How Do Bicycle Accidents Occur?
Unfortunately, bicycle accidents happen all the time, and due to a variety of reasons, causing injuries that range from minor, such as bruises, fractures, and sprains, to serious, like brain trauma and paralysis.
Common causes of bicycle accidents include:
- Distracted driving: When car drivers are distracted and are busy texting or eating and drinking while driving, it can be easy to miss a bicyclist entering your blind spot, or riding out in front of you.
- Impaired driving: Drivers who are drunk or on drugs have a slower response time, and may not brake until it’s too late.
- Reckless driving: Some drivers don’t obey road laws and drive through stop signs, go past the speed limit, fail to signal, and change lanes suddenly, which creates danger for everyone within vicinity.

“Phenomenal Team!”
The team here is nothing short of phenomenal. I reached out about my case on a Sunday afternoon from the hospital and we spoke before the evening was over. Since then, they have been happy to answer any question I have, and walked me through the entire process from handling my no-fault insurance to ultimately getting a settlement offer.- Conor

“I am grateful to her and her firm for their expertise and diligence.”
Almost 4 years ago I was struck by a delivery truck while on my bike and suffered a shattered wrist. Cathy Flanzig guided me through the process of bringing a suit against the company that owned the truck and the driver. Ms. Flanzig was professional and compassionate and realistic throughout the whole process. I am grateful to her and her firm for their expertise and diligence.- Kathe D. -

“Supported me since DAY ONE of my 2.5 year journey!”
Daniel Flanzig was with me on DAY ONE of my 2.5 year journey through the fractured legal system following a serious bicycle accident which left me with two broken wrists. The thirteen day hospital stay included surgeries on both, titanium plates implanted on both, and a severe challenge to my mental health and way of life. Unfortunately, I needed two- Marty Keiser
more surgeries on the significantly more damaged right wrist. Dan navigated me through the strained New York City Medical System, still struggling in late 2021 from the wrath of COVID. When the lawsuit needed to be moved to New Jersey, Dan seamlessly transferred the case to Joseph G. Hughes. Both men proved to be upstanding attorneys and outstanding human beings, emotionally invested in my traumatic, drawn-out experience, and committed to reaching the settlement deserved. After matters were resolved by Mr. Hughes, I received a call from Dan, closing this chapter of our time together, but cementing a lifelong connection filled with the utmost respect and gratitude. -

“Daniel & his team handled all the legal heavy lifting & logistics so that it wouldn’t be burden.”
I could not recommend Flanzig & Flanzig more highly for their expertise, skill, professionalism, and care. After being hit by a car, I was hospitalized for a month due to multiple fractures and surgeries and had to undergo intensive physical therapy—during which time Daniel and his team took care of all the medical billing, insurance claims, and legal paperwork so that my family and I could focus on my recovery. Throughout the duration of the matter, Daniel and his team continued to handle all the legal heavy lifting and logistics/administration so that I wouldn’t be burdened, and Daniel was always communicative and proactive in providing updates and answering my questions. Thanks to Daniel’s work, experience, and capability, I received a much more significant settlement on a much faster timeline than expected. I’ve recommended Flanzig & Flanzig to other friends seeking a personal injury attorney, and I am incredibly grateful to Daniel and his team for their continued work and care. Their time, understanding, and expertise mean so much to me and my family for making an incredibly stressful and taxing situation much easier.- Kathryn L. -
“Daniel s a truly amazing person, honest, & a great human being.”
Flanzig & Flanzig are the best attorneys you could possibly find. They did the best for me. The whole process from start to finish, was absolutely fantastic after a big nationwide law firm screwed up my case and Daniel was there to help me settle. Also, it’s my second experience with them. He is a truly amazing person, honest, and a great human being. I definitely recommend them.- Sameh E.
