One of the most common causes of motorcycle accidents

"Sorry, I didn't see you." We've heard it too.

A driver failing to look properly is the single biggest cause of serious motorcycle collisions in the UK. They pull out of junctions, turn across your path, change lanes into you, or fling a door open without checking - then their insurer tries to make it your problem.

When you’re knocked off, the details decide everything - your road position, whether you were filtering, how the driver “didn’t see you.” Most high-street firms have never been on a bike, so they miss the things that win cases. Insurers know it.

That's where it gets unfair. Insurers know most solicitors don't understand how bikers ride, so they lean on it - questioning your speed, your filtering, your road position. We've been in every one of these situations on our own bikes, and we know how to dismantle the "I didn't see them" defence.

We don’t. We’ve ridden the same roads and dealt with the same drivers who pull out without looking - and that’s how we spot the detail that turns a knocked-back claim into a winning one. You only get one shot at this claim. Make it count.

The three scenarios

We know exactly how your accident happened.

Vehicle turning or pulling out

A driver pulled out of a junction or turned across you because they misjudged your speed or didn't look. These are some of the most common - and most winnable - biker claims.

No Win No Fee

Filtering accidents

You were filtering legally through slow or stationary traffic when a vehicle changed lane or turned into you. Insurers love to blame the rider for filtering - but it's legal, and we know how to prove it.

No Win No Fee

Dooring accidents

A parked car's door opened straight into your path because the driver or passenger never checked their mirror. The law is clear on who's responsible, and it isn't you.

No Win No Fee

Why you need a biker solicitor

The difference is, we actually ride.

A generic personal injury firm doesn't understand filtering, road positioning, or how an insurer will twist those things against you. To them, your claim is just another file.

The Biker Lawyers are led by Fergus Dalgarno - 45 years on two wheels and 25 years as a specialist motorcycle solicitor. He’s been there himself: seriously injured, bike written off, and back on the road again. We’re not a call centre - we’re the people who’ll be with you for every journey.

To us, it's personal. Led by Fergus Dalgarno - 45 years riding, 25 years a specialist motorcycle solicitor - our team has spent decades winning the cases other firms get wrong. When the insurer says you should have seen it coming, you want a solicitor who can say: so should their driver.

Can't travel because of your injuries? No problem - we visit clients at home or in hospital, anywhere in the country.

A case like yours

How biker knowledge won Steve's case.

£100k+

Settlement recovered for Steve

The detail others missed: Steve's bike had ABS as standard - and ABS bikes don't leave traditional skid marks. The "speeding" evidence collapsed.

A tractor pulled out of a field directly into Steve's path. He braked hard, lost control and slid into its trailer - and was left seriously injured. His previous "biker specialist" firm accepted the police report, which used skid marks to argue Steve had been speeding. That nearly sank his claim.

Then Fergus spotted what everyone else had missed - and once challenged, the case turned completely. Steve settled for well over £100,000.

That's the difference a solicitor who actually rides can make.

Every claim is different and past results are not a guarantee of the outcome of your case.
