Kaiser Romanello, P.A. — Florida motorcycle accident attorneys serving Hialeah and Miami-Dade County. Available 24/7 · No fee unless we win.

Why Injured Hialeah Riders Call Kaiser Romanello

Motorcycle crashes tend to cause the most serious injuries and draw the most skeptical insurance adjusters. Many carriers — and some jurors — start from the assumption that the rider was to blame. Overcoming that bias takes real investigation and a firm willing to try the case, not just file a claim and settle for the first number offered.

Kaiser Romanello, P.A. represents injured riders throughout Hialeah and Miami-Dade. Founding partners Lorne Kaiser and Steven Romanello handle cases personally, and both are trial attorneys prepared to take a claim before a Miami-Dade jury when an insurer won't pay fairly. We work on a contingency fee — nothing to start, and no fee unless we recover for you.

Where Hialeah Motorcycle Crashes Happen

Hialeah's dense grid and fast expressways put riders in constant contact with turning and merging traffic. We regularly handle crashes on:

• The Palmetto Expressway (SR 826) and Gratigny Parkway (SR 924) — high-speed merging and lane-change collisions.
• Okeechobee Road (US-27) — a heavy truck-and-commuter route with frequent serious crashes.
• West 49th Street, LeJeune Road, Red Road (W 57th Ave), and East 4th/8th Avenue — busy arterials where left-turning cars strike riders they "didn't see."
• Intersections and driveways across residential Hialeah, where turning and pulling-out vehicles are the classic motorcycle-crash cause.

Serious motorcycle-crash trauma in Miami-Dade is often treated at the Ryder Trauma Center at Jackson Memorial Hospital. Injury lawsuits are filed in the Eleventh Judicial Circuit Court for Miami-Dade County — we handle the filings, deadlines, and evidence preservation so you can focus on healing.

Why PIP Doesn't Cover Motorcyclists (and Why That Can Help)

This is the single most important difference between a motorcycle claim and a car claim in Florida.

There is an upside. Because you are not covered by PIP on the bike, you generally are not held to the serious-injury threshold that limits car-crash victims — so you may pursue the at-fault driver for pain and suffering without first proving a "permanent" injury. Whether that applies depends on the facts, and it is one of the first things we evaluate.

Florida's Helmet Law and Your Claim

Whether or not you were wearing a helmet, the at-fault driver is still responsible for the crash they caused. Helmet use goes to the extent of certain injuries, not to who is to blame.

Fault, Comparative Negligence, and Rider Bias

Insurers routinely try to pin blame on the rider — because in Florida your percentage of fault directly cuts your recovery, and past a point ends it.

We build the fault case early — the crash report, scene and vehicle evidence, camera footage, and witness statements — so the insurer cannot fall back on "the biker came out of nowhere."

Why UM/UIM Coverage Matters So Much for Riders

Because you have no PIP and Florida doesn't require drivers to carry bodily-injury liability coverage, the at-fault driver may have little or nothing to pay a serious motorcycle injury. When that happens, your own uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage is frequently the difference between a real recovery and none.

Compensation in a Hialeah Motorcycle Crash Claim

Motorcycle injuries are often severe, and the compensation a claim may seek reflects that:

• Medical expenses — emergency and trauma care, surgery, rehabilitation, and future treatment.
• Lost wages and lost earning capacity — income missed now and the long-term effect on your ability to work.
• Pain and suffering — physical pain, disfigurement, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life.
• Property damage to your motorcycle, and where gross negligence such as drunk driving is involved, punitive damages.
• Wrongful death damages — for families who have lost a loved one, including loss of support, companionship, and funeral costs.

Every case turns on its own facts, injuries, and available insurance. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome.

Florida's Two-Year Filing Deadline

Because deadlines vary by claim type, the safest step after a Hialeah motorcycle crash is to confirm your specific deadline with an attorney as soon as possible.
