Experienced Injury Attorneys for Road, Watercraft & Pedestrian Victims
Catastrophic Injuries
Serious harm to the brain, spinal cord, and internal organs. We fight for maximum compensation when the damage is life-altering.

Doorings, right hooks, crosswalk hits-drivers claim you "came outta nowhere." We prove what really happened.

When motorists fail to abide by the rules of the road, pedestrians pay the price. We make the driver pay instead.

"Lenore Shefman is a champion. I wasn't sure I could get any result after my injury that could come close to making me whole. She slogged through years of delays and a mess of uncertainty to a victory that exceeded all of our expectations. She is terrifying and terrific, badass beyond belief, and as formidable a counsel as you could hope to have at your table."

We're With You At Every Turn.
Early Settlement
The vast majority of our cases settle before going to trial, with some resolving even before a lawsuit is filed. The right attorney will evaluate your case, determine the best time to file your lawsuit and decide if it should go to trial.
Mediation
During litigation, the Court orders cases to attend mediation. This provides clients with an opportunity to resolve their case before going to a jury trial. The majority of cases are settled before reaching trial.
Trial
When taking your case to trial is the best option, we deliver results in the courtroom. Cyclistlaw boasts a 99% success rate and has secured multi-million and several hundred-million-dollar verdicts and settlements in cases of all magnitudes.
Cyclistlaw stands out as trial lawyers who genuinely connect with jurors. Their authenticity and deep understanding of every detail of your crash, the medical impact on their clients, and the overall effect of your injury on every aspect of your life enable them to get to the heart of your case.
