If you were hurt in a motorcycle crash in Reno, you are in the right place. Bradley Drendel & Jeanney has fought for motorcycle accident victims across Northern Nevada for more than 60 years — and we are ready to fight for you.

No Fee Unless We Win
Hiring a motorcycle accident injury lawyer from Bradley Drendel & Jeanney costs you nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee basis — you owe no attorney fees unless we recover compensation for you. Free consultations are available 24 hours a day.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long do I have to file a motorcycle accident claim in Nevada?
Nevada's statute of limitations for personal injury claims is generally two years from the date of the accident. Missing this deadline forfeits your right to pursue compensation.
What if I was partially at fault for the motorcycle crash?
You can still recover compensation under Nevada's modified comparative negligence standard, as long as you are not more than 50% at fault. Your award is reduced by your percentage of fault.
What if the at-fault driver has no insurance?
You may file a claim under your own uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage. A motorcycle crash attorney can also identify other avenues for recovery based on your specific circumstances.
What compensation can motorcycle accident victims recover?
Recoverable damages may include medical expenses, lost wages, loss of future earning capacity, pain and suffering, property damage, and — in fatal motorcycle accident cases — wrongful death damages for surviving family members.
Does Nevada require motorcycle riders to wear helmets?
Yes. Nevada motorcycle laws require all riders to wear a helmet. Helmet use may factor into liability and compensation discussions following a crash.
