Oyster Bay, NY Motorcycle Accident Lawyers 

Crashed Your Bike? You’ve Got More Power Than You Think

The crash changed everything. One ride through Cove Road ended with chaos, pain, and questions. Now you're left sorting through the aftermath - bike damage, hospital visits, missed work, and the pressure that comes with all of it.

Maybe you were headed to Oyster Bay Harbor or cutting across Pine Hollow Road. Maybe you’ve ridden these streets for years without trouble. But this time, someone didn’t check their blind spot. Someone didn’t stop. And now you’re the one dealing with the consequences.

You didn’t cause this, yet now you’re the one juggling doctor’s appointments, repair estimates, and nonstop phone calls from insurers who seem more interested in closing your claim than helping you recover.

Our experienced motorcycle accident attorneys at Horn Wright, LLP, help riders in Oyster Bay take back control. We handle the insurance battles, gather the right evidence, and build your case from the ground up.

The Truth? Local Roads Don’t Forgive Mistakes and Riders Pay the Price

Riding should feel safe. But in Oyster Bay, even one distracted driver can cause serious harm. Along South Street or East Main, vehicles cross lines, miss signals, or ignore motorcycles entirely.

Motorcyclists often face severe injuries:

  • Traumatic brain injuriesA rider thrown from a bike may hit their head, even with a helmet. These injuries can cause confusion, memory loss, and personality changes. Many victims need ongoing neurological care and long-term support.
  • Broken bones or crushed limbsArms, legs, and ribs are especially at risk during impact or when pinned under a vehicle. These injuries often require surgery, physical therapy, and extended time away from work.
  • Spinal cord damage. High-impact collisions on roads like Shore Avenue can lead to herniated discs, nerve damage, or paralysis. These are life-changing injuries that may affect everything from mobility to employment.
  • Severe road rash and lacerations. When a rider slides across pavement, layers of skin can be torn away. Some wounds become infected or require skin grafts. Scarring, both physical and emotional, can last a lifetime.

We look at more than medical costs. We focus on how the crash disrupted your routine, income, and independence.

This Is About Your Life and You Need a Lawyer Who Understands It

This isn’t just about a damaged motorcycle. It’s about the life that got disrupted. Your routines, your work, and even the simple joy of weekend rides, suddenly out of reach. These aren’t small losses. They carry real weight, and they deserve real attention.

We bring a local lens to every case. We know the sharp turns on Berry Hill Road and the tight spots along Pine Hollow. We’ve worked with Oyster Bay police, nearby clinics, and traffic investigators familiar with the area. 

That home-court advantage makes a difference. It helps us uncover details others might miss and use them to fight harder on your behalf.

Deadlines Matter. Courtrooms Do Too and We’re Ready for Both

  • New York gives you a narrow window. You typically have three years to file a personal injury lawsuit under Civil Practice Law & Rules Section 214(5). If your crash involves a town-owned vehicle or public agency, the notice of claim rule gives you just 90 days.
  • We don’t miss deadlines. From the first call, we’re tracking every legal deadline and preserving key documentation.
  • We treat every case like it’s going to trial. Most cases settle, but preparation is power. We build every file with courtroom strategy in mind.
  • Insurers know our name. They recognize our record in Nassau County courtrooms and know we won’t back down.
  • Strong preparation creates pressure. When we’re fully prepared, it forces the other side to offer the compensation you actually deserve. 

We track every deadline, from filing timelines to documentation requirements, so nothing gets missed.

While many cases settle, we prepare each one as if it’s going to court. That mindset increases your negotiating power.

Insurance Adjusters Push Their Version. We Stick to the Truth

Insurance companies move fast. They call early and act friendly, but their goal is to settle low and close the case

They’ll ask for statements while you’re still recovering. They’ll film your daily activities and claim you aren’t hurt. They may even deny valid claims over a missed form or a small error.

Many adjusters use scripts designed to sound casual while steering the conversation in their favor. They might ask leading questions or mischaracterize what you’ve said. Some even discourage you from hiring a lawyer because they know that once you do, the leverage shifts.

We've seen claims get underpaid or outright denied just because someone trusted the wrong person on the phone. That’s why we handle all communication once you bring us on board. We gather the records, review every policy, and challenge any tactic that doesn't reflect the full picture.

You deserve a case built on facts, not assumptions. We make sure the truth is clear and impossible to ignore.

The Clock’s Running, and Evidence Won’t Wait Around

Crash scenes change fast. Tire marks fade. Camera footage gets deleted. Witnesses forget.

We act immediately:

  • Dashcam and store video. Businesses near the train station or along Audrey Avenue may hold helpful footage.
  • First responder reports. Emergency medical services reports and police reports provide reliable accounts. Get them through the Nassau County Police Department.
  • Traffic data and GPS. These records help establish speeds, light changes, and movements, especially on Shore Road.
  • Photos of injuries and damage. Timestamped images show exactly what happened and how serious the harm was.

Our team also works with reconstruction experts who explain how the crash occurred based on physical evidence.
