Fatal Motorcycle Accident Lawyers Serving Briargate Families
McCormick & Murphy are Briargate fatal motorcycle accident lawyers for families after a rider or passenger dies. We file in El Paso County Combined Courts.
When a rider or passenger dies in a motorcycle crash, we treat the case as a negligence claim first. That means looking closely at how the collision happened, who caused it, and what evidence supports that account. The goal is to build a clear picture of fault before anything else moves forward.
Colorado wrongful-death law controls who may bring a claim after a fatal crash and what that claim can address. We do not guess at who qualifies to file. Instead, we walk families through how the law applies to their situation and connect the negligence investigation to the wrongful-death process.
These two pieces, the negligence claim and the wrongful-death claim, work together. Understanding fault in the crash itself lays the groundwork for the family's wrongful-death case. For details on who may file and what losses a wrongful-death claim covers, see our wrongful-death page.
What We Investigate Near I-25, Briargate Parkway, And Research Parkway
Fatal motorcycle crashes near I-25, Briargate Parkway, Research Parkway, and North Gate Boulevard often involve high-speed merging traffic, blind spots at interchanges, or turning vehicles that fail to see a rider. We look at the crash scene, vehicle positions, and any available video or witness accounts to understand exactly what happened in the moments before impact.
Records from the investigation, including law enforcement reports and any medical documentation from providers such as UCHealth Memorial Hospital North, help establish the sequence of events. We gather and preserve this information early, because details about a fatal crash can be harder to reconstruct as time passes.
- Any photos or video from the crash scene
- Contact information for witnesses
- The police or crash investigation report
- Medical and hospital records related to the crash
- The motorcycle and any damaged gear, if accessible

Who can file a wrongful-death claim after a fatal motorcycle crash in Colorado?
Colorado wrongful-death law determines who is eligible to file, and it varies depending on the family situation. We review the specifics with each family rather than assume who qualifies. Our wrongful-death page explains this in more detail.
Is a fatal crash claim different from a typical injury claim?
The negligence side of the case, figuring out how the crash happened and who was at fault, works much the same way. What's different is that the claim connects to wrongful-death law, which controls who may bring the case and what it can address.
What should we do first after losing a family member in a motorcycle crash?
Try to preserve any photos, witness information, and official reports connected to the crash. Then reach out for a free consultation so we can explain the process and what comes next for your family.
Do you handle both the crash investigation and the wrongful-death claim?
Yes. We investigate how the crash happened as a negligence matter and connect that work to the wrongful-death claim on behalf of the family. Both pieces work together to support the case.
What areas of Briargate see fatal motorcycle crashes?
Interchanges and busy corridors along I-25, Briargate Parkway, Research Parkway, and North Gate Boulevard are common locations. Traffic merging from Monument and surrounding areas can also contribute to serious collisions.
