The Dolan Law Firm, founded by Attorney Christopher Dolan, has achieved jury verdicts and settlements in scooter, bicycle and motorcycle accident cases in the tens of millions of dollars, including some of the highest damage awards for motorcyclists and bicyclists in California. Attorneys in our law firm represent bicycle and motorcycle accident plaintiffs throughout the Bay Area, including San Francisco, Oakland, San Jose, Alameda, Santa Cruz, and Santa Clara, California.
Attorney Christopher Dolan is a motorcyclist who has logged more than 250,000 miles across five countries on four different bikes. He understands both the risk of motorcycle, bicycle and scooter accidents and the potentially devastating results. Chris Dolan understands the culture of motorcycling and cycling, and offers strong advocacy for motorcyclists, cyclists and scooter riders and their passengers who are injured as a result of another's recklessness or carelessness. Chris Dolan is also a strong advocate of motorcyclists’ and cyclists’ rights. He participated in a rally on City Hall in an effort to get lawmakers to pay attention to the needs of bikers.
Our attorneys have the experience and the resources to fully investigate the scene of a scooter, bicycle or motorcycle accident. We can help establish liability of the part of the other driver related to speeding, running red lights, illegal left turns and improper lane changes, driving recklessly, driving inattentively, or driving drunk. We can also represent motorcyclists or bicyclists injured as a result of defective products or parts, such as helmets, tires, inner tubes, swing arms, chains, brakes, throttle cables, pedals, toe clips or brake cables. And as the above cases demonstrate, our attorneys regularly handle cases of motorcycle accidents due to dangerous roadways and unsafe conditions on public property.
Throughout our personal injury practice, our lawyers are committed to thorough case preparation designed for effective presentation to a jury. Our work is contingency-based; we collect no fee unless we collect damages. If you or someone you love has been seriously injured or killed in a California motorcycle accident or bicycle accident, our lawyers are available for skilled and knowledgeable legal counsel.
Practice Areas
Practice Areas Description
The Dolan Law Firm offers legal services on the following areas of practice:- Motorcycle Accidents
The Dolan Law Firm is committed to helping victims of scooter, bicycle and motorcycle accidents. We have handled dozens of large-scale settlements and verdicts on behalf of bikers all over California. Our motorcycle and bicycle accident attorneys are passionate about their work, in part, because they are bikers themselves. Of course, we understand California bike law very well. We feel it is our duty to tell the public what they need to know about California motorcycle, bicycle and scooter accidents.
- Bicycle Accidents
We have the experience and the resources to effectively represent bicyclists and their family members in recovering full and fair damages for catastrophic injuries and wrongful deaths. In many of our successful cases, the police report said the bicyclist was 100% at fault but we turned the case around. In bike accident cases in which the bicyclist was partially at fault, he or she may still have the right to recover partial damages.
- Road Hazards
At the Dolan Law Firm, our attorneys have a long history of gaining motorcycle accident settlements and verdicts by proving that dangerous road conditions were the true causes. We can help people who have been victimized by: roadway defects; grading highways, road resurfacing; uneven pavement; road resurfacing humps; potholes; gravel, sand and loose dirt; unsigned curves; construction debris: oil slicks or chemical spills; dangerous intersections; obscured signs and intersections; trees and vegetation blocking the view.
- Defective Equipment
In a significant number of scooter, motorcycle and bicycle accident lawsuits, defective equipment is to blame for the crash. The Dolan Law Firm has the experience and resources to take on anyone responsible for defectively designed or defectively manufactured bikes. Our lawyers can file motorcycle and bicycle accident lawsuits on behalf of people victimized by: motorcycle helmet defects; motorcycle tire failure; brake failure; shock absorber failure; stuck throttles; chain failure; Improper dealer assembly; Improper derailers; Defective pedals; Defective toe clips.
- Wrongful Death
The Dolan Law Firm’s lawyers understand your suffering and grief having experienced the tragedy of an accidental death first hand. Some of our lawyers have lost family members and loved ones in serious personal injuries, including motorcycle and bicycle accidents. We have been on both sides, as clients and attorneys, and we want to help you through the legal aspects of life’s greatest loss. When someone dies as a result of the negligence of another the law provides that their next of kin and their estate may act as plaintiffs to bring a civil action to recover economic and non-economic damages. This is true even if the deceased was partially at fault (comparatively at fault) in the events leading to the fatality. If death is the result of a drunk driver, then punitive damages may be awarded.
- Head Injuries
Serious head injuries can cause memory loss and cognitive difficulties. Things that once were easy may become difficult or impossible. A head injury can cause balance problems, coordination problems and disabling headaches. It can also cause personality changes and severe emotional distress. The injured person may no longer be able to do the work they once did. They may be able to retrain or they may not be able to work again. The loss of income and earning potential is one of the damages that your lawyer will seek in compensation. We work with a number of medical and psychological experts to obtain a complete and thorough evaluation of our client's condition, as well as expectations for recovery. This access to experts — an expense our firm covers until we achieve a settlement or verdict for you — is critical to getting successful results.
- Spinal Cord Injuries
The cost of financial recovery after a spinal cord or back injury is significant. Surgery is often required. If the injured person suffered paralysis (paraplegia or quadriplegia), the family may need to make changes to their home. The injured person will need specialized equipment, maybe a specially equipped van. If the victim was a child, new equipment will be needed as they grow. These expenses shouldn't have to be borne by the victim of an accident caused by the negligent or reckless actions of another. Founding attorney Christopher Dolan and his staff have helped hundreds of people with spinal cord, back and neck injuries get the compensation they needed with verdicts and settlements.
