We are avid cyclists and safe street advocates with a combined 65 years of experience litigating on behalf of seriously injured crash victims in New York. Our firm offers the unique difference of being both an accomplished Personal Injury law firm as well as being dedicated bike and safe street advocates. Our advocacy worked has helped change the New York cycling landscape by bringing justice to victims of negligent and reckless drivers as well working with local advocacy groups to make our streets safer through legislative changes and more livable streets. We have helped get negligent drivers off the road when the police and justice system failed to get this done.
Partner Daniel Flanzig is a member of the Board of Directors and a legal advisor to the New York Bicycling Coalition, New York’s only statewide bicycle advocacy group. As a “Bike Law” educator with Bike New York, the country’s leading bike education program, Daniel conducts monthly bike law education programs around New York City on what to do after a crash. With the release of Revel Scooters, new e-bike and e-scooters legislation and ever changing micro-mobility laws, we strive to keep active New Yorkers educated and safe on the use of these devices.
With offices in both New York City and Long Island, we are able to represent cyclists, pedestrians, and other crash victims throughout the New York Metropolitan area. We are and remain a leader in the safe streets movement working everyday to make New York a better and safer place to ride and walk.
