Motorcycle Accident Attorney in Wyoming
Motorcyclists are among the most at-risk drivers on the road due to their vulnerability compared to other vehicles. This makes motorcycle accidents different from auto accidents, since the motorcyclist is in more danger and is more easily injured, and often are more severely injured and at higher risk for fatalities. Motorcyclists have the same rights on the road as other types of drivers, however, other drivers often ignore these rights and argue that if a motorcycle accident occurs, it’s the motorcyclist’s fault.
Wyoming motorcycle laws protect Wyoming bikers with requirements made to keep you safe. Wyoming motorcycle laws include:
- The motorcycle needs to have a rear-view mirror.
- The handlebar grips need to be below shoulder height.
- Riding between cars (lane-splitting) is illegal.
- A license and liability insurance are required.
- Helmets are required for riders 18 and under.
- Protective eyewear is not required.
- The bike must have a passenger seat and footrest to carry a passenger.
- Sharing lanes with other motorcycles is permitted if both consent.
- Motorcycles have the right to use a full lane.
Oftentimes, motorcycle accidents aren’t the fault of the motorcyclists but rather result from the negligence and ignorance of other drivers. If you’ve been victim to a motorcycle accident, it’s important to hire legal representation as soon as possible. Insurance adjusters are focused on saving money, not paying you your deserved compensation. The attorneys at LeBaron & Jensen are experienced with motorcycle accidents and have the knowledge and experience to ensure you receive a fair settlement. We do the work for you so you can focus on recovery.
Common Causes Of Motorcycle Accidents
Motorcycle riders are 29 times more likely to die in an accident than a passenger in a car and are 4 times more likely to be injured, according to the NHTSA. Motorcycle accidents commonly result in serious injury, especially with how much more vulnerable riders are compared to drivers and passengers of other vehicles. They are more likely to cause more severe damage and injury in comparison to auto accidents.
Some common causes of motorcycle accidents include:
- Cars failing to yield right of way.
- Other vehicles coming into your lane without signaling.
- Cars trying to pass you in the same lane instead of changing lanes to do so.
- The driver of the car not seeing the motorcycle.
- Spilled objects on the road.
- Vehicles following motorcycles too closely.
Unfortunately, other drivers often behave as though motorcycles do not exist or are not entitled to the same rights as their vehicles on the road. When motorcycle accidents occur, people argue it’s the motorcyclist’s fault, but more often than not, this isn’t the case. If you were injured in a motorcycle accident, hiring a motorcycle accident attorney will ensure that you receive fair and dedicated representation in order to get the compensation you deserve.

I had a great experience with LeBaron & Jensen P.C. They kept in contact with me throughout the entire process, and were extremely informative and explained anything I didn’t understand about the proceedings of the case. I would highly recommend LeBaron & Jensen to anyone seeking Legal representation. I was driving westbound on Highway 193 in Clearfield Utah, when I came to the intersection of 1000 East and Highway 193. I noticed that a firetruck was travelling east towards the intersection with its emergency lights on, all traffic around me, including myself, slowed to a stop to allow the firetruck an unimpeded path to travel. However, I noticed the Jeep behind me wasn’t slowing down. There wasn’t anything I could do to avoid the collision, so I just braced for impact. Although I was wearing my seatbelt, I still suffered many injuries to my neck, shoulders, back, and arms. About a month after the accident I finally sought medical help for my injuries. I underwent many years of treatment for my accident-related injuries, including a carpel tunnel surgery and 2 rhyzotomy procedures, x-rays, MRIs causing me to incur over $60,000 in medical expenses. I decided I should seek legal help with my case, as I knew there was no way I could pay my medical expenses on my own. The legal team at LeBaron & Jensen were exceptional. They were able to negotiate with my health insurance and medical providers, lowering costs where they could. When all my legal and medical fees were paid, I was left with over $79,000. This money will help me pay for the future treatment that I will have to receive to try and help alleviate my future pain and suffering. I’m grateful for LeBaron & Jensen P.C. and everyone there who helped with my case! I thank them every day for the patience and persistence it took to see this through to a beneficial end.

LeBaron & Jensen did a great job for me, kept me informed throughout the process, and helped make sure that I got the compensation I needed. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone who is suffering after an accident like mine. I was driving eastbound on Highway 193, a four-lane highway in Layton, Utah. I came to a stop at the two-way intersection of Highway 193 and North Hills Drive. The other driver failed to yield to my right-of-way and proceeded southbound through the intersection, I wasn’t able to stop fast enough, and I T-boned the other vehicle at a high speed. The impact of the crash was so severe that it triggered my vehicle’s airbags. The severity of the crash caused many serious and extensive injuries to my neck, back, shoulders, and head. Thankfully, I was restrained by my seatbelt, which prevented any worse injuries. I had to receive treatment for over a year and a half following the accident, including surgery on one of my shoulders. I was faced with $76,000 in medical bills. I knew I needed help, so I contacted LeBaron & Jensen P.C. Their attorneys worked diligently and negotiated with my insurance providers. After paying all my medical and legal fees, I was still able to pocket $51,000 to compensate for the pain, and suffering I endured because of the accident.

In January of 2014, my husband was involved in a terrible accident. He was driving on highway 89 in Wellsville, UT, when another driver ran a stop sign and pulled out in front of him. He tried to swerve out of the way, but he wasn’t able to avoid hitting the other vehicle. The resulting impact was so severe that even though he was wearing a seatbelt, he was violently thrown around in the cab of his truck and, as a result, hit his head on the windshield. This caused many injuries to his shoulders, back, and neck. My husband also suffered massive bruising and internal damage, and that’s not even the full extent of the injuries he suffered. He had to receive extensive treatments, including several shoulder surgeries, to try and help alleviate the pain he suffered because of the accident. Even after he underwent all those treatments he was still left in immense pain, and to top it all off, he was diagnosed with cancer in July of 2016. He decided to put off treatment for his shoulders to try and focus on his cancer treatments. He passed away in October of 2017. LeBaron & Jensen were there fighting for us through it all. They were able to get a settlement that covered all of Robert’s accident-related medical bills and all the required legal fees and additional money for his pain and suffering as a result of the accident. I’m so grateful for LeBaron & Jensen and all their support for myself and my husband through the years.

- When I tried to get coverage from the other driver’s insurance, they denied it. They told me that they had canceled the policy only a few days before the accident. The attorneys at LeBaron & Jensen P.C. were able to force the other driver’s insurance to pay out her policy limits of $25k plus replacing my car. I even ended up with a little money to set aside, that was important because this accident left me permanently disabled. The LeBaron & Jensen team negotiated with my health insurance provider and my other health care providers to reduce the costs of my medical expenses. I am very thankful for their professional service, and hard work. I couldn’t have negotiated on my own, I needed every ounce of energy to recover.Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness
