Riders Have Rights — And George Knows How to Defend Them
Motorcyclists are killed in traffic crashes at a rate 28 times higher than passenger vehicle occupants per mile traveled. When a crash happens, insurance companies — and sometimes juries — start with an assumption of rider fault. "They shouldn't have been on a motorcycle." "They were going too fast."
George Oginni knows these arguments. He knows how to counter them with evidence — accident reconstruction, traffic camera footage, witness accounts, and expert testimony — and he fights relentlessly to put responsibility where it actually belongs: on the driver who cut you off, turned without looking, or opened a door in your path.
Common Causes of Motorcycle Crashes
The most common motorcycle accident — a car turning left across traffic fails to see an oncoming rider.
Drivers who don't check blind spots before changing lanes strike motorcyclists without warning.
A parked car door flung open into a motorcycle lane — often catastrophic and entirely preventable.
Distracted drivers rear-ending a stopped or slowing motorcycle at traffic signals.
Potholes, oil slicks, loose gravel, and debris that barely affect cars can be fatal on a motorcycle.
Impaired drivers who fail to recognize motorcycles in traffic until it's far too late.

Texas Motorcycle Law: What Riders Need to Know
Under Texas's modified comparative fault rule, your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault. Insurance companies aggressively try to assign maximum fault to riders. George fights this by building a thorough accident reconstruction that establishes the other driver's liability clearly and early.
You have 2 years from the crash date to file your claim in Texas. Call sooner — evidence fades fast, and early legal involvement dramatically improves outcomes.
