How Crashes Happen Around Saratoga and Why They Keep Happening

Saratoga isn’t immune to danger. Whether you’re riding near Congress Park or stuck in heavy traffic near the Route 50 Bridge, you’re surrounded by drivers who don’t check blind spots, ignore turn signals, or treat you like a hazard. We’ve seen it all, and we know what to do about it.

Saratoga Springs roads are especially brutal on riders during busy weekends, construction season, and bad weather. And it’s not just careless drivers - potholes, unmarked hazards, and poor signage all add to the danger. When that crash happens, it’s always the biker who pays the highest price.

Under Section 388 of New York’s Vehicle and Traffic Law, the owner of a vehicle is liable for the negligence of anyone driving it. That means the person behind the wheel, and the person who let them drive, can both be held accountable.

We Go After Every Type of Compensation You’re Owed

Every motorcycle accident leaves a trail of damages and we fight to make sure none of it gets ignored or underpaid.

• Medical expenses, from emergency care to long-term rehab. Whether you needed a single hospital visit or months of physical therapy, those bills add up. We track every treatment, every prescription, and every appointment. We make sure you're not stuck paying out of pocket.
• Lost wages now and lost earning potential later. If you missed work or can’t go back to the same job, you should be paid for every dollar lost. That includes gig work, tips, commissions, and salary. No source of income is too small to count.
• Pain, suffering, lifestyle changes, and emotional trauma. When you can’t ride, can’t sleep, or can’t enjoy your life the same way, it matters. These losses are harder to measure, but New York law allows for them. We don’t stop until they're acknowledged.
• Future medical care and mobility support. Surgeries, adaptive devices, therapy - if you’ll need help tomorrow, it should be paid for today. We bring in experts to estimate those future costs. Your settlement should reflect the full picture.

Who’s Responsible Might Not Be Who You Expect

It’s not always just “the other driver.” In many cases, liability extends further than most people think. That’s why our personal injury attorneys start every case by mapping out all the players who might owe you.

We look at whether the other driver was on the job at the time. If they were working, their employer could be liable for your injuries. This often brings larger insurance policies and better chances at full recovery.

We also investigate local road conditions. Under General Municipal Law Section 50-e, you’ve only got 90 days to file a Notice of Claim if the city (or one of its employees) shares the blame. That window closes fast and we don’t let it pass you by.

Defective helmets, failed brakes, or other faulty gear? You could also have a product liability claim. These cases fall under Section 214-c of the Civil Practice Law & Rules and often involve out-of-state corporations, but we’re not afraid to take them on.

The Deadline to Sue Comes Faster Than You Think

You’ve only got so long to file a claim and missing the deadline could cost you everything. Here’s what we make sure every rider in Saratoga Springs knows about their timeline.

• Three years from the crash to file a personal injury lawsuit. That’s what CPLR Section 214 gives you, but waiting too long risks losing evidence. Photos fade, witnesses disappear, and the other side builds a defense. Starting early strengthens your case. We make sure your story is told with the detail and urgency it deserves.
• Only 90 days to notify the government of a claim. If your crash involved a city bus, a police vehicle, or a damaged public road, your time limit is tighter. You’ve got just three months to file a formal Notice of Claim under General Municipal Law Section 50-e. We move quickly so no door closes on your rights.
• Filing early means negotiating from strength. Insurance companies treat early claims more seriously. They know we’re not here to stall. We’re here to win. That urgency gets you better offers, faster outcomes, and more respect. We make sure your story is told with the detail and urgency it deserves.
• You don’t need everything figured out to start. You don’t need your records or the police report in hand before calling. That’s what our motorcycle injury lawyers are here for. The moment you reach out, we’ll start protecting your case.
