BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN ACCIDENT ATTORNEY
Drivers owe a strict, uncompromising legal duty of care to the most vulnerable people on the road: pedestrians and bicyclists. Operating a motor vehicle is a massive responsibility. When a careless, distracted, or aggressive driver fails to pay attention and strikes you, it is not an unavoidable accident—it is a gross, actionable violation of their legal mandate to share the road safely.
The at-fault driver’s insurance company will immediately attempt to weaponize your vulnerability against you. They will try to claim you darted into traffic, rode outside the designated bike lane, or weren’t visible enough, all to protect their corporate bottom line. We do not tolerate victim-blaming. We go on the immediate offensive to target the driver’s negligence. By exposing their failure to uphold their duty of care, we systematically dismantle their defense, hold them strictly accountable, and force them to pay heavily for the damage they inflicted upon you.
Distracted driving, failure to yield, running red lights — we identify the cause, gather the evidence, and establish fault clearly before the other side has a chance to muddy the waters.
Bicycle and pedestrian injuries often involve long-term consequences that aren't immediately apparent. We work with medical professionals to document the full extent of your injuries — including TBIs, spinal injuries, and future care needs.
Insurance companies make low first offers to cyclists and pedestrians because they expect you to accept them. We push for the full value of your claim — and we're not afraid to go to trial if your case requires it.

Past results do not guarantee future outcomes. Each case is unique.
In most cases, the driver bears primary liability — especially when they failed to yield, ran a red light, or were distracted. In most states, comparative fault rules apply, so even if you were partially at fault, you may still recover damages.
Not using a crosswalk doesn't automatically eliminate your claim. Drivers have a duty to exercise reasonable care toward all pedestrians — regardless of where they're walking. The details of your case matter, so call us for a free evaluation.
No — and this is common in bicycle and pedestrian accidents. TBIs, spinal injuries, and soft tissue damage often don't present fully until days or weeks later. Seek medical attention immediately, and document everything. Call us before making any statements to insurers.
Statutes of limitations in your jurisdiction may vary, but generally, it is one to three years from the date of the accident. However, acting fast preserves crucial evidence — don't wait.
Local, state, and federal governments shield themselves with “sovereign immunity” and deploy brutally short, strict deadlines designed to trap you and destroy your case before you even reach a courtroom. We do not let them hide behind their bureaucracy; we execute their exact administrative requirements to strip away their immunity and force them to pay.
