Experienced Eau Claire Motorcycle Accident Lawyer

Hurt in a Motorcycle Crash in Eau Claire? We’re Here to Help

Riding through Eau Claire can be a beautiful experience—cruising the River Prairie Trail, cutting across Clairemont Avenue, or heading out of town on Highway 12. But all it takes is one distracted driver, one blind corner, or one careless mistake to turn a good ride into a nightmare.

If you’ve been hurt in a motorcycle accident in Eau Claire—or if you’ve lost someone you love—we see you. We ride too. At McCarthy Motorcycle Law, we focus on helping injured bikers and grieving families across Wisconsin. We’re proud to be known as Wisconsin’s Motorcycle Law Firm, and when we say we fight for riders, we mean it.

Why Motorcycle Accident Claims Deserve a Rider’s Approach

Motorcycle injury claims are not the same as car accident cases. Not even close. Riders face:

  • More serious injuries

  • Less physical protection

  • Prejudice from police and insurance adjusters

We know how the system treats riders because we’ve lived it. We know how to push back when they try to blame you just for choosing to ride. And we know how to tell your story the way it needs to be told—honestly, clearly, and with the strength it deserves.

Our goal isn’t just to win your case. It’s to help you get your life back.

What Causes Motorcycle Crashes in Eau Claire?

Eau Claire might not have the traffic of Milwaukee or Madison, but it has plenty of dangers for bikers. Common causes of motorcycle accidents we see in this area include:

We’ve handled cases across western Wisconsin and know the roads, the riding culture, and the common crash patterns in Eau Claire, Altoona, Chippewa Falls, and the surrounding counties.

We Help Riders—and the People Who Love Them

We represent people who’ve been:

  • Injured while riding a motorcycle

  • Injured while riding as a passenger

  • Seriously hurt due to defective bike parts or dangerous road conditions

  • Grieving the loss of a family member in a fatal motorcycle crash

If you’ve lost someone in a crash, we want you to know: you’re not alone. We’ve lost loved ones too. And while no amount of money will bring them back, a wrongful death lawsuit can help you get answers, hold the responsible party accountable, and protect your family’s financial future.

Common Injuries in Motorcycle Accidents

Because motorcycles offer so little protection, even a low-speed accident can cause devastating injuries. We’ve helped riders recover from:

We work with your doctors, physical therapists, and life care planners to make sure your long-term needs are fully understood—and fully compensated.

What Should You Do After a Motorcycle Accident in Eau Claire?

Here’s what we recommend if you or a loved one has just been in a motorcycle crash:

  1. Get medical care immediately. Even if you feel okay, internal injuries and concussions can sneak up on you.

  2. Take photos and gather info. Get pictures of the scene, your bike, your injuries, and the other vehicle(s).

  3. Don’t talk to the insurance company. They’re not on your side—and they’re trained to use your words against you.

  4. Contact a motorcycle accident lawyer. The earlier we can get involved, the better we can protect your rights.

We offer free case evaluations. We’ll listen to what happened, let you know what your options are, and if we can help, we’ll hit the ground running.

What Can You Recover in a Motorcycle Injury Claim in Eau Claire?

If someone else caused your crash—whether it was a negligent driver, a city that failed to maintain a road, or a company that built a defective part—you may be entitled to compensation for:

  • Medical expenses (past and future)

  • Lost wages and reduced earning capacity

  • Pain and suffering

  • Emotional distress and PTSD

  • Disfigurement or disability

  • Motorcycle repairs or replacement

  • Loss of companionship (in wrongful death cases)

  • Funeral and burial expenses

We don’t get paid unless we win. It’s that simple.
