Motorcycle Accident Lawyer San Diego
San Diego's Trusted Motorcycle Accident Law Firm — As Voted by SD Magazine
San Diego’s Trusted Motorcycle Accident Lawyer
Getting hurt on a motorcycle is different from getting hurt in a car. The injuries are worse. The recovery is longer. And the insurance company on the other side is often already building a case against you — leaning on the "reckless biker" bias before you've left the hospital.
Batta Fulkerson has been fighting for riders in San Diego for years. We've recovered nearly $250 million for injury victims across Southern California and our success rate is 98%. You pay nothing unless we win, everytime.

Dedicated Motorcycle Injury Lawyer Ready To Put YOU First!!!
Motorcycle accident cases are unique — not just legally, but because of the bias riders face. Insurance companies and opposing attorneys know the "reckless biker" stereotype and they use it. An adjuster doesn't need it to be true; they just need to plant the idea and watch your settlement shrink.
Paul and Dan built this firm knowing that. They've handled thousands of cases in San Diego and Southern California, and they know exactly how to dismantle the narrative before it takes hold — with evidence, with legal strategy, and when necessary, in a courtroom.
San Diego Motorcycle Accident Attorney
Receive the Maximum Compensation You're Owed
When you're injured in a motorcycle crash, you're entitled to recover more than just your medical bills. California law allows you to pursue economic damages (medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, future care costs) and non-economic damages (pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life). California doesn't cap non-economic damages in personal injury cases — everything is on the table.The insurance company will calculate these numbers to minimize what they pay. Batta Fulkerson calculates them the other way. With nearly $250 million recovered and a 98% success rate, We know what these cases are worth and how to get there.
See what your motorcycle accident settlement in California can be worth.
What should I do after an motorcycle accident?
1. Call 911. Even if you feel okay, get a police report on record. It's the one document insurance companies can't easily rewrite.
2. Get medical care immediately. Adrenaline masks pain. TBI and internal injuries don't always show symptoms at the scene. A gap in treatment becomes a gap in your case.
3. Document everything. Photos of the scene, your injuries, the vehicles, the road, skid marks. Get the other driver's insurance and contact information. Witness names and numbers if there are any.
4. Don't talk to the insurance company. Their adjuster will call quickly and sound helpful. They're not on your side. Don't give a recorded statement before speaking with an attorney.
5. Call Batta Fulkerson. We handle everything from there — communications, evidence, negotiations. You focus on healing.
How a motorcycle accident accident lawyer help me?
The right attorney changes the outcome of your case — not just the settlement amount, but how fast you get there and how much stress you carry in the meantime. At Batta Fulkerson, Paul or Dan picks up the phone directly. There's no case manager you've never met. From day one they investigate independently, communicate with insurance companies so you don't have to, and build the strongest possible case whether it settles or goes to trial.
They've recovered nearly $250 million for injured clients across San Diego and California — with a 98% success rate across 15,000+ cases.
Getting Justice when you need it most.
California gives motorcycle accident victims two years from the date of the crash to file a personal injury lawsuit (CCP § 335.1). If a government entity was involved — a city vehicle, a road defect the city knew about — that window is just six months. Miss the deadline and you lose your right to recover, permanently.
Don't wait. Insurance companies assign teams to your case immediately after the accident. You should have someone in your corner just as fast.

California Motorcycle Accident Law: What Riders Need to Know
California follows pure comparative negligence — meaning you can recover compensation even if you share some fault for the crash. If you're 25% at fault, you recover 75% of your damages. Insurance companies know this rule well, and they'll try to inflate your percentage of blame to push your payout down. That's exactly what Batta Fulkerson pushes back on.
Lane splitting is legal in California under Assembly Bill 51 (2016). Riding between lanes doesn't eliminate your rights if another driver's inattention caused the crash.
California requires helmets for all motorcycle riders (CVC § 27803). Not wearing one doesn't bar you from recovery — but insurers will raise it. We know how to handle that argument.
