By riding in a paceline, cyclists reduce wind drag by up to 50%. Hiring a lawyer should work the same way—minimizing friction and making the legal process smoother.
If you’ve been injured in a bike accident and need legal help, I am here to advocate for you and take on the headwinds of your legal challenges. Let’s move forward together.
Areas of Practice
Bicycle Collisions
Collisions are an unfortunate reality for cyclists. Even when you ride safely, distracted drivers can cause serious harm in seconds. A bike accident lawyer can help you recover what you’re owed. Insurance companies often undervalue bike claims, failing to cover the true replacement cost of your bicycle.
Defective Products
Consumers trust that bikes and gear will be safe when used as intended. When a product failure or recall leads to injury, the next steps aren’t always clear. A bike accident attorney can help you navigate product liability claims and recover compensation.
Dangerous Road Conditions
Unmarked hazards and poorly maintained roads can turn a ride into a hospital visit. Cities, contractors, and government agencies are responsible for keeping roads safe for cyclists—even during construction. If you were injured due to unsafe road conditions, a bike injury lawyer can help you take legal action.
“Life is like riding a bicycle – in order to keep your balance, you must keep moving.”
