Tom Kemmy is an award-winning and board certified personal injury lawyer who has been practicing injury law since 1986.

We put our combined experience and knowledge in the pursuit of one goal, to win and obtain maximum justice for our client. 

Do You Need an Odessa Motorcycle Accident Lawyer?

Motorcycle accidents are rarely simple or minor. When you are involved in a motorcycle crash, you may sustain significant injuries, such as a traumatic brain injury (TBI), multiple broken bones, spinal cord injury, or paralysis. With severe motorcycle injuries comes the need for substantial medical care. You may be in the hospital for days or weeks. You may need months of physical therapy. All of this comes at a high cost, even if you have health insurance.

Early intervention is essential to building a strong case for compensation.

By contacting Kemmy Law Firm within days of your collision, you have an experienced motorcycle accident lawyer ready to dive into an in-depth investigation. We will immediately take steps to gather as much evidence as possible. This includes the police report, photos or videos of the crash, and eyewitness statements.

We commonly find that potentially relevant evidence is under the other party’s control. Because of this, we take steps to preserve that evidence by sending the other parties a Preservation of Evidence letter. This places them on notice that you will pursue a personal injury lawsuit and demand that evidence.

While we investigate, we may recommend filing a personal injury lawsuit. Through the discovery phase, we will use every legal tool at our disposal to gather additional evidence. Filing suit also shows the insurance company you are serious about your claim.

You may receive a settlement offer, but we recommend you review it carefully before accepting it. Quick settlement offers tend to be lower than what your claim is worth.

Our motorcycle injury lawyers understand the nuances involved in motorcycle crashes and address those differences appropriately.

We Take Odessa Motorcycle Accident Cases to Trial and Win

A majority of motorcycle accident claims settle. However, that does not mean you should ignore litigation. Trial preparations are an essential step in the claim process. Without taking full advantage of the discovery process during litigation, you may not have the information you need to strengthen your case. You may miss a piece of crucial evidence that could lead to a higher settlement.

This is why it is essential to work with an experienced litigator. We may believe it is possible to obtain a fair settlement, even though an insurance company is bound to offer less than your case is worth initially. By pursuing a thorough investigation and utilizing discovery, our Odessa injury attorneys will have the evidence and leverage we need to demand more. Our priority is to win the compensation you need in the long run.

If an insurer refuses to be reasonable and settle for a fair amount, we are not afraid to take your case to trial. Our motorcycle accident attorneys have decades of litigation experience and an impressive record of obtaining court awards in our clients’ favor.

We have won more than $50 million in settlements and verdicts in the past two years.
