Cases Won
No Upfront Fees, No Risk to You
At Wettermark Keith, we work on a contingency-fee basis. This means you don’t pay us a cent unless we win your case. If we’re able to recover compensation for you, our fee is taken from the settlement so you don’t have any upfront costs or hourly fees.
In a rare case where we’re not able to recover compensation, there may be some case-related costs, such as court fees or expert witness fees, but we’ll provide a clear breakdown of all potential expenses from the start so that there are no unexpected costs later on.

At Wettermark Keith, we handle all the legal work, so you don’t have to worry about negotiations or dealing with insurance companies.

Types of Compensation You May Be Entitled To
The impact of a motorcycle accident can be significant, affecting you physically, emotionally, and financially. At Wettermark Keith, we fight to ensure that you receive compensation for all the ways your life has been affected. Here are some types of compensation you may be entitled to:
- Medical Costs: From emergency room visits to physical therapy, we work to recover full compensation for your medical treatment.
- Lost Income: If your injuries prevent you from working, we’ll seek compensation for your lost wages, and we will also ensure future lost income is factored into your claim.
- Property Damage: Whether it’s the total loss of your motorcycle or damage to other property like your helmet or phone, we will work to recover the full cost of replacing or repairing your property.
- Pain and Suffering: We will fight for compensation for the physical and emotional pain you’ve endured, including the lasting impact on your quality of life.
- Emotional Trauma: If your accident has led to PTSD, depression, or other emotional distress, we’ll work to ensure this is accounted for in your case.
- Loss of Companionship: If your injuries have strained or severed your relationships with family or loved ones, we will seek compensation for the emotional damages caused.
Why You Should Hire a Motorcycle Accident Attorney
If you’ve been injured in a motorcycle accident, having an experienced attorney is crucial. Motorcycle accidents involve unique challenges, such as helmet laws, lane splitting, and road hazards. A personal injury lawyer understands these nuances and ensures they’re applied to your case.
Insurance companies often offer quick settlements that fall far below what you deserve. It may be tempting, but don’t accept the offer without speaking to an attorney first. A skilled attorney will negotiate on your behalf to secure a fair settlement, ensuring your best interests are protected.
The legal system can be overwhelming, especially with serious injuries. A motorcycle accident lawyer protects your rights, ensuring you're not taken advantage of by any party involved, whether it’s the insurance company or negligent drivers.
Lastly, hiring an attorney allows you to focus on your recovery. While you heal, your lawyer will handle the legal work, gather evidence, and fight for the compensation you deserve.
Common Motorcycle Accident Injuries
Motorcycle accidents often result in severe injuries due to the lack of protection compared to other vehicles. Some of the most common injuries we handle include:
- Road rash and severe skin injuries
- Broken bones (arms, legs, ribs, pelvis)
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) and concussions
- Spinal cord injuries, including paralysis
- Facial trauma and dental injuries
- Internal injuries or organ damage
- Emotional trauma like PTSD
It’s crucial to seek medical attention even if you don’t feel injured right away. Many injuries take time to manifest symptoms.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Tennessee follows a comparative fault rule, meaning that you may still be able to recover compensation even if you were partially at fault. The percentage of fault assigned to each party will affect the amount of compensation you can receive. We’ll help you understand how this affects your case.
The length of your case will depend on various factors, including the complexity of the accident, the severity of your injuries, and the willingness of the insurance company to settle. While some cases settle quickly outside of court, others may take longer if litigation is required. We will keep you updated throughout the process.
Yes. While wearing protective gear like a helmet and jacket is important, not wearing them won’t automatically bar you from recovering compensation. Tennessee law allows for comparative fault, meaning your compensation may be reduced if your injuries were more severe due to the lack of gear.
The strength of your case depends on several factors, including the evidence we can gather, the severity of your injuries, and whether the other party was at fault. Our team will conduct a thorough investigation to evaluate your case and advise you on the best course of action.
While you have the right to represent yourself, navigating the legal process can be complicated. An experienced attorney will ensure that you receive the full compensation you deserve by handling negotiations, collecting evidence, and preparing your case for trial if necessary.
