Injured in a Motorcycle Crash in Fresno? Speak With a Real Biker Attorney
A motorcycle crash in Fresno is not just another auto case – it requires an attorney who understands how riders think, ride, and get hurt.
I am Norman Gregory Fernandez, a California personal injury attorney and lifelong biker who represents injured riders throughout Fresno County County and all of California.
Treating a motorcycle crash like a routine auto case is a serious mistake.
Bikes handle, brake, and react differently, and riders have almost no physical protection. Many lawyers have never been on a motorcycle and don’t know how a split-second decision can mean the difference between life and death.
As both a rider and an attorney, I use that knowledge to build strong cases for injured bikers in Fresno and nearby areas including Clovis, Coalinga, Firebaugh, and Fowler.
Watch: What Injured Riders in Fresno Need to Know
This video covers what injured riders in and around Fresno should know about dealing with insurance companies, police reports, and jury prejudice.
Motorcycle Crashes in Fresno and Fresno County County
Fresno and the surrounding communities of Clovis, Coalinga, Firebaugh, and Fowler see
heavy traffic and frequent lane changes
that create serious dangers for motorcyclists.
All it takes is one driver looking at a phone instead of the road to destroy a rider’s life.
Common causes of motorcycle accidents in and around Fresno include:
Drivers turning left in front of oncoming motorcycles
• Unsafe lane changes on major roads and freeways serving Fresno and nearby Clovis and Coalinga
• Distracted drivers who fail to see motorcycles
• Following too closely and rear-end collisions
• Road hazards like potholes, debris, gravel, and bad pavement
Because motorcycles offer so little protection, even a “minor” impact can cause major injuries.
Common Motorcycle Accident Injuries in Fresno
Motorcycle crashes in Fresno and throughout Fresno County County often result in:
• Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
• Fractured legs, arms, ribs, pelvis, and collarbones
• Severe road rash and skin loss that sometimes requires grafts
• Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
• Internal organ injuries and internal bleeding
• Soft tissue injuries and chronic pain
Many insurance companies treat motorcycle injuries as if they were no different than a fender-bender.
My job is to work with your doctors and experts to prove the full extent of your injuries.
California Motorcycle Laws and Rider Bias
California has unique motorcycle laws, including legal lane splitting, strict helmet rules, and comparative negligence.
Many riders in Fresno are shocked when reports assume the crash was their fault.
As both a biker and a lawyer, I understand:
• How lane splitting must be evaluated
• How helmet issues affect a claim
• How comparative negligence works
• How to overcome prejudice against riders in a jury’s mind
Insurance companies often assume riders are reckless — but the law says otherwise.
What to Do After a Motorcycle Accident in Fresno
After a motorcycle crash in Fresno or nearby Clovis, Coalinga, Firebaugh, or Fowler, you should:
• Seek immediate medical care
• Photograph the scene, bike damage, gear, and injuries
• Collect witness and driver info
• Avoid recorded statements
• Contact a motorcycle accident attorney who rides
The steps you take early on can make or break your claim.
