Victoria Motorcycle Accident Attorneys
Serving those Hurt in Crashes across the Country
The freedom one feels while riding a motorcycle is often worth the risk. Yet, that risk is often created by the other drivers on the road and their negligent choices. If other drivers watched for motorcyclists and drove responsibly around them, the number of motorcycle deaths and injuries would significantly decrease. At Cole, Cole, Easley & Sciba, P.C., our motorcycle accident attorneys in Victoria hold negligent drivers responsible for their actions.
We understand motorcycle accident cases and bikers; Attorney Rex L. Easley Jr. is a former Motocross rider and recreational motorcyclist. We also understand personal injury law; since 1954, we have helped countless individuals and families obtain financial compensation for their injuries or the wrongful death of their loved ones.

What to Expect After a Motorcycle Accident
Motorcycle accident personal injury cases are unique. Not only are the injuries often more serious than car accident injuries, but there are also additional laws, protection issues, and insurance requirements that factor into a motorcycle accident injury claim.
We take motorcycle accident cases seriously, from the initial fact-finding investigation to settlement negotiations or trial by jury.
Compensation for Motorcycle Accidents
If you have been injured in a motorcycle accident caused by someone else's negligence, you may be entitled to compensation for the following:
- The injuries you sustained
- Your medical care
- Pain and suffering
- Loss of wages, and more.
If you lost a loved one to a motorcycle crash, there are additional costs you may recover, including financial compensation for the loss of financial support, loss of companionship, and mental anguish you have experienced since the accident.
Motorcycle Accident Investigation
We are a family law firm with large-firm capabilities. We have three investigators on staff — Rick Campbell, Wes Cole, and Marc Garrett — who work quickly to capture evidence of the motorcycle accident and your injuries. When necessary, they can reconstruct your accident to prove who was at fault. Like our attorneys, our investigators have handled a large number of vehicle accident cases. They know what to look for to begin building your case.
What are Common Causes of Motorcycle Accidents?
There are a number of different factors that can contribute to a motorcycle accident. Some of the primary causes of motorcycle crashes include:
- Being struck by a vehicle changing lanes without checking for motorcyclists
- Being struck by a car door when a driver unknowingly opens it in the motorcyclists path
- Unsafe driving including motorists who speed, are distracted, or are driving under the influence
- Being rear-ended by a motorist who isn't paying attention to sudden stops in traffic
- Dangerous road conditions including loose gravel or potholes
- Lane splitting in states where this is not allowed or expected

No one ever wants a need for an attorney, but if you do, I highly recommend Mr. Jim Cole and his wonderful staff. Everyone in this office is knowledgeable and friendly. They made me feel like I was more than just a client. Without a doubt, should the need arise again, my first choice would be Mr. Cole.Anna

I have gone through hell in the family court system in Texas against the father of my children, who is an attorney in our community with abundant legal resources. After years of fighting for my children, I was unjustly put in criminal contempt for not bringing my daughter to soccer practice despite following the custody agreement and the advice of my attorneys at the time. I asked about appeal options, and while the attorneys felt my case was justified, they said it would be a waste of my time and money and that only two percent of cases win on appeal. However, as a mother and a teacher, I wanted to clear my reputation and fight for what’s right. I hired a law firm to file a mandamus with the Court of Appeals, but the court denied our petition. Not wanting to give up, I decided to go to the Texas Supreme Court. After consulting with a few attorneys who were very discouraging and didn’t want to take my case, one referred me to Attorney Sam Cole. Sam told me my case was a long shot but agreed I was right and would fight for me if I wanted to proceed. He worked with me on my case and on a payment plan that worked for my situation. He always explained everything and answered questions with patience and understanding. He thoroughly researched all that had happened and the law that surrounded the issue. Sam treated me as a person and not just a paycheck, and had I lost in the Supreme Court, I would still be writing this review. However, the Supreme Court did rule in our favor, and after more than 2.5 years of this hanging over my head, I am completely vindicated. I hope the outcome of my case will help prevent this from happening to others in the future.Pamela J.

Chuck Cole and his staff did a wonderful job representing my son, daughter, & son-in-law after they were struck by an intoxicated driver while they were pedestrians in San Marcos. He kept them informed & up-to-date, returned phone calls promptly, was extremely encouraging and caring, and did a great job of legal representation.Bradley K.

A little over a year ago, I was in a car accident of no fault of my own. Initially, the person's Insurance company was ok with me. They took liability and told me to take my car to get it fixed. They also informed me they were sending a check for the repair and gave me a rental. After three days, they called and said they were voiding the check and totaling my car! My car had been at the repair shop and was 90% ready. I was SO stressed out, crying, and had no idea what to do! I went to see Luther Easley. I explained the situation to him, and he assured me he would handle it all for me. He gave me such peace of mind immediately. I cannot express the relief I had knowing he was handling everything for me. Luther was kind, patient, and very informative of each step he was taking regarding my case. He was honest, open, and upfront about everything. He never sugar-coated anything. It wasn't about the money for me, but Luther Easley was able to make them repair my vehicle AND won a substantial settlement for me. God forbid you were ever in a car accident or any other kind of accident, but if so, I would highly recommend Luther Easley at Cole Cole Easley Sciba Law Firm. He was the best! Also, his assistant, Donna, was so nice to deal with! The entire staff was very kind and professional! I know everyone thinks lawyers are just out to take your money, but in my situation, I was so grateful to have Luther Easley as my lawyer! He DESERVED and EARNED every penny! I would have been screwed without him; for lack of better words! Thank you, Luther Easley, and kudos to you! You truly are one of the best attorneys in Victoria!Trina H.
