If you have been injured on a motorcycle because another motorist made a left turn into your path, you want an experienced motorcycle injury lawyer to help you get full and fair compensation for your losses. Under the California Vehicle Code, any driver intending to make a left turn must yield the right of way to all vehicles (including motorcycles) lawfully coming from the other direction and close enough to constitute a hazard (California Vehicle Code, Section 21801). Unfortunately, many drivers fail to exercise the necessary degree of care to determine if a motorcycle is approaching and how much time they have until it arrives. Others simply assume that you will yield to them since they are bigger.
At Weber & Nierenberg, we have more than a quarter of a century of experience representing motorcycle injury victims, including countless motorcyclists injured in left-turn accidents, throughout the greater San Francisco Bay area and northern California. We place a priority on personal service and attention, working directly with you throughout your case, from your first meeting with us to the resolution of your claim. We have the flexibility and prompt response time you expect from a small law practice combined with the experience and resources customarily found only at a large law firm.
Contact our office by e-mail or call us at 1-866-288-6010 for an appointment. Your first meeting is without cost or obligation.

One of the most frequent causes of a motorcycle accident injury is an illegal left hand turn made by a careless or negligent motorist. According to state law, a driver making a left-hand turn must yield to any vehicle lawfully coming the other way that will cross the path of the turn before it is completed. Many car and truck drivers either fail to accurately assess whether a turn can be safely completed or fail to use the necessary care to see a motorcycle coming. Even though you may not collide with the other vehicle, the need to unexpectedly and quickly brake may cause you to lose control of your bike.
We help motorcycle accident victims who have sustained all types of injuries, including serious and catastrophic losses such as broken bones, scarring and disfigurement, traumatic brain injury (TBI), spinal cord trauma, paralysis, and amputation. We also represent families and individuals who have lost a loved one in wrongful death claims involving motorcycle crashes.
We will help you seek recovery for all losses sustained in a left-hand turn accident, from lost wages or income to medical expenses, physical pain and suffering, and the loss of companionship or consortium.
