Law Practice Areas for Cyclists

If your loved one has died from a bicycle accident, your family has been emotionally shattered and devastated with sorrow and grief.  Your family should have a highly experienced bicycle accident lawyer to ensure that your loved one’s legal rights are treated with dignity and your family is given full justice.

I have been capably handling wrongful death accident claims of bicyclists for 32 years.  I help the survivors of cyclists killed in bicycle accidents fight and win compensation from the parties responsible. Giving a powerful voice to the victims of fatal bicycle crashes is one of my greatest professional honors.

Cars and trucks must treat you safely when riding your bicycle or e-bike.  If they cause you to crash, they owe you compensation.  You need an experienced and knowledgeable bicycle accident attorney.  You need a lawyer who understands the special bicycle laws in Florida, but also has unique understanding and experience being an actual cyclist.  I have represented thousands of cyclists over three decades in every nook and cranny of Florida.

I have ridden my bicycle about 120 miles per week for over 35 years all over Florida, the United States, and Europe. I have a unique understanding of the highly specialized equipment on road bikes, e-bikes, gravel bikes, mountain bikes, and commuter bikes and how we use it when riding. I have suffered serious injuries due to the negligence of motorists.

Let me give you professional legal help on your bicycle accident claim.

As a bicyclist or e-bike rider, your health and well-being depend upon the roads, trails, or bike lanes you use to be safe and fit to ride.  If you have suffered an accident because a road or trail was negligently maintained, I can help you.  You may be entitled to monetary compensation from the owner of the road or path or from the party who has a duty to maintain it.

Have you suffered a bicycle accident because your bicycle was unsafe or defective? Over the years, many bicyclists have suffered injuries when their bicycles broke or failed. Often, they were sold a bicycle that was improperly assembled or repaired. Or the bicycle’s parts, such as a stem, handlebar, or wheel, failed as they were riding.

Manufacturers and bicycle shops owe you a duty to make sure your bicycle is safe for you to ride. Call me if you have been injured by a defective bicycle. I have recovered compensation for victims of bicycle failures for decades.

Dogs without a leash can be one of the most dangerous and menacing problems for bicyclists. I know! About 20 years ago, a 50-pound dog, without a leash or fence, sprinted from his yard and knocked me over on my road bike. I fractured my collarbone. An ambulance transported me to the hospital. I suffered from months of pain. My fracture never healed completely. I incurred extensive medical bills and the cost of replacing the bike. 20 years later, I don’t have full use of my left shoulder.

Have you had a bicycle accident caused by a dog? I have been successfully recovering compensation for cyclists injured by dogs for my entire legal career.

If you have been injured in an e-bike accident caused by the negligence of another person, you have legal rights and may be entitled to substantial compensation. Personally, I have owned an e-bike for years. I have represented numerous e-bike riders. I have forced insurance companies to replace the e-bikes when they are damaged. Often the electronics make them too difficult to repair, the e-bike should be “totaled” by the insurance company, and the rider should get his e-bike replaced. I have also recovered substantial money for e-bike riders when they are injured.
