Top Motorcycle Injury Lawyer Serving Sacramento
When a rider goes down in Sacramento, California, the last thing you need is a lawyer who has never thrown a leg over a bike.
I am Norman Gregory Fernandez, a California personal injury attorney and lifelong biker who represents injured riders throughout Sacramento 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. Most personal injury attorneys do not ride and don’t truly understand these differences.
As both a rider and an attorney, I use that knowledge to build strong cases for injured bikers in Sacramento and nearby areas including Citrus Heights, Elk Grove, Folsom, and Galt.
Watch: What Injured Riders in Sacramento Need to Know
In this short video, I explain what really happens after a motorcycle crash in California, how insurance companies treat riders, and why biker cases must be handled differently than car accidents.
Motorcycle Crashes in Sacramento and Sacramento County County
Sacramento and the surrounding communities of Citrus Heights, Elk Grove, Folsom, and Galt see
a mix of local traffic, commuters, and tourists
that create serious dangers for motorcyclists.
Even when a rider does everything right, one careless driver can cause a catastrophic crash.
Common causes of motorcycle accidents in and around Sacramento include:
Drivers turning left in front of oncoming motorcycles
• Unsafe lane changes on major roads and freeways serving Sacramento and nearby Citrus Heights and Elk Grove
• Distracted drivers who fail to see motorcycles
• Following too closely and rear-end collisions
• Road hazards like potholes, debris, gravel, and bad pavement
When a car or truck hits a bike, the motorcyclist absorbs the full force of the impact.
Common Motorcycle Accident Injuries in Sacramento
Motorcycle crashes in Sacramento and throughout Sacramento 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 Sacramento 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 Sacramento
After a motorcycle crash in Sacramento or nearby Citrus Heights, Elk Grove, Folsom, or Galt, 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.
