely dealing with far more than physical harm. You are facing decisions that will affect the rest of your life.

At McCarthy Motorcycle Law, motorcycle accident and wrongful death cases are not a side practice. They are the core of what we do.

A Motorcycle Law Firm, By Design

We are known as Wisconsin’s Motorcycle Law Firm because our practice was built around motorcycle cases from the start.

Motorcycle crashes are different from car accidents. The injuries are more severe, the investigations are more complex, and the bias against riders is very real. Many general personal injury firms say they handle motorcycle cases, but quietly avoid them or treat them like ordinary auto claims.

We do not.

We focus on motorcycle accident injuries and fatal motorcycle crashes because these cases demand:

  • A deep understanding of how motorcycle crashes happen

  • Early, aggressive investigation

  • The ability to push back against unfair rider blame

  • A willingness to prepare every case like it’s going to trial

That focus matters for outcomes.

Serving Other Vulnerable Road Users Through Motorcycle Expertise

Because our work centers on protecting motorcyclists, we also represent other vulnerable road users who face the same risks on Wisconsin roads.

These include:

We do not approach these cases as general injury claims. We approach them with the same rider‑focused mindset that defines our motorcycle practice.

Wisconsin Motorcycle Accident Law: What You Should Know

Under Wisconsin law, motorcyclists have the same rights as any other motorist. When a crash is caused by negligence, you may be entitled to compensation for the harm you have suffered.

Motorcycle accident compensation may include:

  • Medical expenses and future treatment

  • Lost wages and reduced earning capacity

  • Pain, suffering, and emotional distress

  • Permanent injury or disability

  • Scarring or disfigurement

  • Property damage

Wisconsin follows a comparative negligence rule. Even if you were partially at fault, you can still recover compensation as long as you were not more than 50 percent responsible. Insurance companies know this and often work aggressively to shift blame onto riders to avoid full payment.
