Bike Accidents
A leisurely ride or a commute to work can quickly turn tragic if you are struck by a motor vehicle while riding your bike. Whom can you turn to, to make sure you are not hurt a second time by the insurance companies, that will do everything they can to avoid compensating you for your injuries?
I bring more than 37 years of experience to personal injury cases in Indianapolis and know what it takes to achieve results for the injured. Whether your case can be settled through negotiation, resolved through mediation, or won at trial, I am prepared to do whatever is necessary to maximize your compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, and lost wages.

How Can Cyclists Protect Themselves?
Cyclists don’t have the safety valves of seat belts, windshields, a frame or doors. That’s why it is so critical to have safety equipment such as helmets. They can literally make all the difference between life and death in a bike accident. It is also critical to follow the rules of the road, just like you would in a car. When cyclists signal their intentions clearly and follow the rules of the road, they are less likely to be involved in an accident.
However, if doing the right things to protect yourself has not prevented a serious injury, you need an attorney on your side to make things right. I will fight for your rights and seek out all sources of recovery, including your own auto insurance policy. Injuries in bike accident cases are almost always serious, including traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries and severe fractures. I will work to make sure you have the resources necessary now and in the future to protect your quality of life.
