Cover Story - Tom McGrath’s Motorcycle Law Firm

THE FIRM THAT RIDES ®

Tom mcGrath’s motorcycle law Group has been representing motorcyclists for over 30 years. Over the years, the one-man personal injury firm with a reputation for helping motorcyclists became a multi-state law firm with a staff of attorneys and legal assistants dedicated to serving clients with the same personal touch as the original one-man office. Today our firm serves our clients both in and out of court. Out of court we use our resources to maintain a presence in state legislative bodies. We work to promote laws which protect the rights of motorcyclists, and to remove laws which do not. In court we use our knowledge and skill to protect the rights of those injured by the carelessness of others. Motorcyclists have come to know us as the Motorcycle Law Group, and everyone has come to know us as the firm dedicated to protecting the rights of the injured.

Our relationship with North Carolina Motorcyclists started over 15 years ago when Liz Sorrell, a partner with the Motorcycle Law Group first began representing North Carolina riders. Even though Liz lived in Virginia, she spent about 75% of her time in North Carolina working for her clients and attending motorcycle events across the state; sometimes going from one end of North Carolina to the other within hours to meet the needs of her clients. During one of these trips Liz was asked to speak with the North Central Chapter of CBA/ABATE of NC. There she met Shannon Rights who began working for the law group as a part time event staff person. Now, years later, Shannon is the NC Coordinator for our North Carolina team. She comes from a family of bikers who started her out on the tank of a Harley before she was a year old. Shannon is the contact person for Tom McGrath’s Motorcycle Law Group, handling events, donations, and PR for our team along with scheduling our attorneys out to meet with riding groups, clubs, and organizations across North Carolina. Shannon is an avid rider of both street bikes and dirt bikes. She currently rides a 2015 Harley Street and a Kawasaki TTR225. In her free time, she is a member of the Historic Motor Maids, the Sgt at Arms for Chrome Angelz RC Fierce & Free, the State Information Director for CBA/ABATE of NC and an Assistant State Rep for Motorcycle Riders Foundation. She is an AMA certified Road Captain, Member of Winston Salem HOG, Lifetime Member of Charlotte CBA, MSAP Instructor and Certified in Accident Scene Management.

Jessica Litterilla is the lead paralegal for the North Carolina office. She began working with the Motorcycle Law Group as a part time event staff member. In February 2020, she came onboard full time as the paralegal for the Raleigh office. She rides a Honda Spirit and is building a Honda Rebel Bobber. Her and her husband have 2 daughters, Ari, and Lorelei.

Tyler Stiles is (one of) the North Carolina attorneys for Tom McGrath’s Motorcycle Law Group, and practices out of the Raleigh Office. He has been riding for 8 years and has traveled through 19 states on two wheels (including a coast-to-coast trip on a Sportster), with plans to ride through another 6 this summer. His go-to bike is a Triumph Street Triple, but also rides an Ultra Classic or his Sportster depending on the day. In addition to being a dedicated trial lawyer working on behalf of North Carolina motorcyclists, Tyler is the registered lobbyist for the Concerned Bikers Association of North Carolina, and an active member of the Motorcycle Riders Foundation, American Motorcyclist Association, Harley Owners Group, and Goldwing Road Riders Association of America. He does as much maintenance on his own motorcycles as time allows, recently having upgraded his Sportster from an 883 engine to a 1275. When he is not in the office or out at events (or riding between), he is typically spending time with his wife Bailey and their two cattle dogs, Kona and Nux.

Dexter Rights began riding when he was 3 years old on a minibike tearing up the streets in his Winston Salem neighborhood. He moved to MX racing in his teens along with purchasing his first street bike, a Yamaha 500 at 16 years old. He currently rides a 2007 Softail Custom or a 2011 Ultra Limited along with a 2 stroke CR500. He is the owner of 704 Auto Repair and works part time for the law group as mechanic, trailer driver and event person.

Our team is proud to support causes close to the motorcycling community. Outside of our offices we educate lawmakers on causes that impact riders. We fight against unfair legislation that negatively impacts motorcycling, and we work with legislators to enact laws that protect the rights and safety of all riders. Personal injury lawyers at the Motorcycle Law Group routinely provide riders, as well as riding clubs and organizations, with free legal advice, and in many circumstances offer legal representation at little or no cost. We also regularly donate to charitable causes close to the motorcycling community.

If you believe that you have been the victim of negligence, contact one of our personal injury lawyers at 1-855-LAWRIDERS.
