If you or a loved one was harmed in a motorcycle accident, our Naples motorcycle accident lawyers can seek fair compensation for your physical, emotional, and financial losses.

Why Should I Hire Meirowitz & Wasserberg for My Motorcycle Accident Case in Naples?
Experienced legal representation can make all the difference in the world when handling a motorcycle accident case. The stakes are high, and you need a reputable legal team on your side to fight for the full compensation you deserve. Our attorneys have decades of experience handling motorcycle accident cases throughout Florida. We’ve recovered over $360 million in settlements and verdicts for our clients.
These results are no accident. We earn our success through an aggressive approach, thorough preparation, and meticulous attention to detail. Our team is not afraid to stand up to insurance companies and fight for the maximum compensation available under the law. These companies often try to downplay the severity of motorcycle accidents or shift blame onto the motorcyclist. As nationally recognized trial lawyers, we know how to counter these tactics with strong evidence and persuasive arguments.
Case Results and Settlements
Our track record speaks for itself. Here are just a few of the high-value case results we have secured for our clients:
- $790,000 – We represented a woman who was involved in a three-car collision that was started by a commercial vehicle that hit another car, which ultimately collided with our client. She suffered injuries to her spine that resulted in fusion surgery.
- $700,000 – Our client was a 41-year-old passenger injured in a one-car accident in which the driver was speeding and lost control. She sustained fractures to her foot, thumb, and ribs. We fought the defendant all the way to the eve of trial, but they decided to settle rather than face a jury.
- $1,175,000 – Our 60-year-old client was involved in a three-car rear-end chain collision. She suffered injuries requiring emergency surgery that left her temporarily paralyzed. The defendant claimed to have only $25,000 in insurance coverage, but our firm discovered a larger policy, allowing us to settle for a much higher amount than originally offered.
How Long Do I Have to File a Motorcycle Accident Claim in Naples?
Under Florida Statutes § 95.11, there is a two-year statute of limitations for most personal injury claims, including motorcycle accident claims. This means you normally have two years from the date of the accident to take legal action. Missing the applicable deadline could mean losing your right to seek compensation for your losses.
Aside from the statute of limitations, it is important to act quickly after a motorcycle accident because evidence can disappear and witnesses’ memories may fade. The sooner you get help from our motorcycle accident lawyers in Naples, the better your chances of building a compelling case and obtaining a favorable result.
What Compensation Is Available in a Naples Motorcycle Accident Case?
You can seek compensation for the full extent of your damages in a motorcycle accident case. This may include economic damages and non-economic damages, such as:
- Past and future medical expenses, including hospital stays, surgeries, medications, and physical therapy.
- Lost wages and diminished earning capacity due to the accident’s impact on your ability to work.
- Disability-related expenses, including home or vehicle modifications and mobility devices.
- Property damage, including the cost of repairing or replacing your motorcycle.
- Pain and suffering, including physical and emotional distress resulting from the accident.
Punitive damages may also be available if the at-fault party’s actions were particularly reckless or intentional. Florida courts award punitive damages in rare cases to punish the defendant and deter similar behavior.
